On the list of things that suck

1. Discovering your phone has been off for two weeks, and you have an eleven-day-old message asking to schedule an interview for a position that you thought you'd be very good at. (though why they didn't bloody email me, I don't know. The whole point of putting it on there was giving them an alternative way of contact--they also have the house number and didn't call it)

2. Cherie Priest's Four and Twenty Blackbirds is told from the perspective of a kindergartner. In first person. Who sounds more like a thirty-year-old woman. I just can't read it without feeling annoyed and wanting to throw the book across the room.

Luckily, those are the only two I know of.

In other news:

No, I haven't seen the Avengers yet. Yes, I am a bit "Get off my lawn" at all the new people who are all "Oh, Black Widow is awesome" (I'm also a bit "aren't you all adorable", too)

Yes, I do like my italics tags.

I have now re-watched seasons 1-3 of ReBoot, and while it was mostly enjoyable, I would have liked less "Matrix has lots of testosterone and pissing matches" and more "AndrAIa fixes things and knifes people" with a side of "This is how the world ends in Mainframe" Flashbacks just weren't enough.

Although, I did come out of season three shipping AndrAIa/Ray, so I suppose something came of it all.

*raises hand* Can I be excused? I knew Tasha was awesome before, I just didn't read much with her in it.

Forever a Hawkeye stan tbh. Cranky archers FTW.

this has nothing to do with the fact that I played him in an RPG, nope

ReBoot! Heck, yeah!

I fully acknowledge my own lack of comic book acumen and add my voice to the Black Widow is awesome chorus. :-) *keeps eye out for signs prohibiting stepping on the grass*

Oh, and italics tags are necessary.
