I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, at this point, with seeing the Future!Marshmallow and Future!Lilypad, (which, aww) I guess my original (pre-wedding) theory that Your Mother was Lily is shot.

eta: If they'd kept the kids-on-the-couch conceit, the kids would be murderous by now. Get to the point, dad! Your sexual escapades tales? Do Not Want! Tell us about Mom!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Ugly Betty:

Last season, when Henry was first coming around, did I miss any discussion that he was in an episode of Buffy? Because he kept looking excessively familar, so I finally bothered to look it up. And not just any episode -- he played James (dead angry 1950s lovesick ghost boy) in I Only Have Eyes For You.

Awwww.

Justin = big woobie.

Every episode, I love Marc a little more.

Also, there is NO WAY they would kill Betty's dad, after killing Santos. Right?

....right???

The Office: I just came in and caught the tail end of Michael's talking head - who was he talking about?

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

I need some more context. What was he saying? He was probably talking about Ryan.

The TH where Pam was all "mock-up, splash screen, I don't know what I'm talking about"...she was so fucking adorable I wanted to reach through the TV and kiss her.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm a little worried that The Office is heading toward an emphasis on intra-office romantic relationships. Which could be a little too close to soap opera land to be good for the show.

Good for Ryan making it clear during the first minute that he is the boss now and no longer the intern/temp. Bad for Ryan deciding to get rid of Kelly because their break-up is getting messy. Also bad for Ryan positioning the changes as an emphasis on youth as opposed to joining the 20th century. Jury's still out on having Pam work on the logo -- we'll see if he tries to grab all the credit.

I see Ryan trying to get rid of Michael in the near future.

I'm not so sure I felt the mild sympathy for Michael that I usually feel. Probably because his motives are usually to do the right thing towards other people. This time, he was trying to benefit himself at least as much as (if not more than) anyone else.

Always Anti-fascist!

Pam looked great yesterday, though, didn't she?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Oh, yes. And her excitement over designing the logo was great to see. Shame Ryan spoiled it by asking her out.

Do you think he'll rescind his offer of having her design the logo now that he knows she's not available?

Oh, hi! I just started watching The Office last night!

I hope not. Did anyone see this design on her sketchpad?
