Tussin DM (it's what's for breakfast): The Conservapedia figures -- I wonder how many of those hits are because non-conservatives are wondering what ridiculous things they have to say about those subjects.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
As a non-white, I submit y'all want a cupcake and not even a muffin. If it scales up to a cake, it's cheating to call it a muffin.
Muffins definitely want to be cupcakes nowadays. I think bagels etc still want to be muffins.
ION, this week's Nip/Tuck might be the creepiest episode ever. Although I know I'm exceptionally skeeved out by crackheads. (And seriously, if you've seen the episode, there are so many things that could be in that whitefont!)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
[Thompson] went on to talk about the importance of adhering to conservative principles in order to prevent the “keys to this country” from being turned over to the Democratic Party, who Thompson said, “are apparently planning for careers in NASCAR. It’s a turn constantly to the left. They will soon wind up back where they started. And some of them are going faster than the others, but they’re all going in same direction in a not very perfect circle.”
And always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!

In America, on the other hand, asking someone what they do for a living is idle chatter, but in Europe or Britain is often never brought up among people who are just meeting.
Heh, I was thinking about that, too! And any question which might in some way hint at your income. Like, "What neighborhood do you live in?" Mugga told me a story about some non-Brits asking his parents about their home, much to their discomfort. Things like, "Oh, do you have a separate den?"
Mugga being Mugga, he implied that they were planning to rob the place.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Investigators in Perugia, Italy, have found new evidence linking a 20-year-old American exchange student, Amanda Knox, to the brutal stabbing death of her roommate, British student Meredith Kercher. According to the latest reports, Knox and her Italian boyfriend, Raphael Sollecito, cleaned the alleged murder weapon—an 8-inch black-handled kitchen knife—with bleach. Nevertheless, police discovered Kercher's DNA on the tip and Knox's DNA by the handle. Is it possible to clean DNA off a knife?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am sadly over Nip/Tuck. It's just not fun anymore.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I really liked the ad with the scarred angel, so I am giving this season a shot to live up to that.

So, I was watching TV and the "spongeworthy" episode happened to be on. I wasn't really paying attention, but I then I realized that the spongworthy guy was a much younger Luke Danes! With hair!

Yeah, I'm afraid so. But I still need it! Apparently. Oh, and I just realized I meant last week's.
I have several shows "on the bubble" -- I don't have any need to watch them ASAP, but do seem to watch them eventually during the week. If I had more of a life, or worked more, or something, I'd probably quit watching.

I miss the old Christian and Troy. Last week's ep with Christian moving into gigolodom-- Matt pointed out he'd done it before, but it's different this time, and more tawdry and Troy visualising the schoolgirl-- again like something he's done before, just worse. They're just all id and icky with it to boot.
