Estelle Getty FTW.

The Latest Jmag is out now, and features my regular gadget article! This time I fearlessly lampoon a small robotic penguin. You’ve got nowhere to hide, POMI, not whilst I’m doling out hot piping mugs of justice.

In other news, Estelle Getty (the bizarre diminuitive one from The Golden Girls) has died at the age of 84. I know you all think I’m going to make fun of the show, but as it stands I’ve something of a weird fetish for early nineties sitcoms. In fact, I once did a Kara run whilst the majority of season one of Full House ran in the background (for the record, yelling “HAVE MERCY” in a raid party doesn’t make one as cool as one would think). Estelle was genuinely funny, talanted, very short and (next to Betty White of course) the best looking cast member. As such, I’m going to say something overwhelmingly cheesy as a mark of respect

Thank you for being a friend, Estelle.

…Incidentally, until recently Luke sounded almost exactly like Bea Arthur. And I do believe he’s single. Ladies.

(As a tribute to Estelle, and as final proof that I’m a damnable idiot, I’ll be naming my new Death Knight after her in the upcoming World of Warcraft expansion. It’s what she’d have wanted: the power to reanimate corpses.)
