Some people are pedantic at the strangest times.
Yeah, I was just thinking that.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Normally, yes. But who is to say that the picture wasn't taken in a zoo??? Huh??

Blue was my favorite flavor when I was Emmett's age, too
Me, too. I remember some ice cream called "blue moon" which I think was really just vanilla ice cream with food coloring. But I begged for it. Of course, the whole sticking-your-blue-ice-cream-coated-tongue-out-at-your-sister aspect figured heavily in my food choices back then.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's a show ... about vampires!

Up with the sun
So I have this usually-tasty boxed Indian meal for lunch. The problem is, for the first time ever, I am having it without a pita or rice, and finding that the undiluted spices are a little harsh. Not too spicy/hot, more that it's too many flavors and you need some bland for contrast.
I am trying to decide if it's worth getting crackers from the vendiing machien to try and remedy this.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
But... but... penguins and polar bears live on different ends of the planet!
That site explains that the penguins traveled there, hence the purse.

Re Rob "lying".... maybe I'm just being over-pedantic, but I didn't think he was lying per se (unless I missed something, which is possible).
He paid the guard not to tell the other teams about the express bus, and when the other teams caught him and confronted him about it, he lied to them, and then got indignant about being accused of lying.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think that's the reason I don't like him, Jessica. Not the lie, or even the denying the lie, but the getting pissy about being accused of it.
He's playing well, certainly, but I still think he's being an ass.

Not watching TAR, but that sounds a bit like flavors of Survivor tactics.

The getting pissy is definitely a Survivor tactic -- the more offended you act, the more it looks like you might actually be telling the truth, and the more people you can get to trust you.
It won't help him as much in TAR, I think.
