Yeah, I was surprised more teams didn't pick that. Though I suppose if you didn't know the rabbits were leashed...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I think they'd just had bad animal experiences and would have sworn off. I would have picked the butter churning because I want to learn how to make butter! But I would have known going in what a physical task it was going to be.

Still, bunnies!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Can we talk about Pentatonix absolutely KILLIN' IT with their version of "Let's Get It On" on last night's The Sing-Off? [link]

Holy molly, they're good. At this point, it'd be a travesty if anyone other than Pentatonix brought this baby home.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

There are bunnies for sale on our local craigslist. The only thing stopping me from buying them is that they probably aren't trained to hop over fences. Well, that and Seabiscuit would think we'd bought him a snack.

Yeah, after seeing that performance, I just know that they have to win this. The Aires are great, Afro Blue is all jazzy goodness, and Urban Method is entertaining and innovative, but Pentatonix has it all, entertainment, innovation, incredible technique, and charisma in each of its members. They mentioned last night that the Aires have never been in the bottom two, but I don't think that Pentatonix has either. And it's really hard to remember that they only have five members, since they really do fill up the stage more than groups with twice that number.

Because books.

Aw, Work of Art made me sad. And I really detest mean girls.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no! So, I'm watching Tough Love on VH1 (don't judge me), and this woman Avonte is talking about how she had this "spiritual marriage" to some dude who was also married to someone else, but it was OK because of his religion.... and then someone made a reference to the guy being a celebrity, so I googled, and it's Shawn Stockman! WHAT.

Oh, and also: TAR.

Is Phil really going to let them get away with those train shenanigans?

With the lost tickets? I guess it's whatever you can get away with? (Like free cab rides and such.) I do love that the camera people see all.

And assuming the snowboarders are going to come in last, they are so lucky if they don't get eliminated. But I wonder, since Phil said it was the next leg, not just "keep racing." I don't know.
