Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

This Shiksa loves matzo year-round. Its a giant cracker - what's not to love?

Though my annual splash-out on a $3 case of matzo is about to happen and usually lasts a while. Matzo brei is the best when you have a bunch of house guests. Once I used a box of onion matzo for savory brei that I served with sour cream. Good stuff.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

listening to Midnight Burger

The Patreon drop? If so: (1) Krok, you fucking poser, and (2) I told Tim that the way Ava talks to Carl the cat is the way I talk to Murderbiscuit all day long. (She totally should have named the cat "Murderbiscuit," because that fits her entire vibe.)

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Ugh, I should not have opted for high caffeine blend coffee from the convenience store this morning, my stomach's been feeling ooky ever since. Even application of grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup at lunch didn't seem to help much.

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

Haha, you’re so right, Tep!

Trudy, I mean the matzo that’s labeled “not for passover use” which is all that’s left on the shelves now…

[spoiler] I am using it anyway

Feel better, Matt.

Steph, yes, Krok the Crock. How Dickensian! and, also, yes re: the missed op with Carl's name. Randomly, I enjoy Fiona and her crew. I hope Leif gets to meet the Ert.

Yes! I especially love Phil.

I hope Leif gets to meet the Ert.

He deserves it!

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

Pam Bondi is out. Big surprise.

However, it's a glorious day in SF (after a rainy yesterday) and I got to have coffee with my friend Rachael this morning, and then I have Pilates with her this afternoon (she's my teacher).

Carl is a pretty good name, though
