I like the fact that you actually attribute the references right. Everyone shouting MGS gets a bit annoying, even if it has similarities it's not the only one. I assume you saw where the blackboard thing came from, as I found the link to this in that EqD post.<br /><br />One thing I especially like about your reviews is that you at times break down the similarities in a specific writer's episodes. I haven't really paid attention to who writes what, except for the one you can't avoid noticing if you do anything on the ponynet, so these are always insightful bits for me.<br /><br />Concerning your intro, whenever I'm sick I think about how you don't remember how awful it feels to be sick when you're not. (If that makes any sense). Get well soon!<br /><br />I'll also link my thoughts as I did last week if you want to read them.
