I’m assuming you’ve seen TV Tropes. This has replaced wii.ign.com as my “type it into the browser immediately”. Should make it easier to save money and I might even have some fun playing with this for the next novel. It’s pretty funny that the next book I’ve been thinking about is to make fun of fantasy cliches (Eragon, anyone?) and then this site walks into my life.

The trouble is I may not be able to tear myself away from the reference joke geek tractor beam that it is.

You may recall my obsession with Toto’s Africa after the Jeffster episode of Chuck. This has now been exploded by a combination of my friend Lauren and my Howard Shore/Vangelis Pandora station.

This video should tide you over until Glee this fall:

“Well you can tell by the way I use my walk…”

I read the rumor mill that Heroes has a new villain. A guy named Simon with a British accent. Really? Should we expect tight black T-shirts? He’s said to be very manipulative.

Accent + Manipulative = Linderman
Sorry, writers. You have exhausted your own trope.
