Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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!!!!!

I saw that, Frank. Yes, indeed: awesome.
