I note that's not the same as saying that you haven't shit yourself. Just not on the train.

Ha, seen at least one departure annoujnced like that in my time. Then again I have signed at least one leaving card with 'good luck with your future endeavours' which is one level below scratching a profanity into their car door.

The next couple of hours are going to be just a taste of what this site will be like when The News finally gets announced. It's the smell coming from the kitchen.

I had a joke about how if Marvel really wanted to impress milennial geeks like me by resurrecting something for the next Avengers, they'd bring back Firefly.
