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

Desperate Housewives. Damn. So much more unlikeableness. I see they're broaching bisexuality, but still treating the word itself like profanity. I'd say it's a shame that it's with such a reprehensible character, but apart from Lynette, who's averaging out tolerably flawed, who on the show isn't? Credit where it's due, Susan didn't fall over anything tonight, although I could have lived without seeing her undies.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

My guide showed tonight's DH as a repeat so I skipped.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I'm starting to dig redheaded-lady's son. He has conflicts in places where most people don't even have places.

Susan's undies are always welcome on my tube. All entandres admitted.

I wish I had seen this now. Viva la recap and la reruns.

Though I am watching Margaret Cho's Notorious C.H.O. and it is making me laugh in ways that DespHswvs (just typing DH made the sentence read poorly, I needed to add more letters) rarely does.

Notorious C.H.O.

I'm glad it gave you a chuckle.

For me, it was a trifle too angry.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

DH: I have trouble reconciling my love for Bree and my pinko commie politics. Not that I'm rooting at all for the Omen child, mind you.

The reveal of the connection between the skeleton in Paul's box and Mike's old girlfriend is intriguing, I suppose, but I find myself not giving much of a damn though. I did get a kick out of seeing Donnie Pfaster again. Thank God he's evil. I can't handle the mental schism when I see the actor playing a good guy.

My God, there I was, thinking Susan was annoying, but her mother is three times worse. She needs to have her bony ass kicked. A LOT.

Wrod. Exactly my thought. Time to move on. That thread is played.

Donnie Pfaster is always a good guy. This is my assertion.

It was very angry in places. I don't always think that is a bad thing in humor. I don't want all of my humor that way but sometimes it is just brilliant.

I liked Margaret before she got her sitcom. After that ... she was too willing to sacrifice making sense for a snappy punchline. Like when she called Ann Coulter Cunta Kinte. I felt very outside of C.H.O., and didn't even finish the DVD.

Most def. Still, I kept feeling alienated throughout the thing. ...Defensive-like.

Maybe she was jabbing me where I live, or something, but the net effect -- for me -- was that she finds the mens massively flawed.

Which we are! Like most humans.
