In my situation, I think it was perfectly justifiable to talk about my "boss." Because... see... he's not actually my boss and therefore has no say in what I do, but still acts like he does. And discussing whether or not he would be demoted for "calling in sick" so he could go campaigning, or simply not showing up during Black Friday... well, that was having a discussion on the shifting of powers, not gossip. Nope! Not gossip at all. We were just getting a feel for the new management.

This post has nothing to do with this very interesting and stimulating conversation at all, but is merely to say I hereby name Mr. Stephen Fry the unofficial mascoty icon of the *Fancypants* thread. Because he's just awesome like that.

I just now, when searching for images, found out he's going to play Mycroft in the sequel to the semi-recent Sherlock Holmes film, which I must say I didn't see, because it seemed far too flashy and... No, I shan't go into my Holmesian concerns here. But I do think that he's an absolutely smashing choice to play Mycroft Holmes. Hooray!

Yeah... that's why I settled for the original, honestly. But what this means is that I need to find someone with a harpsichord and a dream...

Well, it only occurred to me to search for it after you posted that.
I implore, nay, demand you to make that your first priority, Hyena.

Cherry, No. You know that in this family, the theremin is strictly forbidden.

None of our relatives died in a terrible Tesla coil related incident, so yes.

FANTASTIC! Then I should like to put this up as an offering:
The Total Recall: Quaid: Doctor Who Theme Tesla Coil Style

Which I'm sure that you've all seen before, but that doesn't take away from the fact that this is awesome.

Isn't it fantastic? It combined REAL science with Science Fiction.

My heart melted.

And then was revived again by the electricity.

This is backtracking the conversation in here quite a bit, but Cherry, it looks like the episodes of British goodness have been taken down off The Fix. But you can still find them on the youtubes, in segmented form.

I tried to find a theremin cover of an emo band on youtube, but failed (possibly due to the fact that I only know the names of two emo bands). I think this just only shows why the genre is a failure.

There is, on the other hand, a cover of "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. Which I think just illustrates how much Gnarls Barkley is awesome.

WHY AM I TALKING SO MUCH ABOUT THEREMINS TONIGHT? I don't know, but now I really want a theremin. I... I blame Patrick Wolf. Can't beat a guy who wears lederhosen in his videos.

But he'd just take it and find a way to work it into a wonderfully modern song.
