On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

People that are more observant than me said that it looked like the appliances are now GE or something and not the old Kenmore Craptastic.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

We need to start our own ghost hunting team.

I'm in! I've always wanted to do this! We could "do' the house I grew up in, too. The Ghosts Hunters team is based in NJ, isn't it? Every time I see that show, I think about going and volunteering.

"Bourdain"--it sounds like it should be the name of a hard boiled detective series. I love the fact he's ever only referred to by his last name. I have a hard time remembering the Anthony.

Our wings are not tired

I believe they are actually in Rhode Island.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

And my brain goes to Family Guy.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Everyone always complained about how crap the Kenmore was in their show recaps--most hilarious to me was someone saying they would return the Kenmore kitchen if they won Top Chef, because it was worthless. The setup/layout of this year's kitchen is noticeably different, though. It seems like they have way more room to move.

Hell's Kitchen -- they put Julia in charge! Way for respecting her knowledge!

I love that Julia is getting a little respect at last. The dinner service was pathetic, though. And WTF with picking food out of the trash and trying to serve it to the customers? Julia for president!

That was disgusting! How could Joanna not know that the crab was bad?

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I really wish he'd gotten rid of them both.

I'll also give a big WTF to the whole Aaron story arc. I just don't get why he was ever on the show.
