Joy does crack me up, but yeah...small doses people. She and Crab-Man over there, in the back. "My Name is Earl, not Joy."
Still. "Oh snap! Hey, stupid, give me the jacket."
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

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

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

I'm prepared to bet money that I've figured out one subplot already, but I'm not sure the show will last long enough to find out if I'm right.
Feel like whitefonting it? I was pretty underwhelmed, yeah. I do like me my Skeet, though. Eh, we'll see.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Peace to you and your family, Mikey. I'm so sorry the doctors couldn't do more for your uncle, but it's a good thing for him to spend his last days at home surrounded by people and things he knows and loves, not in a hospital bed being poked and prodded.

Feel like whitefonting it?I'm actually recapping it, so let me get that finished and then I'll 'splain. I don't want to scoop myself!
But it's about who Hawkins is.

Figured there was something going on there, but not much else of interest, really. Can't wait for the recap.

I'm watching Jericho. Was this supposed to be good?
I watched about 20 minutes of it. That has to be the most depressing TV series ever.

HEY. I am the world's most awkward hugger. Never feel like I'm getting it right. Big bubble and all that.
I briefly turned on the tv and tried to watch Jericho. I don't think I can. It immediately brought back all these memories of nuclear annihilation shows on tv (one of the most horrifying being an Amazing Stories or Twilight Zone with a watch that could stop time) and with that, a visceral cringe. For whatever the reason, be it my location or my very politically aware/activist upbringing, I really honestly half expected to be nuked in the eighties. I could quote Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. I had nightmares about it. I had plans in case it happened. When, in my late teens, after a lot of that had faded from the front of my mind, my parents looked at a house with an honest to goodness bomb shelter, it actually made me feel safe, though I hadn't felt unsafe in that was in a while.
It's strange, because I don't think everyone my age will have the same reaction. And strange because it is a period in time that, well like every era does to people, sets me apart. Hell, I've been to the USSR. My younger cousins all find that a strange moment in history. It was real to me. MAD was real.
In any case, I'm probably not Jericho's demographic. If I manage to watch, it'll be in the spirit of horrifying myself.

I was meh on Jericho. Liked Smith, though.
