The definition of a Sark

serialkarma and I are trying to explain the lure of Alias, a show *I've* only seen a good dozen episodes between us, to issaro. And she, brilliant girl she is, had the presence of mind to ask the best question ever: What’s a Sark?.

Dude. I need that on an icon.

Not who or how, but *what* is a Sark? Yes, much laughter ensued. She then asked another great question: “What kind of name is Sark anyhow? It sounds like a new video game or some kind of file hacking program. Definitely could be a noun turned verb a la Buffy (off to Sark some bad guys). What kind of parents did this guy have? Or is it his last name? Or better yet, is he pulling an Indiana Jones and his real name is Rufus or something and he just wants to be cool?”

*adores issaro*

Funny, yes, but also perfectly legitimate questions. I mean, who would Seth be if we only called him Cohen, or Sid? What about Lex if he was just “Luthor.". You see what I’m saying? A name is important, even if you lift it from the dog. Otherwise Sark is not just a name but a multipurpose word. Like Fuck.

In other news, it’s Ryan’s birthday. Did you know that? Celebrate, damnit!

It’s also the most magnificent, talented, slightly insaneimpudent_rabbit’s birthday. Celebrate, damnit!

The Coldplay video for ‘Moses’ has boy kissing. Yes, really. You can celebrate that, too.
