It wasn't done in the show. It was done on Television Without Pity, and random web forums, and in polls across Livejournal, and even hinted at by Entertainment Weekly.

Generally, I've been quite satisfied with the show's treatment of it, actually.

Not!Emily Roommate just asked me how to turn the oven on. I thought that would amuse at least Cindy.

Oh, gotcha. Lousy internets.

I do think that for Rory, her behavior this year could be called slutty, given that she was such a prissy little bookworm in high school. (And thank goodness too, because the Perfect Rory Sue Who Everyone Thinks Is Special thing was getting old.)

Dude. I was a prissy little bookworm in high school. I started having some sex in college, and thoroughly enjoyed it. That's not sluttiness, it's growing up. But, again, it's probably just a random word-pinging in my head that makes me differentiate.

I don't think Rory's any better now than in high school. Maybe even more insufferable. If she weren't so incredibly beautiful, I'd sure be annoyed by her. She kind of reminds me of one of my exes, actually. Paris is much more entertaining, and is completely the reason I'm still watching.

I know of him from his association with Dan Perkins (Tom Tomorrow) at This Modern World, where Bob originally posted his round-the-world travelogue.

I met Dan Perkins a few times. He was dating a friend of mine when Tom Tomorrow was just getting started.

Chocolate pr0n...See's...must have chocolate. You know, I buy so much of the damn stuff, when I go to their website it jumps right in and asks me if I want to buy the same custom mix I ordered last time.

And, Mal! Cutie-patootie in a papa-san!

{{vw}} I'm sorry the detective didn't have any news. Let's hope someone hears something soon.

{{Nora}} I'd be nice to you, pinky swear!

::taps toe::

We're waiting, brenda. So spill about the new tattoo already.

Deena, that's good news about Aidan.

Calli, very good news about your mother. Knowing the cancer is all in one spot makes it much easier to treat.

Never watched GG, so this is purely tangential, but in certain online romance reader circles the kind of hero who sleeps with everything that moves but we're somehow supposed to believe reforms for the pure, virginal heroine is known as the Duke of Slut, and it's meant as an insult. I'm never going to write them and can rarely stand to read them.

Heh. No, the tatt was part of the dream. Trust me, when I get a new real one, you won't have to ask.

No, the tatt was part of the dream

::droops::

Dang.

Stay tuned this summer.
