I know Sam Bee and Jason Jones have a thing coming up, but that tribute was the first I'd heard about Riggle.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

HIMYM: the stuff about Ted and his sister was all pretty cheesy and standard sitcom-y but I loved Marshall and Robin hanging out together. Sweet but not sappy and there were some hilarious moments (the guy from the MN bar carrying the Texas interloper out like a baby made me laugh out loud).

I didn't get the karaoke song until the very end, and then it was hilarious.
I thought that the "fake sex" thing was stupid.

Yeah that was stupid. I didn't like the sister either. Givent that it's this show though, I'm afraid she's going to keep coming back.

Is that the same sister who came to visit before, or was that a different sister? Or am I wrong completely? (I remember something vague about going to the Empire State Building...)
ION, I laughed at the end of last night's Big Bang Theory so hard I almost choked to death. Good times.

well, why go through all of the hassle about the lease if we're not going to see her again? I forsee a stupid storyline about her trying to sleep with Barney because he won't and Barney trying to "stay strong"

I think it's supposed to be. The sister in that one was much younger, I thought. But, who knows how time runs on this series.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

That was Robin's sister, not Ted's, wasn't it?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
The Empire State Building was Robin's teenaged sister that Robin was trying to talk out of having sex.
My absolute favorite moment of the episode was Marshall singing "Let's Go to the Mall", knowing all the words, and all the other Canadians knowing the words too. So funny! Robin Sparkles will never get old.
The last scene from Big Bang Theory had me clutching my chest, though. Oh my god, brilliance.

well, that makes sense why she was so much younger. I think I got confused with the irresponsible sister and the having of the sex.
