"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Yeah. I mean, broadly, I understand the disappointment...there is much more "Brilliant But Cancelled" in my viewing history rather than fixtures, aside from "Friends" and "Frasier" and, maybe "THe Golden Girls" which I watched because either grandmother liked it and because there was nothing on on Sundays but occasionally young fannish people ask me about it like I got to see Yalta first-hand. It didn't feel that way when I was watching it.)And, yes, I think I'm a Dorothy--she couldn't escape her mother either! (and most of that stuff didn't get a movie, y'all demanding bastards, I add with affection. And, yeah, the movie was, you know, exciting and stuff, but I go years without thinking about it, except that I see Morena in an ugly sheriff's uniform in a commercial now and then.) Wow, that's weird. Now I feel like Homer Simpson reading "Previous instances where I professed to like you were fraudulent." to Ned at the mental hospital(I guess that was a fixture once, too.)

An Italian bakery had never heard of pannetone? Who do they have working there?? It’d be one thing if they said “it’s a pain, we don’t make it” but…not knowing??

(I love pannetone but just get the Trader Joe’s version which is not amazing but oh well)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The local-to-my-work fancy grocery did a Reel or something of their holiday offerings and I think over half was variations on pannetone. But they don't bake it, they import it, I'm pretty sure. One of those things I don't really know what it is, I think because it's full of something I'm allergic to, but I have heard of it...
