Question for the readers

How are people finding this LJ? My .sigfile, through mutual friends, googling subjects or what?

[livejournal.com profile] burger_eater linked to a post were someone asked if you could go back in time and change one thing what would it be? And then you said, I wonder how long it would take for someone to pick something that would result in the deaths of millions. And then you said it was the first one.

And even though I don't know what the hell a "Benderite" is, I thought that was kind of funny. So, now you know about my high standards for friending someone.

Do you watch FUTURAMA? It has a robot character who has been known to mutter "Kill all humans" [1] in his sleep. There is a sequence where he is shown to have claimed that he always secretly said "except one" but this probably never really happened.

1: I think he muttered "Hey, sexy momma, want to kill all humans" once but the additional phrase didn't seem to make his (human) roomie any happier.

Say, maybe I should have mentioned that the robot's name is Bender.

A Benderite is someone for whom "Kill All Humans" is just sound public policy.

Hey, don't dumb it down for me buddy, I may have the most ignorant person in history in charge of my country, but I can figure that shit out on my own.

also, until this very post, I thought you were a girl named Nicoll James. Then I googled you and learned that was not so.
