It was nice to see Raylan giving Bob his props. "Him setting the bar so high..."
I enjoyed all the drew-puns AND the Yolo misnamings. I caught Yoda and Yoohoo...but can't remember the others. Fun dialog.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can someone who watches Supernatural calibrate the beating for me? I mean, I watched it and it wasn't fun, but it didn't stand out.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Like Dana, I couldn't really watch it, but then I am a wuss.

I am not a good judge of onscreen brutality.

Ah, yes--Criminal Minds is another show I'd measure pummelling grossness by.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am not usually a wuss, but there was something about this one. But I would have to watch all of it to tell you what it was.

For me it was that it just. Kept. Going. I was expecting Bob to either give up Raylan, or to get knocked out and/or killed, but he just kept taking it. Plus the music that was playing, which struck as a blatant homage to Reservoir Dogs, and also reminded me of the scene of the sheriff and his family getting killed to the sounds of Johnny Mathis in the X-File's "Home".

It was very Reservoir Dogs ish, especially at the beginning.
Honestly, I was thinking "Yolo looks really vulnerable to a groin kick, I wonder if Bob will take it?" for at least some of it. And then wondering if I was not getting the Drew puns or not hearing them right.

I could probably watch it now, knowing he lives. I have to rewatch the episode anyway, once my husband and I are in the same city again.

I had been spoiled that Bob was going to get a hurtin' so, as soon as I saw it coming, I jumped ahead. Then, went back in little pieces until I could watch the whole thing. I'm glad I did because, apart from the gore, the interchanges between the two a really charming...in a totally disturbing way, of course.
It's just a really well written scene.
