sara, no one in the cast was maimed, but the episode ended with Meredith with her hand INSIDE this guy's chest cavity, stabilizing an UNEXPLODED BOMB. And Bailey's husband in surgery in the next room with a brain injury. And Bailey in labor. Basically.
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was a really quotable episode too. If I were in the market for a tagline, I'd have several to choose from.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
an orgy of sock-puppet boosterism
Let us take a moment and enjoy this phrase.
Although I agree there's an ick factor in the "company pays me to play so that I'll plug their product" concept, it's just a development of the "stranger in Times Square asks you to take his picture with Cool New Camera Phone" concept. Advertising that you don't know is advertising till you think about it (or till somebody blurts a telltale).
What I'm busy thinking about is, dude, 50+ identities, 5 posts/hour? If it's a 40-hour work-week, that's only 200 posts a week, which is not enough to sustain 50 identities worth a damn. If it's more than 40 hrs/week, then sign me up for some of that overtime.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The posts had to be well thought out, and the idea was that I was to establish multiple identities with a history on the forums, so that when the timing was right a well written but subtly placed marketing post could be finessed in. And regular visitors would recognize the post as coming from a long time poster.
Wow, that's chutzpah.
ION, I've been playing a lot of games on my new system with its ATI Radeon X357 Magnum video card, and really, the image quality is fabulous. Really, if you're in the market for a video card, that's the one you ought to get.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What would happen if two competitors tried the same strategy?

Okay, I don't watch GA at all, but what I want to know is how did an unexploded bomb get inside somebody's chest cavity ???
