Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Because books.

In Silence of the Lambs they spread menthol under the nose and left it there during the autopsy.

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

Yeah, that's what I was thinking about.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's just because they can't smoke cigars everywhere anymore....

Mmm, cigars. I used to go to the tobacco shop with my old boss so I could stand in the humidor and inhale.

I honestly could not want chocolate more than I do right now.

Dark chocolate is the best. But I may not be helping.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Someone in the office had a birthday so I got a free cupcake. I'm pretty happy about that.

Because books.

Neither of you are helping. Hmph.

Our wings are not tired.

Amy, if you were closer I would bring you a chocolate martini.

Oh, that reminds me I should offer money for the birthday cupcake I had...

Buffista parents -

what is the etiquette in which you bring young children to a restaurant and have them use loud videos or toys to keep them entertained? Is this regular practice, rude, a mix?

My initial reaction is a negative one, but I'm trying to decide if I need to lighten up.
