Thanks, Jesse! Yo, Gus, The Wire is taking on the education system in Season Four. Man, I can't freakin' wait.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I've got no job, a political regime I don't support, and a dead dog. I need this show...

I quoted that because all it needed was a nipples reference to make it perfect.

A nipple short of perfection ... story of my life.

"No Child Left Behind" is gonna be weeping like a little bitch. Cool. Y'all read about the Baltimore slogan thing, right? That the Simonverse has affected people's view of Balmer so much, the mayor is tripping and hired a PR firm to come up with yet another slogan...although the people at H:LOTS made the "City That Reads" the "City that Bleeds" so... nsm. You think if I sent him something that said "I ruined my city's reputation and all I got was this lousy--- and a house in Fell's Point," he'd appreciate it? ETA: Perfect, Gus? That shit was pathetic. I did try to back myself up with, like, Netflix rental patterns and stuff, but still needy and pathetic. But sometimes Ronnie is needy and pathetic and I still like her.

No spoilers, just tiny thematic hints. Couldn't possibly be Wire spoilers...you'd have to tell the whole fucking story wouldn't you? And it would still be like "Remember the guy out front of the package store?"
"No,"

"Not him...the white guy."

Tell me I'm wrong.

Exhaustiveness is the ultimate foiler, dawg.

Man, I can't say anything without getting on somebody's shitlist.

The Wire is cool beyond any reasonable expectations.

What?! I'm not uptight about that! Tongue and cheek, totally. I'm just thinking the visual novel thing? Makes spoilers too lengthy and annoying to be likely. with the possible{Main Character dies!} excepted. But even if I did get mad, I'd have to suck it up because not that many people want to talk to me about my Baltimore crap anymore, so I should stay on your good side. We got it like that. ETA: Wrod, they are making me excited about watching TV about tax dollars, bunk. How cool is that? Very.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If only it actually looked fun.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I do not watch The Wire, but any excuse to give the US education system a good goose is fun.

Just to make Gus' day, I also have to say that my other other favorite Project Runway moment was listening to Tim Gunn get his bitch on with Nick at the fabric store over Nick's new model. He is so my favorite semi-celebrity reality TV guru.
