Huh. Tivo cut off the last scene in GA between George and Callie. Even my Tivo doesn't give a shit.

I wish it was easier to tell when I'm judging things rationally. Like, if a buzzer went off or something, that would be helpful.
-t
On the one hand, I'd like a buzzer like that, for the knowing what was what.
On the other, hearing a buzzer at irregular intervals wouldn't really go a long way towards confirming my sanity.
Reason #6,973 why Fay is clearly the awesomest primary school teacher in the universe, from Bitches:
On a related, 'Gee, Fay is actually rather a witch', note, I have to say how very much I have enjoyed scooping up Daniel and his friend Naddy (who are, what, 4 years old?) twice now, after they hit people/were otherwise mean, and giving them forcible Time Out.
First time, it went down thus:
Me: Hi! (grabbing them both by the hand and holding on for grim death) Congratulations, you have Time Out. Do you know why you have Time Out?
Daniel: (wriggling to no avail)....?
Me: Why do you have Time Out, Daniel and Friend-of-Daniel? What's your name, incidentally?
Naddy: Naddy.
Me: Hi! Something tells me I'm going to be seeing more of you too, eh? So, why do you have Time Out today?
Daniel:.......we hit someone?
Me: (brutally cheerful) That's right! And we don't do things like that. It's not nice. So now you have to sit here with me, instead of playing.
Naddy: ....I want some water.
Me: Yes. Well, that's a pity, isn't it? Because I don't care.
Naddy: !!!!!!!.....but....I'm thirsty.
Me: Yes. See this? This is my not caring face.
Naddy: ....but...but I want to drink!
Me: Yes, I understand. But I don't care even a little bit. You were mean, and now you have Time Out, and I'm not going to let you drink. Don't worry, you'll survive.
Naddy....But...I'm thirsty!
Me: Yes. (Cheerful like Mary Poppins on a sugar high) Isn't is a pity you were punching other kids? 'Cause if you'd been playing nicely, you could just go and get yourself a drink any time you wanted! But now you're stuck here with me, watching other kids have fun and feeling all thirsty. There's a lesson there somewhere, boys.
Naddy: !!!!!!!!!!
Second time was much the same. And I thoroughly enjoyed it, I have to say - particularly the look of incredulity when the trump card of 'I'm Thirsty' failed all over again.
tommyrot: Doggie.

t Buffista PSA
WARNING:
DO NOT under any circumstance CLICK on tommyrot's link
t /PSA
BigDuluth: Wow... that is the best example of a dog requiring the BEWARE OF DOG sign I have ever seen.
EDIT: I'm with Burrell on this one...
tommyrot: Oh, it's just as God made it....
billytea: Yes, because God has started throwing in a free syringe with every manic chihuahua. And, apparently, starting co-sponsoring them with Satan.
BigDuluth: If by that you mean pale, sharp, stabby and pissed then yes, it is just as God made it.
billytea: Technically, that's how God made mantis shrimp.

iPods work in hell, but no matter what you load on them they only play 'Endless Love'
sumi - So, do all good firms of attorneys have a wetworks team?
Wolfram - Sure. We just call them the billing office.
In Literary, but touching on movies and TV:
Corwood Industries: Like Edward G. Robinson playing Charlie Brown's teacher.
DavidS: "MWOMP WOMP WOMP, See?"
Nutty: This is the tiniest Venn diagram of humor in the world.
Big Duluth in Movies:
I just read the IMDB plot synopsis of I Am Legend (Will Smith). I finished reading that story not two week ago. He may Be Legend but I Am Disappointed.
Hee. I almost COMM'd that myself.
It's nice when your friends know you so well. In Bitches:
Toddson: erika, I looked into the book and went "ew" looked at another section and thought "Ew" tried another and went "EWWWWW" ... and knew it was for you.
erikaj: Yeah, not denying the gross. I tend to skim any paragraph featuring maggots, for instance.
Toddson: ah ... so you're skimming a lot.
