'Out Of Gas'
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.
Can someone explain to me why whenever I order the seasoned fries they're not only curly but fried very crisp? My poor mouth is shredded (the soft oatmeal cookie hurt, dammit). I'd be traumatised anyway, because the waitress that seated me had on a huge silver (I hope it wasn't white gold or platinum) $ pendant and was working it bling-style. In Simi. A middle aged Simi waitress. Bling.
I think shredding my mouth was desirable in this one instance, to distract me from bling. Simi. Bling.
Jessica, we only saw the second ep, but did really like it. Funny, snarky, not particularly schmaltzy. Sandra Oh is awesome.
Break up the Reds!

I'm really enjoying Crazy!Gay!Black dude. A *lot.* He's got weird eyes.
Loving. Him. He kind of reminds me of Geoffrey Holder, just not as creepy.
Hec, belated thanks for the update. It sounds like this has been an adventure, but at least it's almost over. I think the black velvet sounds peachy.
I just checked his IMDB profile, and had a recurring role on Felicity! Not that I ever watched the show, I just feel like I respect him a tiny bit less because of it. But, a man's gotta work, I suppose.
no, no, the episode wasn't lame, there was just a particular moment/exposition that was lame. But, I think that it was maybe supposed to be lame.
That's good to know, since I only watched up to the lame part then thought, "that was lame" and stopped watching. I guess I should watch the rest.
Perkins, definitely watch the rest. v. entertaining. although, I kind of have one issue they have very deliberately set up the "Rayanne" character as being very stiff and by the book, kind of socially awkward, etc. I had a hard time believing that that character would have been able to pull off the mother with three kids thing. But, maybe that's me. I hate it when shows disregard backstory/characterization to make a situation or joke work.
It now looks like a city street.
Like insecure teenagers, malls keep changing their style. They are ripping away their roofs and drywalled corridors; adding open-air plazas, sidewalks, and street-side parking; and rechristening themselves "lifestyle centers." This new look may remind you of something: a vibrant urban street. Yet, while these new malls may appear to be public space, they're not public at all—at least if you want to do anything but shop. They represent a bait-and-switch routine on the part of developers, one that exchanges the public realm for the commercial one.
