Metafilter's wish is the world's command.

Responding to docgonzo's page title, "Next up, Alyssa Milano on Fermat's last theorem." I know net neutrality isn't exactly abstract math, but this still struck me as a remarkable coincidence for some reason.

Also, that Alyssa Milano blog link looks atrocious in Mozilla; here's the front page and you can click through to the net neutrality post yourself. Or, the tearful farewell to "Charmed"!

A. "That's quite a stretch."

Yeah, OK, and if it had just been the page title, I probably would've forgotten about it. But there were some comments in-thread too that brought it to mind when I saw that "Alyssa talks about important stuff" blog post.

And what was I doing reading Alyssa Milano's blog? Well... what were you doing not reading Alyssa Milano's blog?

Thread promising gratification of wishes I am implied to have had itself promises the bliss of wishes satisfied and the personal glorification of having commanded by example or inspired by argument action on the behalf of third parties. There is nothing sweeter than watching others dance to your tune, as any child with a video game interface can attest.

Thread in fact encompasses indistinct links to non specific locations on apparently unrelated pages with little more than a browser compliance disclaimer. Expectations are sucker-punched in the metaphorical gonads with a force not comparable to a vehicular crash but nonetheless breathtaking and scrotumtightening - both in a bad way.

What have you done to my power fantasy, you sick, sick fuck?

My wish for Alyssa Milano certainly has nothing to do with abstract math, nor does it have anything to do with net neutrality.

Q: What did the banana say to the vibrator?

A: Why are you shaking, I'm the one she's going to eat.

Then Alyssa Milano masturbated with a vibrator and ate a banana. It was hot.

Man. I totally screwed that up.

Okay, I've got another one. This pirate walks into a bar, and he's got a ship's wheel sticking out the front of his pants, okay...
