Happy Birthday Lillian! Can't wait to meet you in June!!
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's a weird OJ ad with Kyra Sedgwick dancing that has cuts that make it look like it's not her half the time (no way she did those splits and they hid her face). Why her?

I saw that ad yesterday. Not only was I all "Kyra Sedgwick has sunk to doing Tropicana ads?" but also, it's an ad for low-calorie, low-sugar orange juice. Which I find deeply bizarre.

Yeah, but then when I read the book recently, I had totally forgotten, and was surprised when it happened. Good times.
Glad to know I'm not alone on that boat.

It was just comical. I could practically feel the empty space where the password was kept.
Devi's being mean to both the cats. It's gotta be all the boxes and confusion.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I was 5'6" when I was 10. I just never got any taller. After I towered over everyone in my class for a couple of years, it took me several more years to realize that I was not, in fact, tall. This realization was not aided by the fact that most of my female relatives are about 5 feet tall.
it's an ad for low-calorie, low-sugar orange juice. Which I find deeply bizarre.
It's watered-down orange juice with artificial sweetener. I usually water down juice anyway, because it's too sweet for me. You can get twice as much watered-down juice by doing your own diluting, plus you can skip the dubious benefit of sucralose. The concept just baffles me.

I was 5'2" when I was 10. And never got any taller. Of course I "became a woman" when I was nine.

I can't water down orange juice. Cranberry? Grape? Sure. But then adding sucralose? Ick.
Also weird--this season's The Unit.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
When we were kids, we used to drink Welch's grape juice mixed with 50/50 soda, which produced a really refreshing fizzy fruity drink.

I'm 5'2", and I'm boggled by how many women I am taller than when I go to the grocery store. And it's not just the little immigrant ladies.
