Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

My dorks are usually qualified with not-blond, not-pale. It's a thing. Been a few exceptions that mystify me. OK, actor wise a few. Actual people I interact with, well, that's more explainable. Probably growing up where I did, where the definition of attractive leaned towards darker hair and not-my-pale-freckled-skin. God I wanted olive skin and black hair forEVER.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Oh, P-C, that was definitely the best India story. These were my favorite parts:

This was symbolism: marriage is silly.
Hello!" I said to Mehulbhai in Gujarati. "What's your name?" "Shut up," he replied in English.

It just sounds so awesome.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

TAR: HELL FUCKING YEAH. (I was spoiled, since DH is interviewing them tomorrow. But when it happened, we still both high-fived each other and shouted "YAAY, POOCHIE'S DEAD!") And I loved how Phil was trying valiantly to keep the giant grin off his face.

Next to go needs to be Freddy and Kendra. And then Adam and Rebecca. I've got nothing against Rebecca, but Adam makes my teeth hurt. I think Lori and Bolo must be more tired than anyone else at this point, just because their bodies require so many more calories to keep going.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I have trouble telling the Wilson brothers apart, but wouldn't kick either of them out of bed for eating crackers.

As for TAR: woo-hoo! Our long national nightmare is ov- oh wait, Bush is still in office. At least it's a little bit better, anyway. Now we can just concentrate our hatred on Kendra.

Exactly, Theo. What was it? 'They choose it this way' re: poverty. Um, yeah sugar.

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

These were my favorite parts:

Hee hee! Glad you liked it.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You know, this Law and Order would be a lot more compelling if it weren't for the fact that the girl is so obviously a boy in drag.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think my basic "type" is changing. Whereas I once went for the stocky blond nordic types, I've been increasingly finding leaner brunettes like Matthew Fox, Owen Wilson, and Leonardo Sbaraglia attractive lately. Which is probably handy in real life, but is seriously crimping the eye candy appeal of L.A. centric dating shows and soap operas.
