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

It's related because if he had the balls to tell them to cut it out he'd have never asked her about the hand washing. Instead he (to some degree) bought into the "ewwww, Callie is groooossss" thing.

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

So you think that him defending her without believing her is unlikely or too out of character? Honestly, I think him not defending her yet believing her would be in character, although that's not what happened. He's just not the stick-uppiest sort of guy, especially with those two.

I think that Callie assumed (correctly) that George didn't defend her because he asked her if she washed her hands. I mean, it was possible that he did, but not likely.

I am loving this Nathan fellow.

I'm feeling kinda weird about not seeing the link between those two events, but I'm letting it go.

"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

GA: I so cannot get into George's mindset and figure out how he's going to react in a given set of circumstances, aside from the fact that it will be whatever the wussiest option is. Pity that my fictional alter ego wasn't in on the situation as I can hear her voice saying, "What, you could whiz in front of them but were too embarrassed to ask for space at the sink? God help you if you ever run out of paper and need someone to hand you a roll!" as if she were right beside me.

What's the name of that webcomic that had the indie music references and the guy that falls for the girl and she can't be with him because she's still traumatised about her father's suicide and then the chick at the coffee store asks him out?

I losted it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Thank you! The title is so not linked to the subject matter, in my head.
