Pfft. He’s wearing the Scalzi mask. YOU’re the Cyberman…
Sure, Gaiman can be Cyberman. However, Mr. Scalzi gets to be the Doctor. And the Master. And Captain Picard, Mace Windu, Captain Kirk, Nick Fury, and Darth Vader all at once, for maximum awesomeness.
That is not a Coke Zero in your hand. You two timer!
Squeeeeeeeee!
So are you writing an episode of Doctor Who, John? Are you? Can we have a Scalzi Who Ep? Can we? Can we? Huh? Huh? Can we? Can we? Huh? Can we? Can we? PWEEEEASE? Huh? Huh? Can we?
I always knew there was something “off” about you, Scalzi. Now I know, you’re a cyberman!
*Flings gold dust in John’s general direction*
Oh, that explains a LOT! ;-D
I put this here bc I can’t find anywhere else to do it publicly. JS: any comment on Apple losing (yeah, they’ll appeal but they’re still gonna lose) their anti-trust suit with the Justice Dept. over their collusion and e-book price fixing? Apple seems to be the darling of Whatever readers while Amazon is the devil; IMNSHO opinion the Justice Dept. got it exactly right and Truth, Justice, and the American Way has prevailed, for now. Everyone benefits, in the long run, when monopolies are smashed, is a pretty good general principle.
I dunno. I think that pic’s been doctored.
Scalzi the twelfth doctor? I might buy that… Except I expect the next doctor to be a ginger.
I’d hoped he was a Sontaran, just ’cause I think Neil Gaiman’s imitation of a Sontaran would be awesome.
