    So, yeah, I missed a conversation about Beyond The Lampshade.

    I saw a few pages of that site, went, "So, the Goons are involved with this?"  and decided it wasn't for me.

    Because Goons and I do not make a good combination most of the time.

    so i looked in on BTL out of curiosity

    and saw a couple people with animated gifs depicting Star Wars ships blowing up the Twin Towers in their signatures

    :(

    I was so hopeful that BTL would be what it originally purported to be when it first arose. This is...disappointing.

    I know!  Seriously, how did I avoid all the interesting stuff.

    Now I'm all paranoid that they are going to be all mad because of what I've said about SA and Goons.

    Goons are absolutely not part of the reptilian conspiracy, and even if they were, they are ardent pacifists who would absolutely never think of eating you, stealing your skin, and enslaving your family.

    the TVT forums are so

    like

    nondescript nowadays.

    They're very similar to every other forum that has a large percentage of teen users and a minority of adult users.

    It's probably nostalgia but I do feel it used to be different.

    I wonder what Katrika's up to nowadays :/

    I remember bemoaning the lack of people that were actually not high-schoolers or the old farts that ran the site as far back as, like, 2010. :P If I were born in 1995 or 1957, and not 1977, I'm sure I would have fit in better.

    And Katrika was cool. I wonder what she's up to, too.

    I knew it!

    They told me, "Oh, Aliroz, you're just confused.  Goons don't even care about you specifically, you're just paranoid.".

    But I was right all along!

    -psst, she's right behind you-

    Anyways, here can I watch the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special without getting a virus or paying money or logging in or such?  Preferably legally?

    I
    mean, there were uploads of the new MLP season on youtube the day it
    aired, there were youtube uploads of Cascade the day it aired, there
    seem to be, as far as I can tell, uploads of any movie the day it first airs (not necessarily on youtube, but somewhere on the internet.).

    Not my fault that I'm not British and I don't have moneys.  I'll buy it when it comes out (because 50th anniversary of any show is significant) on video.  I'm not trying to cheat the producers, I just would like a single free watch like British people get, should they have television with whatever channel.

    I'm not a digital pirate, I don't demand free media, I would just like to do what a normal british person could do.

    A 'normal British person' would watch on BBC iPlayer. That's a UK-only service, provided by the BBC, and funded, like Doctor Who, by the British license-payer. You won't be able to watch it in the US without a proxy.

    If you're not comfortable doing that, are there maybe American alternatives?  Is it on, idk, Hulu or whatever the American equivalent to iPlayer is?

    @Aliroz http://www.hulu.com/doctor-who

    i don't know if the episode you want is there, since British people can't see Hulu's library, but they evidently have some Doctor Who so it seems like a good place to start.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i should watch that episode at some point, while it's still on iPlayer

    not right now tho

    I need to catch up on Doctor Who myself, I'm 4 or 5 episodes behind

    I also need to watch the new episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

    Thing is, I haven't watched Equestria Girls yet...Section says I don't need to do that first but it would feel weird watching things out of order

    a part of me wants to catch up on MLP, a part of me can't be bothered

    i still haven't finished season 3

    the Doctor Who episode was pretty overhyped over here, to the point where i was sick of hearing about it long before it aired

    like i mean to watch it some time but i can't really bring myself to sit thru it

    Huh, TWC has the entirety of Who's 7th season in On Demand

    I'm going to start with "Hide", since that's where I left off
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch

    and utterly bizarre

    It's a bit weird that I have access to these, actually, seeing as how we don't subscribe to BBC America anymore

    Nah, they were under "BBC America" in the list

    Apparently Time Warner Cable gives us the On Demand programming even for channels we don't subscribe to

    It was alright. It's definitely worth a watch, but I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it as a whole. It has some funny moments and good one liners, but I probably would still feel this way about the episode even if it hadn't been hyped to hell and back.
  • "in this world, in Luim, there is magic. Magic so rare and ancient and hidden that even the smallest amount can raise or raze kingdoms, and elevate men to gods. So imagine my surprise on that day seven years ago when I happened upon a wisp corpse in my swamp, as you know, the corpse of a wisp can be tended to and kindled with a small iron tinderstick. It was on that day that I became a pyromancer...."

    Dark Souls has a lot of really interesting lore and indirect storytelling. Just remember to read item descriptions and you'll get a lot out of it in that way.

    Also large parts of the game are just really fucking pretty, so there's that too.

    Say what you will about Kill La Kill, but it has some real slick translators working on it. An event involving students killing each other to retain their rank was translated as "Naturals Election", and a pun based on the words hentai (pervert) and henshin (transform) was changed to a pun involving pervert and convert.
