The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You mean the one who had sex?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, everyone at TWoP was calling her Palinesque, and I was confused because I didn't get that at all. Why, because she was a woman in politics who had an accent? I really can't see any other similarities.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes, and I didn't get that at all.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Her wardrobe was sort of Palin-y

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Was it un-Rodham-Clintony? I mean, how many different ways can a female politician dress?

To my eye, she looked Palin-y the same way all the Republican women currently campaigning look Palin-y.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I think there was a nod to Palin when her character was introduced. Yes, I think then the character departed from the real person, but I definitely think the first few words, etc. were not an accident.

So you think John is lying about it? He's really not the type to bother. He'd totally take a proper jab at her if he wanted to.

In fact, he says the character is probably a Democrat.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Wow, Palin never even crossed my mind.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

ita,

what I'm saying is that perhaps it wasn't the director's or writer's intent, maybe it was the actor. Sometimes things happen that you don't intend.

If a lot of people are seeing a particular reference in a creative work - one that wasn't intended, maybe the reference got in there subconsciously?
