Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

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

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
Well, he didn't use lube. Is that really the message you want to be sending to children?

And you know, Tim pointed out to me that while his ep was available one night for 46 minutes after 8pm with a big ole' warning at the beginning and during commercial breaks, any kid with an internet connection can watch it on right on the handwringers' site 24/7, just by clicking the link.
Therefore, I find it hilarious that they'd think of asking the FCC to fine anyone, given that hypocracy.

I'm not sure you're allowed to use lube on network television.
(Unless it's that funky KY warming lotion. I think they've bought ad time.)

What is even happening?

Exactly, and honestly, as BtVS got more explicit (season 6, in particular) I could understand, in theory, some people complaing, particularly in the midwest, where it aired at 7:00pm, and since it was youth oriented. I wouldn't have complained. I'd just make sure my kids didn't watch, but I understand, because you just don't keep as close tabs on what your 12 year old is watching, as you would on your 5 year old. But The Inside is just so grown up. That's why I don't watch every episode. I'm only 38. I'm too little.

Great, now I'm picturing MUPPET PULP FICTION. So far it's just amusing but I think I'll need brain bleach at some point.

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

I think that would be the opposite of brain bleach, ita.

Hey, check my resume -- I'm so not the comforting type.

I'm trying to figure who gets the Ving Rhames character, and I'm leaning towards Sam the Eagle for some reason.
