Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm not sure there's gonna be a day I won't be interested in the LA Times reporting on us and interviewing a character who claimed to be dead. Maybe that's just me. But I doubt it.

Heh. And, hey, if you liked Gus...he's not really dead! So there's that.

GusEddie deserves a yoga fist.

I don't mind the term cougar. I'm 37, I've embraced the inevitable. Although, I suppose that technically you can't be a cougar if you're NGA.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh dear Cash, much ~ma to your father. I had a bad case of whiplash in college and couldn't turn my head for over a month.

OK folks, my eyes popped out of my head a wee bit at the LAT piece. How in the hooey does TV Tropes get into the LAT?

Trust my rage

Seriously. LAT is like, real media.

I just want someone to reveal their source.

Eta: we never knew an Eddie, right? Just to be extra super clear. So we assume he keeps talking about us just to tweak our collective noses?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The taLk of yoga fist reminds me of this NSFW Cracked article: [link] Read down to #6 (if you last that long).

That's not my assumption. I don't think he is thinking about our reaction at all, he's just a sloppy liar.

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

Not a Fast Eddie, no. We do have an Eddie registered, but I have no reason to suspect it's the same guy.

I just think it's weird that he keeps mentioning us by name. i always think of us as under the radar.

Why does he keep bringing us up, dammit?

As long as the tvtropes buffistas.org page says it was a dude named Gus that started tv tropes in his basement. So he should clean that up, or come out of the closet.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Well, he wants to give credit where credit is due.
