Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

I love that airport drama is back! I've missed it these past few seasons.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

You know, the "helpful" travel agent managed to screw Chester & Ephraim over twice (meaning well, of course) because not only did she lose them the first, best flight, but then she contacted them with the skeezy three-connection route. So, if they'd joined the pack with the second-best flights, they'd have been in a competitive situation.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Watching Top Chef NOLA - I had to laugh when local chef Justin mentioned losing to Commander's chef Tory McPhail in this year's Southern Chef James Beard Award, because I know one of his sous chefs who said that he was incensed at losing and would scream at every mistake made by saying that's why he lost to McPhail.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I know that my beloved kale with bacon and an egg on top is like the epitome of 2012 food, but I still fucking love it!!

Project Runway: OH THANK GOD.

They freaked me out during the judging.

Because books.

I did feel like they all did pretty well, though! There wasn't one stand-out awful collection. Justin had a lot of pieces I actually liked, and so did Alexandria, although there's no doubt the only women who can wear her clothes well are toothpicks.

I wanted to like Bradon's more than I did, because I love Bradon, but I'm super happy Dom won.

Justin's best piece was the bottle dress (or whatever that was), I thought.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Yes, I agree. I was really disappointed in Bradon's collection.

I loved every piece in Dom's collection (although I would ask that she start thinking about women who wear bras, because just about everything she had was backless)

I didn't like Alexandra's collection, although I appreciate that it was fashionable and well made. Just not my style.

Justin's was eh. But, Justin is eh. I think that he got to the finale because Tim used his save and they felt that needed to be justified. Tim would have been better off using it for Jeremy or Kate.
