Living in a box

Television Tropes Wiki [MeFi ;)].

RedemptionInTheRain:
A standard shot, usually done from above via a crane, that shows the character being gloriously and joyously rained on, obviously symbolic of a baptism and a new life/rebirth... these days you can almost count on some character going through a life-changing event if it's overcast and a low pressure system is moving in.

Behavourist Dr Skinner famously built a "baby box" for his infant daughter: now she speaks out. [:o] Looks pretty useful, especially the soundproofing,

OK, that tropes link is brilliant by gazbo

And the only reason I will let you off for the Google link which, unless I'm missing something, shows Google have made a very minor tweak to their site. Very minor.

But that tropes link really is very good.

You're in with the in-crowd! Part of the elite! If it goes live, you'll be able to casually say to all your friends "yeah, I saw that in the preview".

OK, so it just appealed to me.

They are fans of his, but at least the nature of the page means that every mention of him and his shows is utterly irreverent.

: Joss Whedon by Dr H0ffm4n (6.00 / 1) #12 Fri Mar 12, 2004 at 12:19:17 AM EST

Makes good shows for pre-teens. My midgets love Buffy and Angel. When they grow up, I'm sure they'll become avid Sapphire and Steel fans.

The poor girl by MisterQueue (5.00 / 1) #3 Thu Mar 11, 2004 at 10:08:13 PM EST

she's been made so crazy by her dad's mad scientist experiments that she's ready and willing to defend him at any cost. Nay, she claims she "loves him dearly"! Only a madwoman could love such an evil psychoanalitical puppeteer! The poor thing is clearly more than a bit touched.

Well by R Mutt (5.00 / 1) #4 Thu Mar 11, 2004 at 10:17:22 PM EST

I'm not a breeder, but rugrats do seem to get tangled up in their bedclothes while asleep. A warm box seems like a pretty handy alternative to me.

You may have something there by MisterQueue (3.00 / 0) #8 Thu Mar 11, 2004 at 11:09:16 PM EST

after all, aren't we all looking for a warm box to climb up into?

Point. Set. Match. I think

Way ahead of you by Dr H0ffm4n (3.00 / 0) #10 Fri Mar 12, 2004 at 12:12:12 AM EST

I already keep my midgets in cardboard boxes when I'm bored of them. Which is most of the time. I'm not unkind though, the boxes do have little slots for air and to post pizza slices through.

Well that begs the question... by MisterQueue (3.00 / 0) #13 Fri Mar 12, 2004 at 01:22:56 AM EST

Just how warm is a cardboard box?
