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.

I missed the pseudorca discussion, but have I mentioned that I got X-Men (tm) checks? There's even one with Magneto on it. I foresee a lot of unnecessary check-writing in my future....

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

mmmm...danish....

I need coffee.

"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

Mike the Headless Chicken survived a beheading in 1945 in Fruita, Colo. Afterward, Mike could go through the motions of pecking for food, and when he tried to crow, a gurgle came out. His owner put feed and water directly into Mike's gullet with an eyedropper.

Scientists examined the chicken and theorized Mike had enough of a brain stem left to live headless. He was a popular attraction until he choked to death on a corn kernel.

I think this creeps me out more than anything I've ever read about an animal before.

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

Yeah. What idiot would try to fead a headless chicken a corn kernel?

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

The OC this season has been...variable. I'm loving Julie Cooper, everyone else is annoying me. Summer's making no sense, neither is Ryan, and Seth's not cute anymore. Marissa remains Marissa, but she's looking better this season in comparison with the other three. Bleah.

Up with the sun

I loved drunk power-ballad singing Julie Cooper last night.

Everything else? Eh. Want Trey and Zach to go away now.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Heh. "For Whitesnake!"

I love Zach, but my god, he has the worst hair EVAR. Though most of the rest of the cast are runners-up for worst hair. Marissa's is fine, and Sandy's is fine but is approaching needing a trim. But Ryan's is too short, Kirsten's needs to be brushed, and Summer's is just weird.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I foresee a lot of unnecessary check-writing in my future....

Feel free to send me as many unnecessary checks as you'd like.

This is all true. I haven't bothered to watch the last one yet and I've had it a week. It's hit that Dawson's point where you realise that without vampires or detection there's only so much you can do with 4 attractive teenagers (well, only so much you can show on network TV, anyway).

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

Spmepne please kick my ass. But not ita, I need her in top form, she needs to rest. I may stop by her house with a masseuse later.

I need to get in gear, get in the shower, pack. I need to find a box. I need to fill my tank with gas and get on the road. Gah.
