I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Bearing in mind you don't like hitting people and I quite enjoy it -- and I probably mind being hit less than you do, don't neglect to bear me in mind.

No no, you've got it all wrong. When sparring, I get my back up way too much and want to tackle the fucker who just swung at me and hit them until they are dead.

My sparring partner is Polgara. This leads to a moral quandry that disagrees with my belly. The last fight in which I got beaten happened when I was 12 and a very big, very fat 17 year old girl took a swing at me. I swung back and it landed well, but she beat me down.

Unfair fight. But aren't they all? Next fight was a very big, very fat 14 year old boy. I was 14, too. I lept on a desk, onto his back, and put him in a choke hold til he went down, all Goliath -like.

And then no one fucked with me, again. Except that homeless guy at the Quincy Adams t stop, but a good shove followed by fast running worked exceptionally well. He wasn't there to see me go nuts on that boy. Who later went to prison for shooting someone, I think.

None of your spoilers makes any sort of sense with the episode's name. This makes me very confused. Or will make me very confused when I get to watch it.

And I will watch "Objects in Space" before leaving, otherwise my friend T will keep me hostage and never let me go. I wouldn't want that.

Commentaries, however, I'm way behind on, and still haven't watched a single one.

I most want to see Nilly's face when she meets Tim.

You're not the only one. I have friends here who are already willing to make fun of me for my responses, even from an ocean away.

Must pick up several disposable cameras.

The fact that I am a complete and total silly girl is proven by me sending this post for T to see and rejoice at the potential of mocking me long and hard.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When sparring, I get my back up way too much and want to tackle the fucker who just swung at me and hit them until they are dead.

But that doesn't sound like fun ... or at least it's a one time sort of fun.

Equanimity -- perhaps that's the word I needed.

Will you look at the time? Off to a krav bridal shower.

Off to a krav bridal shower.

Does this mean you get to take a swing at the bride every time she opens a gift? Sounds like fun.

All is well that ends in pizza.

And I will watch "Objects in Space" before leaving, otherwise my friend T will keep me hostage and never let me go. I wouldn't want that.

You then have time to think of what you want to say in your review while on the plane. That should keep you from the boredom of long plane travel ...well, some of it.

I think the swinging should be reserved for whoever thought a spice rack would be a great creative gift.

Hey! I need a spice rack! That'll go on my, "I'm 31, I'm likely to never marry, so buy my gifts" registry.

In honor of the Orange Alert, I'm making baked pasta. Then I'll take the car to get washed and duct tape all the vents.

Hey. New board.

Allyson, you want an iced tea maker? Those are always my favorite gifts to give at un-wedding parties.

I could use a lemon squeezer for to make yummy lemonade. Love lemonade. Lemonade hates me.

I have a Williams-Sonoma gift certificate that should be good for one.

Thinking about Nilly's Out of Gas review makes me want to watch it, but woe, I've lent it out.

Hey. New board.

Thinking about lemonade wants me to drink it, but woe, I'm a lazy sumbitch.
