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

Cecilia was my favorite song when I was 3. I made up a dance to it, according to my mom.

I bet you were adorable!

Cecilia would definitely have been on my list of possible names for Matilda, except I still struggle a bit with my "s" sounds, and any name that either started with S or had two s's was right out.

And about the t-shirts, someone should definitely do a two-sided one of the pie-bar and bar-pie charts, one on the front and one on the back.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

The charts were great!

And I love the ongoing things like the intervention.

And I am JZ regarding Barney & the skeeve.

The Your Mother fakeouts are, like, the whole point! I mean, if I were the (rapidly aging) kids, I would be cranky about being told this whole story instead of how dad met mom, but from the viewer perspective I can't see being upset about it. Won't the show be over once we find out? Okay, probably not, but it would be a sea change.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

The Your Mother fakeouts are, like, the whole point!

Heh. Yeah, you're right. It's fun to speculate aimlessly though.

I like Barney best when we see layers of goodness beneath the skeeve, or when someone is calling him on his skeeviness

He's adorable. It's cuter 'cause you have to work to get to it.

ROBIN+BARNEY4EVUH. Etc.

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

Yes! That is so needed I can't even stand it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

except I still struggle a bit with my "s" sounds, and any name that either started with S or had two s's was right out.

That's why she's now Jacqueline Thmay.

The Office made me smile tonight. And want to go dancing. I can't remember the last time I did! That is sad.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Yes, nice light-hearted episode. Even Dwight was a nice person for a while.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Yeah, that was a very sweet episode. And Mindy Kaling can shake her groove thing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

The Office: Ouch. Ouch ouch ouch ouch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG 30 ROCK.
