Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Bortles is a funny sound- also (i have no idea his race) it "sounds" like he could be white, so they don't sound like they are retreading the Orangello joke.

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

So, I'm shopping to pick up stuff at Target, including Halloween candy, and I see they have ghost peeps and I feel like I have to get them and maybe a some chili?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Ha! My therapist watches The Good Place, and I told her that today after therapy I was going to the grocery store for some milk, but maybe I should get chili and M&Ms.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Chili is good. M&Ms are good. But not together.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I could maybe see throwing some in there, for sort of a mole effect. But the peeps are Right Out.

Unless you're having Joey Tribbiani over as a dinner guest, anyway.

I probably won't combine them. Probably.

The Good Place: The Donkey Doug casting was perfect.

I agree, sj.

I haven't checked her Twitter page yet, to see if she's commented on this, but I'm pretty sure Jameela Jamil had to draw on some other-worldly strength not to break during the Donkey Doug/Pillboi " Shark Tank" presentation (and ensuing scenes).

They even end one scene with Michael looking to Tahani for a reaction to the idiocy, but they never show her reaction.

I loved the episode, because it's The Good Place, but I was a little taken aback by the time jump. I'm so used to one episode picking up in the same scene where the last one left off that I thought I missed something.

After dh and I finished "The Ballad of Donkey Doug" the first time, we re-watched "Jeremy Bearimy" again, to see what we'd forgotten, only to realize we hadn't really forgotten anything.

Since he fell asleep, I then watched "The Ballad of Donkey Doug" for a second time, and want to make clear I didn't notice (what I perceived to be) Kameela's superhuman effort not to laugh, until that second viewing.
