Natter 52: Playing with a full deck?
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.
I'd be interested in the number, lisa, but you're in Baltimore, correct? I wouldn't like to subject Teddy to such a long drive.
Fred, I am in Baltimore. It can't hurt to give them a call and see if the vet will at least be able to talk to you (I wouldn't want to subject the cat to a long drive either). It's 410-367-8111.
Aww, sorry Fred. I'm no help, I"m afraid.
Tom! Eep! Lasers! In your EYE! Hope it helped, cause it sounds freaky.
eah, I don't know -- she's pretty much a bad-ass dyke. But pretty!
Yeahhhh...she's kinda hot. Except in how she's CRAZY. And a BITCH. OMG. I've seen like, two episodes of the show ever, and wanted to kill her. And it was two episodes that had nothing to do with her business--one she went on a date (only she was still sorta dating her girlfriend?? and told the date girl??) and one she went home to her family. Crazy.
only she was still sorta dating her girlfriend??
Okay, but seriously, her girlfriend was fucking insane. Assuming it's the first-season girlfriend.
Bah. I'm seeing hundreds of little tiny dots floating in front of my left eye. But on the positive side, I only see them when I'm looking at something bright. Like, say, a computer monitor.
I'm assuming they'll eventually go away.
Oh well - I can still more or less read the monitor. Worse case scenario I have to wear the eye patch again. (Arrr!)
Yeah, but it was the way she presented herself on this date, where she basically SAID "Yeah, so I'm out with you, because I've got this crazy girlfriend and I want to see what's out there". And was just so condescending. I wanted to smack her.
BUt she is kinda hot.
Was she going out with TAR Rebecca?
Was she going out with TAR Rebecca?
In the second season, sort of. I didn't see most of it, since my relationship with reality TV generally goes from "I can't stop watching it!" to "Oh, my god, why am I watching this?"
In the first season, though, she was dating this South American girl who liked to bite her when she got pissed. Like, grab arm and leave marks.

Response bias! Oh, this is interesting.
Response bias! Oh, this is interesting.
Yeah. I thought it was also kind of relevant to some of the fanarchive discussions about a potential rating system.
