You are now a part of the inner circle. Use your powers wisely.

SOME of you abuse your inner circle powers. You all know who you are.
I think it would've been useful to have a BabelFish on hand, following the dispersal at the tower of Babel.

42.
Ah man, I needed that.

A bible joke AND a science fiction joke rolled up into one joke. Epic bro!
You nerds!!! :D huehuehuehuehuehue

But you said inner circle... ever since DA:Inquisition I can't hear/read the expression "inned circle" and not think about the game...

Oh boy... I need a cup of coffee... or a red bull... or some caffeine pills... -.- zzzzzzzzzzzz

As a certified doctor of awesome television series, I command you to remedy that situation this very minute!
No, Tintin!!! Don't say that!!! Please, don't say that!!! :eek:

Here, take 1 episode of LOST per day for the next 121 days and you'll feel right as rain. When you're finished, come see me.
That's not a nice thing to do to your little friends!!! :/

Lost is a big jumbled mess!!! They started something awesome, got LOST and ended up leaving more quentions than answers!!!!

Half of the misteries remained just that!!! And that ending????

So frustrating....

No, no, no. I'm sorry, I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one. I was obsessed with LOST, I analyzed the crap out of it. Could the writers have provided better answers to some of the mysteries? Absolutely. Could they have streamlined the storyline better? Sure. But by The End they answered most of the questions, albeit indirectly. Yes, I agree that the last season was the weakest overall, but I also don't think it was as bad as many say it was and Richard's episode and the series finale were pretty great. I have 13+ books on LOST and I've now watched the series in full three times. I'm not saying it's perfect. I recognise that LOST is flawed in places, but it was a lot of fun and it really made me think. In my opinion, no other TV series has ever taken so many risks and been so ambitious in its scope. And for that, and many other reasons, I celebrate LOST for what it was, rather than what it wasn't.

Today is not starting off to be a very good day at all...:(
No no no no no no!!!

Don't go there!!!

Focus on the good stuff!! :D

Call a friend to have a but of coffee, or hot chocolate, or popcorn, or cake, or icecream... anything!!!

Go out and ride your bike through a nice park, or go ride a horse, or go play your cats/dogs/ferret....

Go to the movies by yourself and enjoy your own company!! Listen to rock music and sing from the top your lungs!!!

Pray that the Lord may give you strength!!!

And if you wanna have a good cry, do it!! It cleans the soul and makes you lighter afterwards.... :)

And for the rest, we're here!!! o/

You are passionate... I'll give you that!! I guess the only thing that made me read as much as that was Lord of the Rings!!! huehuehuehuehue And I'm still not done (History of Middle-earth is just too big)... but if in order for you to understand a series you have to go through all you did... it's just missed its purpose...

I don't know... I like those movies and series that get you thinking and all, but I need to understand what's going on without needing sources other than itself... ;)

TinTin - did you do any of the Alternative Reality Games in conjunction with Lost? I picked up a few Apollo bars at my State Fair, and had an analytics group going. Man, I was into that show.

Maybe I should start napping more often. I feel good. Plus this coffee is pretty good as well. Almost time to head out for another day of work.

Let's see what kind of hectic situations come my way.

I just hope I can shake this feeling. I hate it when you fall in love inside a dream and that weird sensation lingers after upon waking. Well, whatever. It's putting a smile on my face. Maybe I need that real feeling of adventure, wonder, and intimacy again. I'm still young. Well, not as young as I used to be. But, that shouldn't stop me from going out there and exploring.

Eh. Reality awaits.

You are cheeky! I love it. :) Oh, I understood most of LOST before reading the books. They just clarified things I may have forgotten (there's a lot to remember when there are 121 episodes). Rewatch the series a couple times and everything becomes much clearer. Some of the books I mentioned, presented their own theories about the show. Some were even published after the show ended a little over 5 years ago. 5 years? Wow. I found LOST to be hugely redemptive. That was a big draw card for me, along with the brilliant characters. Love your comment about The Lord of the Rings. I'm mildly dyslexic, but I tried reading that book in late primary school and I didn't get far. Tried again a year later, did much better and finished it (but I struggled with it). Since then, I've reread LotR many times and have read The Silmarillion (well, most of it). I've also read some of The History of Middle-earth, but I didn't get far. I hope you read this paragraph too. Haha!

Olerica, I can't remember which one it was, but yes, I tried my hand at one or two of them. I was totally bummed that the LOST University feature was only for US audiences though. Boo!

Am I??? I don't think I am... :) But then I'm not sure I really understand the word... hehehehe My mother language is Portuguese, not English... ;)

And if you understood all that just from watching LOST, than you're way smarter than I am... or at least more patient... :D

I had never heard of Lord of the Rings until I was about 21, when the first movie came out... then I just went nuts... I read LotR, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, and part of History of Middle-earth before the second movie came out... (yeah... I know what it is to be passionate about something, too hehehehe)... therefore, I can relate and undestand your fascination with the series... :) not that I agree, mind you, but I understand... ;)

Portuguese? Yes, but you write very good English. By the way, cheeky is good. :) Cheeky means to be playful, silly, fun-loving. That sort of thing. I don't know about being smarter than you, possibly I'm more patient, but I'm probably just obsessed. You've done very well yourself concerning Tolkien's works. Personally, I was frustrated that his Unfinished Tales were left, uh... unfinished. But what can you do? I'll have a talk with Tolkien about it when I see Jesus. ;) As for passion, passion is good. Hold on to it. We don't have to agree with each other about things like LOST. It's all good. Haha! God bless you, sister. I'm going to say goodnight now. Goodnight! Good day to you. :)
