]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @mattclary: Here is a question that you have to honestly ask yourself (and I mean honestly, so don't even bother to answer here)...

Do you think it would the it be any better if was a guy and a girl?
How about two girls?

We are talking about it because it is a Sci-fi sort of topic.
The fact that it is two guys is really irrelevant.
(on the Sci-fi front I laughed and thought wouldn't that disrupt the circuit?)

@moff: Classic Moff, Classic.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @mattclary:
Think of it this way. We have to sit through TONS of hetero crap, especially romantic comedies and still try to appreciate the story. Considering this was written by gays, you could cut it some slack and learn to like it for the story.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @mattclary: Hmmm. I'd put money on the gay guy in the cubicle next to me being cooler than you.

Chicklet

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @mattclary: I used to agree, and I then I found out how much easier it was get blow jobs from men, and I was like, "Hey, that's pretty cool!"

moff

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> That was hot. And we know who the top is ;)

Transuranic

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> I don't have a problem with people being gay, to each their own, but the gayness of this movie does not make it cool. And being gay does not make one cool. IMO.

mattclary

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @mattclary: I know this may come as a shock to you (heh), but gayness is cool to everybody but you. I'm sorry. You've been left behind.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @mattclary: Ok homophobia...

DocGratis

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Very, very gay. And not really cool at all. Unless you are gay.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Wow - I've been hit by lightning, and that never happened to *me* :-)

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> This is some of the most fucked up shit i've seen in a long time.

And I watched fox news last night.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> I wonder if licking 9 volt batteries is a gateway drug to electricity addiction. If so, lucky for me I kicked the habit back in grade school.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @russdanger: I don't remember the last time I took a hit of AC...

Literally,
I remember standing next to the spark timmer, and the next thing I remember was everyone look at me and standing over me.. asking if I was ok..

Apparently I jump backward about 4-5 feet and attracted a lot of attention...

DocGratis

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Last time that I took a good hit of Alternating Current, the only thing it got me in the mood for was screaming like a little girl and flopping around on the floor like a flounder on the dock...

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Static Electricity must be masturbation to these folks.

ManchuCandidate

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> electricity's nice if you're like out at a club and you meet some chicks and you like wanna close the deal, but i'm really all about the weak nuclear force these days. it kinda got the shaft with a crappy name, because it's SO NOT WEAK, but it's definitely like mellow.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Man what are you people talking about?

None of this was in Battlestar Galactica...

Oh I get it BSG:WTF...

Carry on.

DocGratis

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> You'd think that all those folks would have curly hair by now. And why go with the US plug standard? The standard European 220V plug has no sharp edges.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> hah! I knew they were going to start kissing LOL

MRCAB

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> That looks very odd. Kind of neat, but very odd.

@moff: The only reason I didn't was I worried that people would complain "I only want to post about 'plugging in and dropping out', but now I know that the Cylon god was the Cloverfield monster..whaaa!"

Screw it,
Moff said I can so here goes.

**** BSG:WTF! Warning Spoilers may exist,
go no further ye not yet past season three!****

Actually, I didn't have a great spoilers.. The whole "don't take my leg thing".. ehh I guess I haven't seen any cool artificial limbs on BSG... but man that was whiney.

I did like the guest spot by Maj. Kira. It took me a while to place her voice.

I knew the hybrid was going to make a direct address... That's what happens whey you say something about how you have to let her metaphysical statements wash over your mind...

I did like the insight into the fact that apparently dieing and coming back and be pretty scaring.. the normally seem to take it so well..

And the painting payoff was worth all the sweaty sexy painting session...
Take that stupid star charts!

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @DocGratis: My dear Doctor, you need to break out of that old-school, linear, hierarchical, a-place-for-everything-and-everything-in-its-right-place mode of thought. It's the 21st century! This is the Internet! New media! The consumers are also the producers!

Who cares if the post is yet another thinly veiled plea from Newitz for someone to hypnotize her and share her private netherbits with all their friends? What, the cyberpolice are gonna knock on your door if you just turn the comments into a "BSG WTF?" festival? It's like George Michael (the singer/songwriter, not the frozen-banana stand manager) said: "All we have to see / Is that I don't belong to you / And you don't belong to me / FREEDOM!"

Just don't mention if the Cylons are still the bad guys in Season Four or if they're still on the Enterprise. I HAVEN'T WATCHED THAT FAR YET.

(Now I'm gonna get myself happy...)

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> I know that io9 doesn't update on weekends... but can't we just end every Friday with a BSG:wasn't that crazy link?

People clearly check io9 all weekend..

DocGratis

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> i remember seeing this movie years ago by accident. it was wierd, funny, original and on the whole, pretty damn cool. props to io9 for bringing up this movie

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> This is the coolest/strangest/gayest thing I have seen all day. Awesome.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @keithldick: God that film gives a a head ache every time I've ever thought about it... yeas that was the pinnacle of shit.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> No weirder then Dead Ringers... Crononberg might actually like this.

tamoko

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> @monkity: We were listening.

...;)

Aethyr

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Kind of reminds me of Crash (the Ballard book/movie, not the Oscar-winner). But it kind of freaks me to see this here at all, because I had an inner dialogue earlier today about electricity addiction...

monkity

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> This is the Worst!, idea stealing movie I've seen since Circuitry Man...

keithldick

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Has anyone seen this and also the fanfic Star Trek ... err, I think it's Helena Chronicles?
The black-haired guy looks like the Doctor on the USS Helena. (Or I could be confusing STHC with their other current production, Star Trek Odyssey, so he could be the Doc on the Odyssey).
Anyone with me here?

Velireon

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> +25 to io9's Gay-Street Cred!

Seriously, who wrote this post?

Not only does it inform me of a horrible Gay Movie (i've accepted the fact that there is no other kind), but a horrible Gay Sci-Fi Movie?
Gasp!
>my heart skips a beat<
They are so few!

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> I would like to get this done just to score super high on the e-meters.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Tom Cruise/Brad Pitt Reflux (a la Interview w/ Vampire). Xenu be praised.

the memorexe

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Yeah I know about electricity. As a young girl I decided to go toward this big coil that was behind a fish market in my neighborhood. Not only did I go towards the coil, I decided, as the brainchild I was, to GRAB IT. I got a jolt that chattered my teeth and fortunately I was able to let go to only discovered that as I tried to walk away I could not move my feet but only fall to the ground. I laid there for a go five minutes before I was able to move. I got up went home and ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I'll have to admit I was wired all night but when I did go to sleep, it was the hardest sleep I had ever had.

]]> <![CDATA[The Dangers of Electricity Addiction]]> Okay, ew at the sockets in the wrists. While that is a kind of cool idea, the really low budget kills it. And the audio in the vid is unsynced.
