I mean we skip the 13th floor in buildings all the time. Same with room --13 in hotels and apartment buildings.

In China where 4 is bad luck they skip the 4th, 13th and 14th floors just to be sure.

So why not just skip ahead to 2014, and then we can all tell our kids about the awesome stuff that happened in 2013 like the awesome Flash Gordon reboot, Michael Bay giving up film making and that time Obama and Seal Team 6 teamed up to defeat Zombie Bin Landen.

I promise it will be a lot more awesome than the real 2013 will be.

So who's with me?

Happy 2014!

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

You can just throw sentances like that around willy nilly. For some of us the wound that is the cancelation of Firefly is still too raw to think about.

I liked when CNN showed that clip of Obama with the disembodied head of Zombie Bin Laden, and then threw it at the crowd and they tossed it around like a beachball at a Phish concert. Best fething State of the Union Address ever.

They DID put it on DVD (at least in Germany, and THANK GOD in the original language). I just watched the first episode again this night

It's been almost 10 years. Let it go.

Besides, without Firefly getting canned, we'd not have had the awesomeness that is Castle (and the yummy Stana Katic).
And Joss would still be directing mediocre TV instead of umpteen new spandex-clad superhero movies.


On second thoughts, bring back firefly (only to stop him making more of the latter).

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Obviously the highlight of 2013 was North Korea's magnanimous decision to allow all foreign devils to govern themselves in the aftermath of Kim Jong-un's glorious global conquest.

Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

You raise a vailid point. Stana Katic is pretty bangin and there is a huge amount of Firefly references in Castle. While i agree that we need less Super hero movies its hard to say that Avengers wasnt awesome.

Fixed that for you. Heck, I even added a couple of apostrophes and some proper punctuation for free while I was at it.

Remakes then.....

Don't start on me with the apostrophes. I wrote that post on my tablet and for some reason it doesn't like punctuation. It happens all the time. Stupid technology.


Now that i reread my first post i notice a fairly glaring mistake. I left a "t" and somewhat ironically an apostrophe of the end of "can't". It completely changes the post.

Remember when GW actually lowered their prices in 2013? That was amazing! Unfortunately they raised them to their normal levels, to all you people who spent the year in bed.

I know, 2013 was such a good year, firefly season 2, the death of zombie bin laden, GW massive price crash (come on guys, admit it, every one of bought the 'rogue trader style' army deal, 2 rhinos for a tenner ), oh, and Bullfrog leaving EA and making Dungeon Keeper 3,

Ah Those were the days, Happy 2015!
