Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

House: What, y'all have never been cranky?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Thanks, Housies.

Is it just me, or does chick commentator really really really like saying "twizzle"?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

House and GA: There is cranky. And then there is cruel and unthinking. Which, granted, is something of a farce when speaking of House. But really--between Meredith being selfish and foolish with George, and House being thoughtlessly mean (which is very different from his deliberate mean, and that is where I'm drawing the line) I'm finding it hard to have sympathy for these folks that take out their frustration on other people with stunning cruelty, intentional or no.

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

I don't know from House, but I find it perfectly plausible that Meredith thinks she should choose the good guy, steer away from the married man, and maybe this is what she must do. We'll see next week, but I think there are in-character and non-horrible (though self-deluding and probably damaging in the long run) explanations for her behaviour.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy Birthday, Jon!

Another night in Natter, another show whitefont that I have to leave in another window so I don't read it until we get to the right timezone...

That Italian ice dance couple is cracking my shit up.

(Not spoilery - they haven't skated yet. Not on the teevee, anyway.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That Italian ice dance couple

I admit, the first image I got when I read this was a man and a woman dressed as Italian ice, doing a merry little jig.
