The alternate realities episode was a thing of beauty, and it's basically the only episode I've seen (saw part of the pilot back in the day, but wasn't wowed by it). Soon to be rectified by DVDs.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
This is where I am with Big Bang Theory, although I'm just watching every syndicated airing ever, not the DVDs. If I don't see Big Bang every. single. day. now (and better, twice!), I start to twitch.
We burned through those, and it sucked when we caught up to the current season, because then we didn't have any more new-to-us episodes. Except the current season, of course. But no more backlog.
Nope--the naked pool ep was also the vampire arms ep, which was Abed.
and AWESOME.
Totally.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, this is just weird. A guy on IO9 was explaining that the Batman thing is why he can't watch Community:
I find a grown man who's filled his house with toys and yet captured a woman to coexist with completely under his rules and then verbally berates he for damaging a $20 disc that he probably forgot he had among all the other junk frightening. I met a guy like this once. Maybe it would be funny for him. Maybe there are more like him who could relate.
I've seen a lot of people say you can't tell someone they're watching the show wrong, but seriously? You can. You totally TOTALLY can.

That reaction is...intense, right? Although I might enjoy a fanfic crossover where Sheldon from Big Bang and Abed from Community sort of...parallel play for a few hours...is that weird?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
That was not a $20 disc. It was $300, first of all. If someone broke my $300 item, I would lose my shit. I'd get over it, but you'd need to deal with me losing my shit first.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Erika, you win for best fannish use of a human development term. I am glad that I am done with my tea, for my sinuses' sake.

I meant the commenter's reaction, not Abed's...it was autographed and stuff. Even not being Abed, I'd be pretty crushed.ETA: Thanks, Debet. For the record, I didn't mean porn.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I meant "parallel-play", as that's totally where Sheldon, at least, is in his socialization, most of the time.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Sheldon? socialization? one of these things is not like the other
