Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

What is even happening?
Aw, Cindy, your weecaps make me sad. I wish you were enjoying the show more.
Oh, no. Don't worry. Be happy.
I enjoyed this week's much more than last week's, although it ended on such a sad note, it was hard to be all "WOO HOO SHOW" about it.
I am tired of the never-ending gag (Robin not eating last week; Barney not putting his arm down this week), though. I like it better when they thread a couple of plots together. And is it just me, or have the chracters been a little less likable this season?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I don't think it's just you. They've been exceptionally inconsiderate these past couple episodes.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I always enjoy it when Barney suffers. Does he still have slaps left?

HIMYM and The Office need better time slots. I haven't been able to watch either one since the writer's strike. I miss them!

my word, I just had an involuntary fist-pump-"yes!" reaction. I'm currently awaiting disc one of season 3 from Netflix.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Small note on your weecap, Cindy - it's not actually Bruce's "Jersey Girl," it's Bruce singing Tom Waits's "Jersey Girl," about the Jersey girl to whom he's been married for ever and ever (IIRC from Hec's research on his Waits book, he wrote it right after meeting her at a New Year's Eve party; he just knew immediately, even after that brief encounter, that she was important and songworthy).
Thanks to Hec's book, that song just makes me puddle up and so I counted the entire episode as a win, but it may only be because of the song.
Stuff I loved without a song prompting me: Marshall's newfound Jersey love. Jason Segal always comes across onscreen as such a big flumpy Saint Bernard/black bear/looming but harmless galoot of your choice. Setting Marshall free in a warehouse store is so exactly like taking a St. Bernard puppy out of a studio apartment into a big grassy park that it just makes me grin and grin.

You never have to hold a cup ever again, for the rest of your life.

Huh, I never knew that, JZ. Thanks! Usually I look up the music, even when I know it, but I didn't figure I had to do that with Bruce.
I did love Marshall in the PriceCo and I love that he was hugging olives while hating New York and loving New Jersey. It fits in really well with what we saw of him with his family, when he and Lily went home to visit.
