Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Has anyone see Newswipe? It's like Jon Stewart, but constantly pissed and British.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

"Pissed" as in they're drunk on camera?

That which does not kill you should RUN

That would be AWESOME.

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

Here's to hoping it's nothing, Jessica.

You mean a client wants something you're building to work like NetFlix does?

I think screenshots of the Netflix queue may be entered into requirements evidence, in fact.

Note to self: Togo's turkey/cranberry sandwiches are NASTY. And I never dreamt she'd put jalapeños in there too. Ick.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Normally I love turkey and cranberry. But jalapeños should not come anywhere near it.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

As in, in response to a freaking out reporter asking HOW THE UNDERWEAR BOMBER COULD HAVE BEEN ALLOWED ON A PLANE!!!ELEVENTY!!11 "I don't know Shouty Hat! You're the fucking reporter! Go find out!" Then in VO: But Shrieky Guts had a point.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Lots and lots of ~ma, Jessica!

Half an hour, half an hour and then I can sleep, just half an hour...

I'm not sure how precisely to fix the sandwich (i.e. what are the right condiments for it), but I do have some suggestions on how not to mess it up. Thankfully my standard sandwich-fixings spiel involves turning down pickles, otherwise this might have been even weirder.
