Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It would have to be something with Dwight then.

EXACTLY! I know that there must be a perfect two-minute-ish clip they could use but I don't know how to go about finding it...

lisa, did you see last week's episode?

oh yes. It totally broke my heart. I wanted to rewatch for the funny but couldn't because Pam was just. so. sad.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Stupid rain. They cancelled the Red Sox game today, and I was really looking forward to it.

There are bound to be videos of it on YouTube, lisa. The first few minutes with Roy attacking Jim, and Dwight coming to the rescue with pepper spray are probably out there. A lot of times, people post the entire episode (in pieces) and they stay up until they get caught. I'd just search for "The Office The Negotiation" and see what you get.

There were other scenes with Dwight and all his weapons, too.

It broke my heart too, by the way. I started to recap it in my LJ, but it's really hard (for me, anyhow) to be entertaining when writing about a comedy. But I was totally calling Jim * Halpermort, because he hurt my BFF's feelings.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Maybe I'm just being overly cranky, but that article rubs me the wrong way. (Not just cause it kept crashing Safari). Dude. It was morning rush hour. Try me around noon on a weekend.

Daisy Jane, I reacted the same way. I can't quite imagine telling my boss, "Oh, sorry I'm late, but there was this virtuoso with a Strad busking in the station....no, really! I'm not making it up!"

The article just seemed slightly snotty and classist, like it was exposing the hoi polloi in all their music ignorance. It seemed to be implying a connection that just wasn't there. Sometimes you have to hurry to make it to work to keep the job that brings in money to keep you fed and in a home, and if that means you zip past some seriously amazing music, then you do. It doesn't necessarily mean you're a philistine who just doesn't appreciate good music.

There's also an ep where Jim is guessing Dwight's passwords. But I can't remember which it is.

I started to recap it in my LJ, but it's really hard (for me, anyhow) to be entertaining when writing about a comedy.

It would be entertaining for me!!!

I was so sad for Pam but I couldn't really be mad at Jim. I so understand that need to defend your heart.

That's part of why I'd love to see this repeated at other stop or in other cities, or hell, just on different days. The documentary Touch the Sound, about nearly deaf percussionist Evelyn Glennie, features one segment with her cracking out an extended snare solo in a train or subway station that draws quite a crowd. Sure, the circumstances are completely different, but it's an example of how changing any (or in this case all) of the variables will produce a different result.

I think a data pool of essentially one datum is too small.
