    On the off chance that there's an afterlife, it had better be purely Art Deco in style.

    I'd rather it be completely customizable.

    Personally I'd like a film noir afterlife that I could stereotypically narrate over.

    I like Supernatural's take on Heaven, where everyone gets their own section that's their ideal afterlife (for example, Ash the mulleted redneck's heaven is the Roadhouse). The only part that blows is that you can't get between them and visit people unless you're really good with string theory (like Ash the mulleted redneck, who apparently went to MIT).

    Supernatural's take on Hell, on the other hand...it's about as terrifying as Hell ought to be.

    Lemme guess, it also has to be underwater?

    No, but I'd love it if I could get superpowers.

    Would everyone wear fedoras and all the women have shady pasts?

    Fair enough. You can customize it any way you like... except for cubist.

    Again, it seems fair enough but I can see logical problems arising. For example, what if you have no imagination and, thus, no image of your ideal afterlife?

    You don't like cubism? Still, a cubist afteralife...yeah, not something I'd ever want.

    I don't know why, but the I've always found the thought of a customizable afterlife somewhat...boring. I mean, what's the fun of having everything the way you want it, forever?

    ...Of course, I've probably been heavily influenced by this.

    You're under the impression that you're actively involved in deciding what it looks like. It's one of those "your deepest desire even if it's not something you knew you wanted" sort of things. Also, it seems that it's also able to change, if I remember. I think Dean's Heaven changed through at least a couple of his best childhood memories at some point.

    As a side note, I'm totally aware of how bullshit the show is, considering that Dean has been to both Heaven and Hell and is still alive and on Earth (Angels did it, it was during the Biblical apocalypse storyline). I like it anyway.

    Well, the way I imagine it there's nothing stopping you from visiting someone else's so that should avoid the monotony.

    As a woman, I'd say no, not every woman would have a shady past, but yes, everyone would wear fedoras, it would always be night with a light fog and there will be a saxophone wailing in the background

    Laser pointing? Those are pure fiction. If you see the red dot on your chest (USMC Sniper's school teaches to aim for center mass, and they're the best), then the sniper's position is compromised. What you need is an infra-red scope.
    ...Of course, I've probably been heavily influenced by this.
    That's one of my favorite episodes. You win a bottle of finely aged cognac.

    The fog can be punctuated by rain, can it not?

    It's one of mine as well. I watched it about three times in a row when I first saw it. :D

    What's the difference between modern art and the rest of art?

    It's all art, it's just a period of time for it. Here's what wikipedia has to clarify for it:

    Modern art refers to artistic works produced during the period extending roughly from the 1860s to the 1970s, and denotes the style and philosophy of the art produced during that era.[1] The term is usually associated with art in which the traditions of the past have been thrown aside in a spirit of experimentation.[2] Modern artists experimented with new ways of seeing and with fresh ideas about the nature of materials and functions of art. A tendency toward abstraction is characteristic of much modern art.

    I was always wondering would I decorate in Art Deco. But that'd lead to buying a gown and copius amounts of hairwax as well in the long run I always thoughts

    also, comrade, i think you dont realize that, despite you complaining about it all the time, cubism is a major part of art deco.

    I seriously think Glee would be a much better show if they cut out most of the singing. Or at least find people who can sing.

    Stop pointing out my hypocrisies! Fine, cubism gets to live; but only as a component of Art Deco. Happy?

    Wait... wait, what? I... what is this!?

    Well when I'm stuck in my alternate form, I usually just will myself back. Just think "I must return to my normal form."

    If you haven't guessed, my alternate form is Pissed off teenager who has had enough of peoples crap.

    I don't get why people find Summer Glau even noteworthy, much less like her.

    Finished the setlist a while ago. It took about 24 hours from start to finish, including meals, sleeping, various chores, and general zoning out on the internet. 71 five stars, 12 four stars, 1 three star. Apparently I'm better at drums than I thought. Still get my ass handed to me by even the easiest songs on Expert.

    Oh, look at that, after an hour, Rock Band 3 has finished "importing" the 45 Rock Band 2 songs I selected. And by importing, I mean re-downloading off the internet. The Rock Band 2 disc wasn't even involved, it just used the save file to make sure I owned the game.
