Because books.

Well, stuff you eat is going to give you a temporary high, like ... mushrooms, for instance. It's not going to stay in your bloodstream and build up, the way shooting it would.

He's *drinking* it, is my point. But, as it's demon blood and not actual real life drugs, I guess it doesn't matter. It was just when Azazel dripped the blood in baby!Sam's mouth, I thought, "That's coming out in the diaper in a few hours," you know?

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

That's not really accurate. Methadone has a really long half-life and it's most commonly taken orally. Once it's in the bloodstream it doesn't really matter how it got there - the difference between shooting up and drinking is the difference between how fast it hits, not how long it lasts.

It's been weirding me out the entire time how the blood from Ruby's host body can have magical mystical properties, though. I accept it because, magic, but it so doesn't make sense to me.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

well, we've seen oral transmission of supernatural powers via blood a lot in the series, though, so I figure it's par for the course. I mean, vampires just have a bad case of Evil Mono.

Supernatural is all about death, loss, and love. Yeah, there are other ways for characters to come of age, but not many that are fitting for the genre.

Yeah, this. I keep having to remind myself, "Um, NOT REAL," so. And the point of the demon blood drinking gets across anyway.

Yeah. It's not that I don't think it's possible to be an adult without your parents dying, but this is SPN, and they go for the archtypal stuff, not prosaic day-to-day change. Star Wars on backroads, you know?

I do agree that the theme of trust is not accidental, and that the only way for the Winchesters to survive is for them to relearn how to do that.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

If all this conjecture is true, at some point the car will have to die as well.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

But the car comes back, and not even wrong.

I had a sudden image of the car being destroyed and being revived as a Pinto ....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

And people call me evil.
