andraste: Still The Prettiest (Starscream)
So because I got to come home early from work (I went in early as well) I decided to celebrate by watching the first episode of Robots in Disguise on YouTube. (Yes, I am three quarters of the way through Beast Wars, I'm just working out which series I want to watch next *g*.)

I will not spoil all the glorious, glorious crack that the universe has in store for future viewers of this series. (Prowl's younger, flirtier brother! Optimus Prime kidnapping children and driving them from Japan to New York!) But I would just like to note that while RID!Megatron transforms into, like, five different things including a two-headed dragon, his minions are a frog, a skunk, and a flying squirrel. (A screechy flying squirrel, heh.) Like Optimus said, looks like someone left the gate unlocked at the petting zoo.

Also, last night at work I am sitting there minding my own business when a customer rings up and asks for help with his internet. He sounds kind of substance-affected, but I put him through to the right people and think nothing more of it. Until ten minutes later when he rings up and says "I have another problem, and I didn't know who else to ask. My kid won't go to sleep, because he wants to know the name of the leader of the Autobots."

Naturally I tell him that it is Optimus Prime! Then I hang up and accuse all my co-workers of pranking me. Except it was an outside phone number, and nobody not in the call centre could have known the person with the tiny robot army on her desk would answer the phone. Maybe it's just one of those weird, amusing coincidences that he found the person best able to solve his dilemma?
