Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Compassionately intolerant

Oh man. House is now dead to me.

I confess I didn't see this ep, but I'm so incredibly sick of that trope. If anyone with that experience has a pass to become a misanthrope or an ax murderer, etc. etc... then where do I sign up for my excuse slip? Sheesh.

t /massive personal issue

Which means I need to go to bed.

'Night all' to the night owls.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yeah, House blew chunks. It was cheap.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Enough so that I should skip watching it?

Always Anti-fascist!

Is this where I talk about the cop from The Wire that shot a mouse with his service revolver "to serve as a warning for the others."

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

there's no way to know if Oz or Max, specially Oz, would have attacked, and then I have a dog with a snakebite which I have to take to the vet.

My grandfather had a dog (golden retreiver )that went after all the cooperheads / water moccisins , etc. that were down in SC. And yes, bitten. Turns out that dogs are almost nonreactive to snake venom. golden retreiver . I would ,of course, double check, esp with a smaller dog. But snake enemy=dog.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I would take a chance with me, but never with one of my fuzzies. In addition to getting bitten with venom, then you have infection, whether it bit something important, etc. And cats and dogs can be assholes instead of "Ooooh, snake! Run!" Oz is an asshole about dustbunnies, dogs on tv, and random shadows. Snakes scare me for him.

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

I finally went to Voce.com to see what this premium phone service dealio was all about. Seems pretty much to be the Amex of wireless carriers. I like the idea that they give you three chargers and a wireless headset with each phone, and that you can switch phones every 12 months. The bits where your Voce assistant translates Greek for you or finds you something to do for your big anniversary...I wonder if I'll ever be rich enough to think of engaging strangers for those tasks.

Man, I took an Ambien and engaged in half an hour of pretty lucid conversation and...not out yet. Probably just about at the point I should stop recording in text, but not yet ready to sleep.

Sounds tailormade for browsing the trailers at apple.com
