Huh. The Chicago White Sox are going to the World Series.
Bastards.
Also, people are honking horns and setting off firecrackers. This is the North side, people!
Joyce: Dawn, you be good. Xander: We will. Just gonna play with some matches, run with scissors, take candy from some guy, I don't know his name.

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

Silence means security silence means approval
The White Sox have won the AL pennant.
There's going to be a World Series in Chicago for the first time since 1959.

Why would that be mean, Gus? They acknowledge that it's a prime time soap.
In fact, that's what I like about it!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The last couple of GA's have left me thinking "Another prime-time soap."
The last couple? Didn't you watch any of the ones before?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

OK. Cool, even. I just got the impression somehow from the first season it was going some place specific. Now, not so much.

Not so much a meany. I watched GA once. Didn't do anything for me. Oh well.
Timely person that I am, today I watched VM 1.1 - 1.4 straight through. I kinda like it. I may watch a few more episodes through the week and somewhere around Thanksgiving I'll be up to speed.
Did bunches of decorating today. We always get many kids for treats and the neighbors do a several block party thing. A number of houses will not only have candy, but adult type treats and refills of glasses for the adults. I'm starting to think my neighbors might be party animals.
Seriously, this time of year it just starts being ok to be outside at night and people get all happy. (Right now at midnight it is 77 and we sat out to enjoy the full moon and cool temp, whee!)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
GA is totally a soap, and is doing it really really well.
That's crazy about the White Sox.

Hubby's likes medical shows, so we're trying GA. We find it painful, and are hoping it stops being a soap opera. Any chances of that, or are we supposed to care that these folks keep having emotional meltdowns over patients?

Woo Hoo White Sox!

It's a soap opera on purpose, connie. I doubt it'll change. Of course, The OC used to be funny, so there's always a chance.
