Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The Irish pubs I've been to have fish and chips, but I thought of that as a generic UK food. Whereas Fisherman's Supper of reeking boiled unchoice cuts of lamb and onions on soda bread seemed to be uniquely Irish.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How would that help the snake?

Snack not snake. Though you could make a snake snack, I suspect.

Snake toes would be more of a philosophical conundrum than a tasty treat.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hmmmm. Would a corn chip called BabyToes be any less disturbing than HuFu?

Hmm. Among me and mine, Fritos have always been associated with foot stank. Different strokes.

Snack not snake. Though you could make a snake snack, I suspect.

You could even serve it on a plane.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hey look at that:

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito split with the court's conservatives in a death penalty case on his first full day on the court.

Handling his first case, Alito sided with five other justices Wednesday evening in refusing to allow Missouri to execute inmate Michael Taylor.

Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas supported lifting an execution stay issued by an appeals court, but Alito sided with the majority in turning down Missouri's last-minute request to allow a late night execution.

You could even serve it on a plane.

Oooh, that would be exciting. Not as exciting as going shoe shopping with Kat P., but pretty fun.

The other thing I'm told is amazing in Ireland are dairy products in general and butter on brown bread at breakfast time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Harp I think of as decidely Irish.

Harp. Stays sharp till the bottom of the glass.

It doesn't ping me as Irish, mostly because I've never been there and it was all over London. It didn't feel importy.
