February 2
 


Psych! Doctor Who is coming, but not till after this. Today is Sa'ar Chasm's birthday (he is ollllld), and I decided the least I could do would be to finally publish the 5MB5 event that's been ready for a while now but got lost in the shuffle. Get ready for three days of 23rd-century excitement in an event I'm calling Babylon 5 Three-Dayge.


You know, Third Age.


Look, if you've got a better name... anyway, here's today's content.
<ul>[*]Sa'ar starts us off with "The Illusion of Truth," one of JMS's many don't-trust-the-media pieces.[*]Next up is PointyHairedJedi with "Eyes." (Behold!)[*]And rounding out the first day is a Top 10 list from Sa'ar: The Top 10 Breakup Lines From Babylon 5 Characters.[/list]Be here tomorrow, because there'll so totally be a boom.

Old, eh? 26 years and 1 day - that makes me near antiquated. Many happy returns one day late, Sa'ar. I also appear to be first to reply - that'll mean my favorite parts haven't yet been quoted.

Lennier: You are in a turbolift. There is a hallway north of you.
Randall: N.
Lennier: You are in DownBelow. There is a turbolift south of you and a hallway north of you. There are some Lurkers here....
:) Adventure, Zork, and many other text games... remembered fondly.

Randall: And now, another comment from our expert. Professor, do you think our viewers should put on women's clothing and hang around in bars?
I wanted to be... a lumberjack!

9. Garibaldi: "What I really need is the love of a good woman -- you appear to be neither."
"Sorry, neither!" :lol:

3. Ivanova: "We're having religious differences. You don't worship me."
IVANOVA IS GOD!

Quote:

Ivanova: Those Free Mars radicals are really causing problems, huh?
Sinclair: Apparently so. There's particular concern about them trying to steal electron weaponry.
Ivanova: That really is shocking, sir.
Indeed. :wink:

Quote:

Sinclair: I think that we'll meet again. But I don't know where, don't know when...
Garibaldi: (speeds past on bike) Yeeee-haaaaah!
Ivanova: I am never, ever, touching scumble again.
That scene in itself was priceless; the fiver does it excellent justice.

Good work, all!

Oops!
Belated birthday greetings, Sa'ar! You'll have a zimmer too before you know it :P

Randall: I'm here in MedLab, where we've replaced these cryostasis units filled with unknown people with Folger's crystals. Let's see if Dr. Franklin notices.
Wow. That commercial is around 15 years old.

Quote:

Lennier: There aren't any cats on the station... except for the cat people from Felis 9.
BOOOOOOO!

In short, hilarious fiver, Sa'ar.

Quote:

General: (over BabCom) I sympathise Jeff, I really do, but our hands are tied. The secretarial staff are all on vacation, and we can't even figure out how to use the staplers, let alone the phone system. You understand how it is.
Sinclair: "I'm washing my hair" would have been perfectly acceptable too, you know.
Or "I have a headache." Nice going, PHJ.

Quote:

7. Lennier: "It's not working out -- you're too attainable."
Poor Lennier. Dumb Lennier.

Quote:

1. Kosh: "You don't understand me."
Excellent.

Nice T10, Sa'ar.

And woohoo to the B5 event!

Sheridan: Ah, Lennier, excellent. I have a proposal for you. This is Mr. Randall. I was hoping that you'd be able to show him where all the interesting parts of the station are at.
Lennier: I thought it was incorrect in your language to end a sentence with a proposition.
It hurts! It hurts so bad!

Belated Happy Birthday, old timer. :D

(Not to nitpick, but about half the formatting seems to have disappeared from my fiver, mainly stuff in italics.)

I'm not having that problem, Jedi. Try an old-fashioned reload.
