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

We have not seen that one yet!!

It's freaking golden. I know I missed half the allusions.

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

Thanks to the massive peer pressure (and because I am really easy), I watched the first episode last night. Way too much Chevy Chase, but the rest was cute and fun enough that I'll watch at least a few more.

I hope you watch enough to fall for Troy and Abed. They deserve the love.

Is my stomach going to hurt for the rest of my life? This is stupid.

Because books.

Perkins dragged me along with her. I watched two and loved it.

I still have residual Chevy fondness from Caddyshack and Foul Play, though, so he doesn't really bother me. I'm already all hearteyes about Abed, too.

I do love Foul Play, even with the Chevy.

I have a sad, sad fondness for the Manilow soundtrack. And Goldie's Bug!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

And Castillo was immediately picked up by the Phillies. That could be a disaster in the making for us.

Oh, Mets fans. See what the last few years have done to you? You're all flinchy. It's bad for the Phillies. I guarantee you.

Dude, the Mets are paying Castillo's salary to play for its divisional rivals. This can't end well.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I feel a need to point out that radiation levels in food that exceed government standards does not necessarily mean "dangerous" levels, as the headlines say.

I just saw a FB posting from a friend that said:

let's just be clear on something-- the whole idea of "acceptable" levels of radiation is kind of bullshit, right?

I said (probably woefully inadequately)

Well, it depends on the context. We're exposed to radiation every time we fly on a plane, have an X-ray, or many other everyday situations. So, I actually do not believe that tracking and calibrating acceptable levels of radiation is bullshit- it's important to quantify what's damaging and what isn't.

her response was "yeah, but when there's radiation in your milk, that's probably a bit more problematic."

Are there any other points I can make or should I walk away?
