Punishingly Intricate

The horrifying part was: "Adopted by the 3rd, or euthanized."

God, way to emotionally blackmail people. Come on! this person couldn't find a no-kill shelter or cat rescue for her cat?! In freaking Seattle? (You're in Seattle, right?)

I am staying up way too late and will regret it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Someone on WX just used the phrase "nuked the fridge" to mean "jump the shark." Has anyone ever heard that before?

"nuked the fridge"

Maybe it has something to do with the most recent Indiana Jones movie?

Not condoning just trying to find an explanation.

Yes, it started showing up not long after the movie came out. Here's a posting from June, 2008: [link]

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I predict that rightfully, 'nuked the fridge' will be replaced by 'hit the White House with a tidal wave AND an aircraft carrier.'
