Doesn't Robin strike everyone as a bit too independent to get into that sort of situation?

I don't know, she might move in with Ted if there was some issue with her apartment, for example. But, doesn't she have a million animals?

I agree with allieann and someone from the previous page that I'm too lazy to go back and look at. It was less about Robin, and more about Barney doing shitty things and Ted getting tired of putting up with it.

Finally caught up on HIMYM. Personally I don't see how Barney and Ted would ever actually be friends, but I hope they don't change Barney's character too much. He's why I watch the show.

It seemed like a lot of Robin and Ted's problems living together the first time around arose from her not being willing to share "her" space with him. That may be different if she moves to his place.

I have to say, I think this is a major reason why I'm having issues with my housemate. Aside from a number of other little things, I moved into his house, and, in the end, I just don't feel at home there.

I don't know what the goat thing means, but, have they always been ending the show with teasers like that? First, Robin and Barney, now the living arrangements.

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

Aside from the goat question, I am confused by Ted and Stella. I thought when they went on the 10-minute date that he acknowledged that she couldn't make time for a boyfriend but now he keeps saying he's "with Stella". I guess I should just take him at his word, but every single time I think "Wait. What? You are?"

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

But, doesn't she have a million animals?

She had some from her exes, but she sent them to live on the farm because Ted kept thinking about the guys who gave them to her.

"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

She should get them back from the farm before she moves into Ted's apartment. (While I thought Robin should have just sucked it up and dealt with the fact that a lot of Ted's belongings were from previous girlfriends, giving up her pets over his insecurity was really beyond the pale. At least hair conditioner or a pillow won't be wondering why it never sees its human anymore...)

I've been watching Kitchen Confidential on hulu, and I was pleasantly surprised to see Morena Baccarin in episode 11.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I love that show and plan to buy it. It was very authentic to my restaurant experience. Plus funny and sexy.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I bounce back and forth on The Office. Toby came across as, at best, an idiot and, at worst, a hopelessly incompetent jerk. Giving Jim a "formal warning" -- in large part, let's face it, over his relationship with Pam -- and egging Michael on to "do something" about Stanley without addressing the implications of Michael's assumption that Stanley would be The Expert on rap came across as utterly clueless.

Of course, Stanley's one-on-one meeting with Michael might have gone better if he'd given a specific or two.

No fallout from the night out with Ryan? I keep thinking that will come back to bite somebody. Hard.

Not sure exactly WHERE to put this, but did anyone see last night's Colbert Report? He finally got Rain to do the dance-off (I'm sure at least partly because he's in Speed Racer), and it was frelling hysterical!!!!!
