I think about a world to come where the books were found by the golden ones, written in pain, written in awe by a puzzled man who questioned, "What are we here for?" All the strangers came today and it looks as though they're here to stay.

Describing Television Shows I Enjoy As If I Do Not Enjoy Them

1. Avatar: The Last Airbender


A complicated rip-off of Captain Planet and the Planeteers.

2. Big Bang Theory


Nerds... (Spoken with obvious exasperation.)

3. Dawson's Creek



That melodramatic show with the kid from The Mighty Ducks.

4. Fringe


That other melodramatic show with the kid from The Mighty Ducks.

5. How I Met Your Mother


An 'awesome' show about 'awesome' people sitting in a bar talking about how 'awesome' they are. (Spoken with a dry and unenthusiastic sarcasm.)
