Why did it take so long?
Severe fuel shortages. Vast deficits left from the war effort. Very bad weather in the late 1940s.
River: The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems. Mal: See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with, long as she does it quiet-like.

Cool. Thanks, Ginger!
My goodness, I've been conditioned, haven't I -- I keep expecting something horrible to happen. Anne Bancroft takes a friends' dog for a walk in Central Park and lets it off the leash for a walk, and I expect it to disappear or get eaten or run into the street or something. It doesn't, of course -- it's not that kind of movie.

Holy crap! Root canals and caps for four teeth cost $2500! In the early 1950s? That's... crazy!
Er, maybe late 50s. Oops.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Much becomes clear about the state of British dentistry.

Nono, this was New York! It's why she couldn't afford to go to England for Elizabeth's coronation. $2500! Crazy!

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

tommyrot, I think you want this link (yours didn't go to the intro). That is... wow. I particularly like God as Monster Truck Announcer.

Speaking of hot... I bought a range, including a convection oven, which is probably far more stove than I need. Yet now I feel all home-ownerly and all that.
