This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

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

Who was the Chinese man with Jack in the photo that Buster Wossname was looking at when Jack walked in? Mao Zedong?

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

I thought it was Kim Jong Il but I didn't get a good look. That's just who came to mind.

Ah, yeah, that looks like him. Thanks.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

No Office talk yet? I just watched it and loved it -- definitely a return to form from last week's episode. "What part of shorn't don't you understand?" Michael's blind date was painful to watch, but I'm glad she called him on his rudeness at the end, even if it made no impact. And the Jim/Pam moment at the end -- awwwww. They make my heart go all melty.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I didn't get to see The Office until Friday evening. It felt more like the episode that should have aired for the first time back. Though obviously, they had to break up Michael and Jan first.

I do like that they broke up -- I was worried that relationship would become an undercurrent for the rest of the season. And that would not be a Good Thing for the show. How to Succeed in Business and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf shouldn't be mashed up.

And "Give me a dating opportunity in one hour or you're fired" is pure Michael.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I thought Michael's blind date was almost verbatim from the original Office Xmas special. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

That's what I was thinking too! It was totally more David Brent than Michael Scott.

Oooh, good point, Corwood, now that you mention it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Oh thank God! I'd feared for my sanity after unknowingly finding the Beek hot in that SciFi coma-zombie movie, but tonight's HowI Met Your Mother went that extra mile to make him as unappealing as possible.

Bonus, new Robin Sparkles video! With Tiffany!
