Things, memes, etc

au_bigbang is up waiting for an art claim. If, you know, you're interested.

Avatar meme, day 8: favourite quote.
...well, that's a challenge. The series is eminently quotable. I could go with a funny quote, or a touching and bittersweet quote. Or something about tea.
Or I could go with ... ( you know. )
In other news, I have watched a season and a half of Arrested Development in thirteen days.
It started because of Arrested Westeros, which I followed even though I'd never watched the series (why? I DON'T KNOW! IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME, I'M SURE!) which of course got me wanting to see it all in context.
Then, somewhere around the second episode of the Avatar finale (House o'Squid is halfway through! We're stretching it out so it won't be over too soon!), possibly around the time![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
piecesofalice was remarking on the need for rehearsals for Ozai's, erm, job title upgrade, coupled with the fact that he obviously didn't bother telling Azula what he had planned for her -- yes, it was around that moment that suburbannoir said, "Liz, you really need to watch Arrested Development and then make Arrested Avatar."
So, um, I did.
And I am.
Only I also got sucked into AD for its own sake. I'm not usually into sitcoms, especially sitcoms based on unlikable people being embarrassing. But it just sucked me in. Maybe because the reality is so heightened ("I may have committed some light treason.") or because it's just funny.
Although I am having trouble with Mae Whitman (a) not being a cartoon character and (b) being identical to my sister.
On the upside, a season and a half in, and I only just remembered that I hate Michael Cera! Fine work, show, fine work.
