"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I think, were Logan to live to be 30, he would have had 12 chances to vote (not counting primaries or special elections) and would have voted exactly 0 times. Civic participation -- probably not his bag.

Is it bad that Duncan the Young Republican is also the least knowable character? Like, Logan, you pretty much know about the vice. Weevil, quantifiable lawlessness. Duncan? When Aaron Echolls tried to act like Duncan might be the killer after all, I kinda sorta half-believed him, but wasn't sure. We're deliberately left out of the decision he made about Kendall in the same way -- he could be a shmuck or he could be a hero and we wouldn't be able to tell.

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

Aren't the Kanes Democrats? I seem to remember Jake and Celeste expressing some distate about having to invite the Governator to the party for S1 finale.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I get your point, but don't think this is a good example of it. Duncan has a disease which could have caused him to kill Lilly. He was definitely capable of it. Whether or not he had actually done it has no bearing on how good a person he is or how well we "know" him.

Our wings are not tired.

It was a lovely way of still leaving that option open. Although I hope they never decide to use the option.

I don't feel that I know Duncan very well at all. Then again, I'm not convinced tha Duncan knows himself very well either.

Maybe they're still mad at him for Jingle All the Way.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I think I remember Mrs. Kane asking, "Honey? When did we become Republicans?" rather sadly.

Still, even if the parents are Democrats, that doesn't necessarilly mean their son will follow in their footsteps. Duncan seems to kick against doing some of what they want him to do (running for student office, getting a summer internship, dumping Veronica).

Ain't that the truth. My poor mother suffers so over my brother's Republican ways despite her fine training and example.

I love how CC's character is so incredibly skanky, with like, no redeeming characteristics.

I can think of two.

Oh... her character.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Finally watched the episode.

This show is so fucking good. So SO fucking good.

It's odd -- last season, I was really irritated by Logan's prickishness; this season, I adore it. I am so fickle.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

This show is so fucking good. So SO fucking good.

Sometimes I am baffled by how good it is, honestly.
