Pariah

Today on social media, Claudia Christian said she had been asked how much she knows about the upcoming Babylon 5 reboot. This was her response:
 
"Only Joe knows that for now, so you should go bug him about it.  He won't tell you, but the results should be amusing."

Sometimes, the problems solve themselves.
 
Is it bad to think this way?

I'm willing to give it  chance, simply because JMS is involved. But I'm skeptical. 

A couple of years ago I was having my kids sign up for Chromebooks from the class cart. I pointed out the printed form for them to use and told them to do their best Taylor Swift. I got a couple of quizzical looks, so I explained, "Find a blank space, write your name."
 
One of my students (who'd had me for a different class the previous year) groaned and said, "Mr. P, that's the worst joke you've ever told."
 
I responded with, "Okay, number one, that can't possibly be true." He reluctantly nodded in agreement. "And number two, why you gotta be so mean?"

The poll is up!
 
Yeah, it's kind of a surprise to me, too.
 
Huge thanks to everyone who participated!

I told my wife she should embrace her mistakes.

She hugged me.

Oh, just a little bit dangerous   You pack your bag, you take control
You're moving into my heart and into my soul
Get out of my way, get out of my sight
I won't be walking on thin ice to get through the night   Hey, where's your work? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name   Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous   You turn around, so hot and dry
You're hiding under a halo, your mouth is alive
Get out of my way, get out of my sight
I'm not attracted to go-, go deeper tonight   Hey, what's your word? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name   Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
Oh, just a little bit dangerous   Hey, hey, hey, where's your work? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name   Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous   She's armed and she's extremely dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
Oh, just a little bit dangerous   Sa!
Hey, where's your work? What's your game?
I don't know your name
Hey you, oh, just a little bit dangerous
I don't know your name (dangerous)   Due to the exceptional weakness of this song, play loud!

One, two, three, four walking like a man
Hitting like a hammer
She's a juvenile scam
Never was a quitter
Tasty like a raindrop
She's got the look   Heavenly bound
Cause heaven's got a number
When she's spinning me around
Kissing is a color
Her loving is a wild dog
She's got the look   She's got the look (She's got the look) She's got the look (She's got the look)
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
And I go la la la la la she's got the look   Fire in the ice
Naked to the t-bone
Is a lover's disguise
Banging on the head drum
Shaking like a mad bull
She's got the look   Swaying to the band
Moving like a hammer
She's a miracle man
Loving is the ocean
Kissing is the wet sand
She's got the look   She's got the look (She's got the look) She's got the look (She's got the look)
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
And I go la la la la la she's got the look   Walking like a man
Hitting like a hammer
She's a juvenile scam
Never was a quitter
Tasty like a raindrop
She's got the look   She goes (na na na na na na)
She's got the look   She's got the look (She's got the look) She's got the look (She's got the look)
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
And I go la la la la la she's got the look   What in the world can make you so blue
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
And I go la la la la la (na na na na na na)
She's got the look
She goes (na na na na na na)
She's got the look, she's got the look
She goes (na na na na na na)
She's got the look, she's got the look
She goes (na na na na na na)

"That guy behind me was really not happy that I slowed down for that red light."
 
"He'll be even more unhappy when he's roasting in Hell for being a jackass."

My Mom used to say, "If you're looking for sympathy, try the dictionary. It's between sh*t and syphilis."
 
That seems appropriate just about now.

"I'll be a son of a bitch if I go to your funeral, Ty."
 
"Yes you will, sir. But we'll talk about your mother when I get back."

Heavy is the head that wears the fracking crown...

Unless Simon or someone else higher up chooses to over ride me, in this thread, folks can post "Fuck Covid". I'll even make a note of it in the F word sticked thread. 
 
My sympathy for you, your wife, her friend, and his poor kids.
