Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

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.

Really, should have been the first place I looked

If people looked in the obvious place, I'd be out of a job.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Two slices of regular grocery store bacon is like 70 calories, IIRC.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Vino is denying the blood-doping:

"Alexandre denies having manipulated his blood," Astana manager Marc Biver said, adding that Vinokourov believes the "blood anomalies in his body" may have resulted from the crash.

Um.

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

Holy butt! I can have some cheese in my eggs, too!

Nice!

Dude, he scraped his knees, not a field transfusion!

sarameg, What has Moldova ever done to you?

Hey, smonster lived there for two years in the peace corps! Let's not hate on Moldova! Though I hear from her that we CAN hate on the FOOD there...

Well, he had something like 60 stiches in his knees and elbows. But yeah, it's not like they had to yell for two units of O-neg.

That's funny. My friend from Moldova HATED the food here for the longest time, especially the produce, which I definitely believe. But she also never ate a sandwich for like a full year.

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

Standard "stop taking pictures of the poor children!" aside: Zahara and Pax cuteness.

I need to just make peace with the fact that if no one looks stressed I'm a sucker for the cute kid pics.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

But she also never ate a sandwich for like a full year.

Maybe this is the person paperdol should be consulting about crash diets.
