Nathan Fillion's latest blog. Drive and Serenity SE get a mention.

A public blog that confirms several much anticipated releases (Drive, the Serenity SE cast commentary), recent events (like Wonder Con and his impressions of it), love for the movie "300" and his proposal for Tim Minear's middle name by deed poll.

Hooray for cast commentary!

And for that time Nathan fixed my car's transmission- my mechanic says it's working just like new!

kishi | March 13, 04:23 CET

Cast commentary, yay! I wonder how many participated. I know quite a few of the BDHs are busy these days. I'm just happy that any of them were able to do it.

hobanw | March 13, 04:28 CET

Nathan's blog is always fun!

So was that time when Nathan reset the bones in my left wrist. The duct tape is holding it together really well!

Nebula1400 | March 13, 05:30 CET

And the time Nathan set my hair! I swear, the man's a wonder with a couple of bobby pins . . .

mockingbird | March 13, 05:37 CET

He did the commentary with some dear friends, plural. Probably not Alan as he is across the country, so whom then? Let speculation ensue.
And Nathan? Thanks for the piano lessons. No one can believe how well I can play now.

Lioness | March 13, 05:42 CET

Weird. I'm somewhat baffled about this having only 5 comments. Or, I guess, now 6.

theonetruebix | March 13, 07:36 CET

But how many posts at his myspace page?

TamaraC | March 13, 07:38 CET

Shiny. Another public (not just to his 18018 friends) readable Nathan blog!

theonetruebix, no mention of the cast commentary being the secret London thing.

theonetruebix, no mention of the cast commentary being the secret London thing.

Never expected it to be. ;)

theonetruebix | March 13, 08:19 CET

Was it bad that I was nodding my head vigorously at his comments about no turn signals and inconsiderate smokers? *g*

zengrrl | March 13, 08:45 CET

And check out this development -- this blog has hit the number 2 slot on MySpace Most Popular Blog Posts list (of course, this will change tomorrow, I don't think there's any perma-link for this particular information, sorry). And there were 460,928 blogs posted today. Holy crap! Well done, Nathan! :-)

billz | March 13, 13:14 CET

I saw that. #1 was a blog about new Suicide Girls pix. I think the MySpacers are tryin' to tell him something, but I'm not quite sure what... ;)

zengrrl | March 13, 13:49 CET

Him and his damn funny. Reminds me of the time he split my sides then fixed them again, single handedly.

Is it too geeky that when he said two kinds of people and then brought up two separate examples I thought "Well, straight away there could be 3 kinds: people that pee in the shower AND signal" ? I may be broken.

Strictly hypothetically of course, but - and again I stress the hypothetically (ahem ;) - what is actually wrong with peeing in the shower (provided you don't do it in front of people - never playing football with that guy again) ? It's the same drain, right ? Peeing in the bath on the other hand, now that's a recipe for disaster.

Saje | March 13, 15:03 CET

I can't thank him enough for the laser surgery on my eyes, now I can read his blog in confidence.

Great, talented funny guy. Wish we knew something more about the secret London thingy.

The Do That Girl | March 13, 15:07 CET

and the time he rescued my cat from a house fire

gotta love him for that

rivergirl | March 13, 15:28 CET

Nathan, please pose for pics in ladies' undergarments? /shrug, maybe.

what is actually wrong with peeing in the shower

While taking a shower or just for the novelty as you happen to pop into the loo?

zeitgeist | March 13, 16:29 CET

There are two types of people in the world: those who salute Nathan as our Captain and those with no gorram taste or sense. ;-)

kispexi2 | March 13, 16:30 CET

Alternately, there are two types of people in the world: those who know and love Nathan Fillion and those who don't know (and love) him yet!

zeitgeist | March 13, 16:49 CET

It's an oldie but goodie: there are two types of people in the world, those who think you can split the world into two types of people and ...

While taking a shower or just for the novelty as you happen to pop into the loo?

Lawks, not my own shower, that'd be sheer madness. No, i'm talking about breaking into the houses of complete strangers and peeing in their shower. I mean, really, what's wrong with that ?

(or in other words, while taking one, with the water running, not on your own feet etc. - though pee from a healthy kidney is pretty much aseptic anyway. Not to mention warm ;)

Saje | March 13, 16:55 CET

This thread is heading in a creepy direction. Nice :)

zeitgeist | March 13, 16:58 CET

And there was the time he helped me get that strange guy out of my bathroom-I'd have had a hard time throwing him out the window myself.

toast | March 13, 17:36 CET

Well, theoretically, no one stands in the toilet after you pee, whereas in the shower, someone could come in after you and there they are standing where you just peed. I think that's what people find objectionable about it.

So I guess there could be two kinds of people. Those who don't stand in the toilet and those who do.

batmarlowe | March 13, 17:42 CET

I love this post! AND it is still number two poplar blog. And he has that many friends 18 thousand? Wow... I wish I was that popular :S And I am dying to know that april thing, I hope I won't be disappointed ... lol.

And well there is the classic: there are 3 kinds of people, those who can count and those who can't.

kurya | March 13, 17:47 CET

And there was the time he helped me get that strange guy out of my bathroom-I'd have had a hard time throwing him out the window myself.

Yeah, that guy was weird. I'd've helped too but I was, err, busy ;).

So I guess there could be two kinds of people. Those who don't stand in the toilet and those who do.

So now there's something wrong with standing in the toilet ? Will this madness never end ?!

(yeah, valid point batmarlowe though a) obviously you - err, hypothetically ? Or have I blown that one ? ;) - need to wash it away and b) as mentioned there's actually nothing harmful about pee from a healthy person. So really there are two kinds of people: those who know they're standing in a toilet and those whom, what they don't know, won't hurt them ;)

Saje | March 13, 17:59 CET

I just love how he words his phrases. He rocks my socks off and then he rocks them BACK ON again.

Lovella | March 13, 19:44 CET

Damn you Fillion for making me even think about all this pee stuff!! **Shakes Fist** Someone over there on the 1st page of comments wrote, "It's all pipes!" which is a famous George Costanza line. Yes, but George, you peed in an athletic club shower and someone caught you. No, I have never and will never do that. I won't say it never happened at home because you must know that warm water has the same effect on women as it does on men? But I don't make a practice of it. No, no, no.

But back to Fillion for a sec, the man is physically gifted but without his marvelous sense of humor he'd be just another, well I don't know what "another" he'd be, but I wouldn't like him, I know that.

Tonya J | March 13, 19:59 CET

Y'all are wrong. There are 10 kinds of people.

williamthebloody1880 | March 13, 20:13 CET

Those who understand binary and those who don't ? ;)

Saje | March 13, 20:20 CET

Peeing in the shower is a good cure for athlete's foot. I'm just saying.

electricspacegirl | March 13, 20:21 CET

you know, I could take this thread to a more twisted direction because of the above comment... but I won't as a courtesy to you folks, because thats just the kind of person I am.... the kind who knows not to spill their weird thoughts all over the interweb.

kurya | March 13, 21:12 CET

So a very rare kind of person, indeed...

zeitgeist | March 13, 21:13 CET

Wait a minute, there's a way to not spill your weird thoughts all over the interweb ?

Damnit, I really am broken. Maybe I missed the recall ...

Saje | March 13, 21:44 CET

There are two kinds of people in this world. People who smoke in front of others, and people who give a shit about the welfare of those around them because they understand the stink doesn't stop when the cigarette goes out notwithstanding the obvious health dangers to alll involved.

I must be a bad person. But then I don't drive so I don't pollute the atmosphere. Does that balance out? I think it does.

Simon | March 13, 22:31 CET

I will forever be grateful to Nathan for that time he helped me get my DSL hooked up. Without him, this post would not be possible.

Sister Spooky | March 13, 22:38 CET

Depends how many you smoke a day Simon ;).

Like a lot of stuff, it's a line thing, as in, where do you draw yours. I never smoked in someone's house without permission and if anyone in the group asked me not to spark up i'd just pop out the back-door without quibble or complaint (except in my own house), never smoked indoors around kids full stop and never smoked around folk eating. Apart from that, say, in the pub, well, it's an adult environment full of people doing things not that good for them who're there of their own free will. Smoking's just another one of those things IMO (until July anyway, or next month for you).

(fell off the wagon eh ? Took me about 20 goes and a chronic lung condition before I quit, no easy task. Still miss the damn things - and have the odd one here or there - even now)

Saje | March 13, 22:53 CET

Wow, this is what I get for wondering why no one was posting here.

theonetruebix | March 13, 23:23 CET

There are two types of people in this world: those who can read, and idiots who don't know I'm mocking them right now.

jmaze | March 13, 23:27 CET

Yes, b!X, it is all your fault :)

jmaze - lets not make fun of the illiterate, eh?

zeitgeist | March 13, 23:28 CET

There are two kinds of people- people who never smoked and smokers. Some of us smokers haven't smoked for years.

toast | March 14, 00:37 CET

I'll always be grateful to Nathan for that exam at the free clinic. Who knew his hands were so naturally warm.

skeezycheeses | March 14, 00:46 CET

And, apparently, so very soft.

There are two kinds of people- people who never smoked and smokers. Some of us smokers haven't smoked for years.

Finally, a dichotomous schism I can actually get behind ;). Truer words were never spoken toast.

Saje | March 14, 01:27 CET

I will forever be grateful to Nathan for the amount of time he's put into personally seeing that I quit smoking and trying to convince me to replace smoking with peeing in his shower.

However, the fact of the matter is that there are ~~four~~ ~~five~~ ~~six~~ seven kinds of people in this world - people who smoke, people who don't smoke and are fairly neutral on the subject of smoking (provided that smoke is not blown directly into their faces or houses,) people who spill their weird thoughts all over the infrawebs like so much second-hand smoke, people who don't spill their thoughts all over the infrawebs but do so only in the privacy of their own homes, people who try to guilt or shame people into quitting smoking, and people who offer huge cash incentives to smokers to induce them to quit. Oh, and there's Tim Minear, so that makes seven...

I quite like six out of those seven groups of people - see if you can guess which ones...

QuoterGal | March 14, 02:45 CET

I did a special edition commentary with some dear friends for a movie we did, and I'm looking forward to seeing it come out again.

[Doing the Happy Dance] Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

Hmmmm....wait a minute...could he be talkin' about Slither?
; )

AmazonGirl | March 14, 02:48 CET

Right there with ya QuoterGal. Fucking Minear.

What ?
