We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Brian needed to go a few eps ago. I'm tired of him.

Definitely. I think Bourdain said it best: "Brian, though, is leaking blood in the water. He can no longer run. Nor can he hide... Your seat cushion may no longer be used as a flotation device."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Zatar is nummy - you can also just sprinkle it on flatbread brushed with a little olive oil. Mmmmmmmm.

I've never heard the term "haring dish" before, but I think it's that little oven-safe serving dish she's got the cauliflower in in the picture.

Yeah, I mean it's not like it's spoilery.

(I meant that in an "affect the outcome of the game" way, but now I'm picturing [imaginary] people being all "OH NOES! You spoiled me for the true depths of Dick's assholitude! I thought he was just a fuckhead, but I know it's much worse than that.")

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Tim Gunn: I love how they're mixing up the format of the show -- this woman got her self-esteem lesson (or whatever) from Benny Ninja! Hilarious.

Punishingly Intricate

I love how they're mixing up the format of the show -- this woman got her self-esteem lesson (or whatever) from Benny Ninja! Hilarious.

That was awesome! The show still seems awkward and stilted but I loved seeing her in the fancy dresses. I was Very Jealous!!!

And I am really feeling the need to thoroughly clean out my closet.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
