Hil, as a joke?
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I'm going to go with "irony."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Because the bottom fell out of the Rebbe Schneerson Collectable Trading Card market when he didn't turn out to be the messiah?
edit: or, yeah, as a joke.

It's like hipsters buying those Catholic saints' candles. (Except, you know, made on purpose for that market. Fish's Eddy is not exactly the Jewish Religious Supply Store.) What are they called?

Sumi, I like your ideas. And I do think Irina is dead. But I don't think by Jack's will. He's wiley. I suspect he had a plan to do a bait and switch of some kind, but she got killed anyway. At least, that's how I'd wank it. 'Cause I've got a soft spot for the SpyDaddy. Hee.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
See, I could see people buying Schneerson stuff as a joke. Or, if the cups said something vaguely amusing about the rabbis. But it looks like it's just the pictures and names, and it's a rather odd collection of rabbis, too.

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
Also, donate blood.
After 9/11, the Red Cross was encouraging people to donate. They tossed thousands of gallons of blood. It went bad. They didn't need it. They just used the tragedy as a way to pump up the donor lists.
And as far as I know havent released all the funds they received for 9/11.
I'm just really bitter about the Red Cross for a wide variety of reasons.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I think I'm missing lots of backstory on Alias. Still, it's entertaining. I love that the opening credits didn't happen until 20 minutes in.

If I only had a brain...
This is why I gave money to Medecins Sans Frontieres, who do not mess with people's heads, and who go to tragedies that aren't fashionable.
