I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Someone get this man a warm washcloth

That plinkety-plonk bit of music you hear on a lot of short meme videos is from Harry Potter.

I'm currently reading the All Creatures Great And Small series by James Herriot. I never knew before how often veterinarians have to get all up inside cows' and horses' buttholes.

If you can, try to find the original British formats (the first 6 books were short and compiled into 3 bulkier ones in the US); the American editions lost multiple chapters, mostly in All Things Bright and Beautiful and All Things Wise and Wonderful (2nd and 3rd compilations, drawing from Let Sleeping Vets Lie, Vet in Harness, Vets Might Fly, and Vet in a Spin). Funny that it's the two books with "all things" in their titles that lose significant amounts. ACGAS gets a pass, mostly omitting just one epilogue. After those 6/3, the releases do match.

That looks good, nice attractive box too. (Some old paperbacks had cute cartoony covers, but no matter.) You should expect to find everything in there, no missing passages or stories. Now I feel like getting a matched set like that myself. What year was that one printed?

The thing about James Herriot is that his books might as well be titled "everyone is ignorant and wrong except for James, who is very clever".

It might be the truth, I don't know, but I got sick of reading it again and again by the end of the second book.

I lived in the countryside for five years and everyone there was stupid as all hell.

e: Although it was slightly entertaining, at least, to see from our kitchen window the neighbour sinking into the bay every single Spring at the same spot. I guess if my wife was as shouty as his, I'd take up desperate ice-fishing too.

(The bay is like one meter deep at that point. There's no fish.)
