Serenity
NM, this pic is so when I forget where I’ve put them you can remind me that the Serenity tickets are in the red photo box.
I got the number of our seats wrong in my text, out by one.
And this is just filler to stop the picture over flowing. Yes, I could go back and post a smaller side, but, honestly, this is much more fun, don’t you think?
And even if you disagree I don’t really care, you don’t have to read this shite you know, you could stop at any time. Whenever you wanted. You do not have a problem

Top 5
Ask me what me top 5 anythings are, *fx: Mrs Doyle* go on go on go on.
To explain a little further, in the comments ask me about something, clouds, for example. And in response I’ll tell you my top five
- clouds at sunset
- clouds that look like something else (okay, so that’s cheating, but I couldn’t find any online that I liked)
- wispy ones that you cant really see because they are so high over head, and that mean it is a nice summer’s day
- Big dark heavy ones, they look all dramatic
- Clouds with silver lining
Lifted from Max Lee Dagger, so give me a topic already. But do try to make it more interesting than clouds. Also, if I don’t have a top five you’ll just have to be satisfied by whatever I do manage to list.
For my top fives,

Braveheart
Do you remember when Braveheart came out, and everyone was going on about how great it was? Were they simpler times do you reckon, or were we just blinded by the gore?
I ask the question because now I really can’t watch that film at all without thinking how shite it is. I can still enjoy it on some level[1], but I don’t think I’ve sat through the entire film in quite a while. Even when it was the telly a short while ago and there was nothing else on at all, I still spent most of my time station hopping.
So when The Community at Large had an entry entitled Braveheart ripped apart, well I couldn’t resist now could I?
And so I found the history-film sporkers, and their wonderful take on how really wrong almost everything and anything that appeared in Braveheart was.
Wallace senior: Let’s fight the English!
Fellow Scots: Umh, ah… you know, we’re farmers… all the noblemen were killed at the meeting!
fourth_rose: Then who’s Robert the Bruce, pray?
cutecoati: And since when are the Wallaces farmers? Lower gentry, okay, but farmers?
Wallace senior: We don’t have to beat them, just fight them.
cutecoati: Now that’s what I call a strategist!
fourth_rose: And look, they got their swords hidden under the roofs of their cottages!
cutecoati: Thank God it never rains in Scotland
…
cutecoati:: Wait, let me at least get the timelines straight (no, that was not intended as a pun). William Wallace was born in the 1270s and died in 1305. Edward II was born in 1284 and married Isabelle in 1308 when he was already king and Wallace was dead!
[1] - mainly the “all Sasanach are bastard’s” level, but that’s only good for 5 minutes before it gets old. Cause everyone knows that you English peoples are evil and love nothing more than gore and blood and torture. What do you mean that’s only true in Mel Gibon films? (back)
