Heroes

Recently, I have been watching the first few episodes of Heroes... a new american TV series which is yet to hit these shores. The general premise is that people start to manifest superpowers.

So far, what I've seen can only be appropriately described as "office chair mighty". If you do not understand this reference then you should consider yourself both blessed and cursed in terms of your cultural exposure...

Yup - the first two can be found somewhere in the video folder (available via the desktop) and the others are in the completed downloads folder.

I've only watched two more than you at the moment... and I think episode 7 should be downloading as we speak.

Groovy.

Also, now that I think about it, 'office chair mighty' is a very weird phrase. And yet these days it seems so familiar...

I don't know what it refers to! *clueless*

It's a "Geordie Star Wars" reference. To understand, you'd need to see a certain scene from the aforementioned travesty/work of art involving Admiral Ackbar and his particularly enthusiastic admiration for his new chair.

Geordie Star Wars! :D

I can't remember the exact quote, but it's from Admiral Ackbar... hmm... how does it go again...?

"Someone call office supplies! These new chairs are fookin' MIGHTY!"

Ah, yes! That's it. A classic quote by anyone's standards.
