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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Okay, I can see the water, but dude, no way am I eating raw duck after only 12 hours.

Maybe he just happened to have some really good duck sauce with him. (Duck sauce that doesn't taste very good by itself, that is....)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Skipping the VM whitefont until I can see the much maligned episode for myself.

I loved it and thought it was fucking awesome as usual, -t. Just for the record. And most of the people on TWoP agree, which is unusual for TWoP but usual for this show.

Duck sushi?

No, still not appealing.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"My mother told me to pick the very best one and you are not IT" (with or without the "not" depending on how drawn out a process you were going for)

Yep. Although, let's be honest, the "not" was as contingent on who you really wanted to pick as on the length of the rhyme.

I have to start celebrating National Pie Day.

My only concern is that they aren't being ambitious enough. It should be international pie day at the very least. Maybe intergalactic.

Did anyone finish off counting rhymes with "My mother told me to pick the very best one and you are not IT"

Yes.

We also learned the racist "eanie-meanie-minee-moe" thing. Which was kind of weird, as there were no blacks at all where I grew up.

Re: TAR:

well, blah. I found myself kind of hoping that Kris and Jon would be eliminated because then I would have no reason to watch the show. I find it to be quite joyless, and the uber leg over the holidays depressed me, because Gus and Hera ran an excellent leg which got completely wiped out with the artificial bunching. Plus the unpleasant personalities and the FF-ness and the J&V, which are so beyond "unpleasant personalities" that I am starting to wonder why I willingly allow them on my television sets.

And, re: the non-elim. I was kind of meh about it. On one hand, I hate Hayden. But I like Aaron and I kind of think he will give her come-uppance. Also, the fact that the non-elim came in when J&V weren't recipients makes me happy. I would melt into a puddle of rage if JV got the benefit of a non-elim round. IJS.

Very true.

We mostly did potatoes, though some tigers. Definitely not the other thing.

I will keep an open mind, P-C.

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

Perhaps not weird at all, then.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Thanks P-C and ita!

Hmm. I've got the TWoP recapper saying "OMG best ep EVAH", and the vast majority of Buffistas going "Meh". I'll patienly retrain the TiFaux, but won't cry over missing the ep.

ETA: I shouldn't have skimmed the Wrongda article on E!ONline this week. I haven't in months, but now, in knowing what happened on VM, I am inadvertantly Lost spoiled.
