Why do so many football players think god cares about football?
Giles: I jump out of the circle, jump back in, and, and, shake my gourd. Buffy: Hey, I think I know this ritual. The ancient shamans were next called upon to do the Hokey-Pokey and to turn themselves around.

HMOG, the lights! That is so horribly hilarious. I wasn't really watching the game- I was at a party where it was on, then left, then got sn irate message from a friend in Baltimore about the lights that I didn't understand till I looked at facebook an hour or so later.
I cannot stop snickering about entergy blaming "the customer." WELCOME TO OUR WORLD, RICH AND POWERFUL PEOPLE. This is how it feels to be dicked over, hope you had fun. MITCH LANDRIEU.

Since the stadium did have some power, I don't see how it could be have been Entergy's fault.
I suspect they tried to be too fancy with the lights: [link]

Ah, sorry Ginger. I had more a knee jerk urge to mock. Not entirely fair, I know.

I do agree that Entergy is a dorky name, but it's much shorter than "many podunk power companies smushed together."

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Ginger, those exterior lights have been up and running for a year or so. Maybe they did some upgrades inside? Probably not Entergy's fault, true, but their reputation here is... not great. Could be the city forgot to pay their power bill because of Mardi Gras - supposedly NOLA forgot to pay their server bill a few years ago during Carnival and couldn't issue any construction permits for weeks. Around here, no telling. I will say it made me root harder for the Ravens, because all jokes aside, I did *not* want the Legend of How NOLA Lost Balmer the Super Bowl.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I got to have dinner with shrift! There was pho involved.

I liked the Clydesdales and the Oreos library commercials.
The Taco Bell one too. Also, extra point to Oreo for this: [link]
(And note the time - within about 10 mins of the power going out.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The "cleanup" of the google image results has extended to the UK and Jamaica now. I can only assume it's everywhere. And that'll learn me--I should have saved the results, because that search I ran before doesn't give the same results anymore, so I can't find the picture I was using as a lighting reference.
Watching This Means War. This movie is psychotic on so many levles. Like psycho enough to love, and then enough to freak me out. I wish they were sowing the boy on boy ending, though, given that all the endings are basically equal.
