I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

Your point on "bitches" is well taken. It is not just the Supernatural writers who did not think enough about that.

And in this particular instance, the episode was written by Sera Gamble. So either she's tone-deaf to that particular inflection, or it's endemic to the show as a whole.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I don't actually get the impression that Sera is writing from a more feminist viewpoint than the male writers. Aside from wanting to get the guys naked, anyway.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I would think that would be the male writers' goal as well. At least I like to dream it is.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Re color choices in this ep - everyone should read this meta (and its followup) on Color Associations and their role in SPN's visual language. It's pretty much made of awesome and dead-on.

You know the Charlie the Unicorn - Candy Mountain thing? I hate myself but I've had to watch this three times. The YED singing about lollipops.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Today at lunch I was listening to the radio and a song was playing. A rather annoyingly happy song. I'd heard it before and was trying to place it, and finally realized it was from a J2 vid. It was "I think I Love You" by The Partridge Family.

So, well.

What immediately played next was REO Speedwagon's "Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore".

I busted out into hysterical giggling.

Now, tell me that's a coincidence or that DJ is a giant SPN fan.

So true - isn't blue the tradition color to indicate a brunet?
