Apropos of nothing except my own Tv viewing habits, this week's Rescue Me is fun. Bizarro Tommy with faith and everyone happy! More than a little surreal.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Thanks for mentioning that -t. I've been meaning to say how I thought that Shiny Happy Denis Leary was simultaneously one of the funniest and creepiest things I've ever seen.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good lord. I am freezing and bored and I thought I'd do some filing (that's when you know it's bad), but I can't get into the office with the file cabinets. BAH.

Oh, I was sure that that was the something horrible that happens when you're happy, even if it's chemically induced, and he'd be in a coma. That show keeps surprising me.

Oh, I was sure that that was the
Yes, and instead it validated how he was feeling.
I also loved how Tommy just casually told his pal "Oh yeah, it was the goofballs." It's doubly funny because I can't hear "goofballs" with thinking of Chief Wiggum talking about Flanders on THE SIMPSONS.

However, the Jerk-O-Meter also could be set up to test the voice on the other end of the line. Then it could send the tester such reports as: "This person is acting like a jerk. Do you want to hang up?"
The telemarketers better plan to add a "Quick—hang up! This person is formulating a plan to kill you even as you speak!" option if they want to properly reflect the experience of waking me up on a Saturday with a phone service offer.
