Three Completely Unrelated Thoughts
1) There should so be a fanfic starring Tru Davies, George Lass, and Ned the Piemaker.**
** Virtual internet cookies to anyone who can name all three shows. (And if you can get two of them, you'll probably be able to guess an awful lot about the third...)
2) While I have a wide variety of reasons for not listening to some songs on the radio - such as crappy music, annoying lyrics, having those guys in the background who are just there to say the name of the singer at random point (usually "Beyonce!", or "Madonna!"), or so forth - I've now got one which is weirder than most.
Every time that "Romeo and Juliet" song comes on, I roll my eyes at someone comparing their love story to Romeo and Juliet and thinking that it's a romance rather than a tragedy, and I change the station - because I refuse to listen to the song until she goes back to uni and gets a better understanding of Shakespeare.
3) The backwards traffic lights outside Knox City now go forwards!
For those who have no idea what I mean (probably most of you): there's this one set of traffic lights, near my house, where the traffic light sequence is the complete opposite to normal - sort of like normal traffic lights go 'clockwise', and these go 'anti-clockwise', or something.
Except now they don't - they go the same way as all the others.
And it's weirding me out, because the Wrong Way Traffic Lights now go the Right Way, which is just completely wrong, and it feels very NOT RIGHT watching them going the Right Way, because they're supposed to go the Wrong Way, and it's all...
*whimpers*

ETA: because I refuse to listen to the song until she goes back to uni and gets a better understanding of Shakespeare.
You are a wise woman.

Oh, well done! Yep, the third one's Dead Like Me.
You are a wise woman.
Why, thank you kindly.

But the song is missing the tragicness altogether.

(Can't you just see it? Ned trying to touch the guy before a minute was up, Tru trying to stop him, and George just trying to work out whose soul she has to take...)

Also, she looks VERY pretty in a corset!

I predict that when I get back to Australia this will either really freak me or involve me in a car accident. I'm sure the Knox light order is still firmly hardwired into my brain.

Maybe I could talk them into a spin-off with Emerson and Olive.

It's rather annoying that I keep getting into all these shows, knowing that they got cancelled, and that I'm going to want more.
