It's tragic

It's probably sad for the people who are connected, but it's not really all that tragic. Some people died doing something extremely risky.

I used to whisper "SLIDERS!" as loud as I can to my husband several times a month, so I made him watch it to know what I was talking about.

I realized that child-me made up that part of the intro, since they definitely don't shout-whisper sliders.
I stopped whispering sliders at him.

The magazine has the same issue as the rest of kbin; a lack of content.

How many unique users out of the roughly 4000 have posted "articles" here, and why is that number so low?

-Is it because figuring out how to make a post is less intuitive than other sites?
-Is there something about the community that isn't friendly?
-Is the community that we have just generally averse to posting?

Andromeda holds a place in my heart that it probably doesn't really deserve. Definitely full of cheese, and the character of Dylan Hunt is awful.

I'll probably still always love it, mainly because it came out when I was a kid.

Most Scifi fans I have ran into can pretty quickly rank the four stars –BattleSTAR Galactica, STAR Trek, STARgate, and STAR wars, but what lesser-known or less-prestigious shows hold a special place in your heart?

No, Firefly doesn't count as lesser-known.

I like the intro to TruBlood more than the show itself.

That isn't taking into the next level of complications that I've seen in polycules; relationships of more than 2 persons within the group.

3 persons:
AB, AC, BC, ABC.

4 Persons:
AB, AC, AD, BC, BD, CD, ABC, ABD, ACD, BCD, ABCD

5 Persons:
AB, AC, AD, AE, BC, BD, BE, CD, CE, DE, ABC, ABD, ABE, ACD, ACE, ADE, BCD, BCE, CDE, ABCD. ABCE, ABDE, BCDE, ABCDE, I'm probably missing some.

Then there is the next level after that, relationships between groups within the group:

How does (AB) and (CD) interact?
What about (ABC) and (CD) vs (AB) and (CDE)?

Honestly, it seems like far too much effort/stress.

That's interesting! I assumed it was just going to be a hyper-local thing for that one commenter.

Popsicle never made a product like this, so the Kleenex/tissue, Band-Aid/bandage, Sharpie/permanent marker thing doesn't really apply here.

I wonder where it comes from.

I am assuming that this is a hyper-local thing to wherever you were raised.

Popsicle is a brand that's over 100 years old and makes frozen treats on sticks.
