Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

I don't get the HIMYM love, but I'm certainly not going back a second time to doublecheck.

OTOH, BSG!

My favorite Roomba anecdote.

I carry the Roomba into the bedroom and put it on the floor, but before I turn the power on, I stop and observe the cats, both sleeping, each stretched out peacefully in his own sunbeam, unaware of the horror that awaits.

OMG, VOLUME CONTROL!!!

Sorry. But if you need to belch at your desk, belch quietly. When you're talking, don't start out by yelling, and/or switch to inaudible with five words left to go. What is your problem?

Okay, I feel a little cleansed now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Who the fuck would think Calvin is a penitent Christian?

Let me say this about that: he is not.

I realize what it makes me afraid of is Christian Calvin fic.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I don't get the HIMYM love, but I'm certainly not going back a second time to doublecheck.

It's a Doogie thing.

That's the one! Between the cats being chased all over the apartment, and "The Love Song of J. Alfred Proomba," I don't think I've ever laughed more in my life.

There are all these other people! And only three sets! And everyone just SITS.

I mean, based on that one ep I saw. They may stroll in the others, but run? I doubt it sincerely.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

It's a Doogie thing.

Well, that and a Big Doofy Guy From Freaks & Geeks Playing AH's Fiancé thing. Hec and I keep forgetting to watch it, but on the very rare occasions that we have remembered the combined charmingness and goofusy adorability of Jason Segal and Aly Hannigan turns us into helpless glurbling puddles. It really ought to be cloying and irksome. It's utterly mysterious. It's a thing.
