I owe you all a tenner

Hey RBR, remember a month or so ago when I wagered that I couldn't cry? I bet a tenner on it, made an entire post about it as well. Well, it looks like I owe you that tenner. Or maybe I don't, who the fuck even read that post? Who the fuck am I kidding? I have no fucking readers. I guess I'll just finish this post for the benfit of my sanity. What fucki- scooobly da do bopbop wheeee!


So, I just watched Serenity - the movie ending to the TV series Firefly. What? You've never heard of it? Wikipedia that motherfucker. ... Okay, you did? It sounds awesome doesn't it? Now go fucking watch it. I can wait.

Right, so I just watched Serenity. It seems the film added a new rule that the show lacked. Anyone can die. Goddamn, did they add that rule. This is where the crying comes in. They killed two fucking awesome characters. Shepard Book, and Wash. These were both well characterised, realistic characters. These were people you could meet on the street, in real life. They both had little quirks and flaws, which helped make them so awesome. Wash was like a big kid, playing with dinosaurs in between jobs, cracking jokes to lighten the mood. He was also badass when needed, and generally fucking awesome.

Book was a badass preacher, who councilled the crew in times of need, provided a voice of reason for everyone and knew a shitload of shady stuff. While he wasn't one of my favourite characters, he was still a good character. Hell all the characters in that show were awesome. Seriously, if you're reading this and you haven't watched Firefly/Serenity then fucking watch it. It had the best characters, storylines, the best fucking everything.

A shout goes out to River, the badass psychic mentally unstable teenager. She seemingly sacrificed herself to rescue everyone else, and I choked up like a bitch. They couldn't have killed my favourite character could they? Well, no they didn't. She showed up againt a few minutes later, surrounded by the corpses of the bad guys. Fucking Badass.

So yeah, if you actually read that post where I made that bet then tell me and I'll give you a tenner. It's money well lost I guess. It means I'm less of a robot and more of a human.
