That is so _not_ Tit.

Colin just bought a Sony Playstation 3.
He purchased it, ostensibly, as a way to acquire a supposedly ‘future-proofed’ Blu-Ray player at a reasonable price. I say he’s full of it.

Behold, for unto thee I doth giveth my mighty wisdom. (If you’re a chick, you can have something else mighty.)

No really. This is all my fault. Unconscionable, really. Inexcusible.

No, Locke won’t throw a knife at you. Sayid won’t snap your fool neck, Sawyer won’t give you the squinty eye and call you a nickname, and Jack won’t just stand there and cry impotently.
