So I had this idea for the writers’ s strike that I thought was moderately clever. Imagine that the writers took their strike so seriously that they refused to write anything, and to further show this—instead of picketing with signs that say things like Unfair! or Management Sucks! Like you would typically see at a picket line, their signs would be filled with Lorem Ipsum. Imagine my chagrin when I saw this picture of Joss Whedon supporting the strike.
Look closely at the poster behind him.
It just goes to show you that there aren’t many original ideas left.

Gor-freakin-rammit. I can’t escape the stuff. I swear, it won’t be talking apes that will take over in the future,
It’s going to be Cicero’s “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum,” better known to us plebeian human pig-slaves as “the master language.” Lorum Ipsum indeed.
No offense to our friend Dr. Zaius… of course he’s going to take over. I guess I just got a little carried away.
But seriously, there’s a part of me, deep down, that thinks keeping lorum ipsum on a finalized piece of work is demeaning to anything it is supposed to represent. Seriously, couldn’t they have just put on Mal’s St. Crispin’s Day speech from Serenity on it?
It’s like they’re neutered vampires cheating at kitten poker.
Don’t worry. In the future when my kind rules the planet our place holder text will be your puny “Universal Declaration of Human Rights.”
“All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.”
-HA HA HA! Hilarious!
