The whole audience cheered when Gordon turned out to be alive and put that gun up to his head. I was one of them. If I'm not a Joker fan, I'm a Gordon fan. I'm going to go see it a second time, and maybe a third! I want to buy the DVD righ...

[10.3.4] Mach mission feedback thread: "Served"

The secondary Agent in the Meet with Gray phase of the mission used a contraction when he spoke. I'm loathe to call it a typo, but I thought I'd bring it up, since as far as I know Agents are physically impossible to cut words up and mush...

Saw the trailer at the Dark Knight showing. Looks cheesy. Like, too cheesy. I like the glowing soul people, though, they were cool.

[10.3.1] Merv mission feedback thread: "Office Party"

Could care less is often used in a sarcastic tone, meaning also that he doesn't care anyway. Since the tone is more negative than simply implying the negative comment, it adds to the level of scorn. But boy is this phrase gettin' controver...
