So people at working are looking round at me because I'm laughing so much. That AIM conversation is priceless.

"Lesbian cocksucker". Ha!

Of course you like him, Shawn. You like Oliver.

Yeah, you got me. But Adam is too charismatic! Feh on you.

I actually see a reason for Lana on the screen

Share, please? I still don't get her, and the idea of anyone plotzing over her makes me slightly ill. I've come to terms with Clark doing it, but each successive worshipper makes it worse.

I wonder if next week it'll be about Lana misunderstanding his dark secret?

I think another of my reservations is the rumour he's Bruce Wayne. He's not. Just not.

Dear god, that AIM transcript was horrifyingly funny! Thanks for sharing.

Missed Smallville again. Phooey.

I enjoyed Smallville. Obviously I have low standards for it. . . but I was trying to get to a place where Chloe has to leave town and assume another identity so that she BECOMES Lois.

But I can't get it to work. . . .

I thought last night's Smallville was pretty bad. I know logic is out the window with this show, and I need to let go, but the fact that Smallville seems to be a suburb of Metropolis kills me every single time. Also, I was hoping with Clark staying away from Lana that we'd get less Lana, but noooo. I was originally "meh" on her, but now I think she is just wasting space and screen time.

This time, they didn't even bother to give Pete some token lines.

Chloe's character really has taken a hit the past couple of episodes. She has definitely retreated. The Lois Lane connection made me wonder what Chloe's going to do when she finds out that Clark loves Lois, rather than Chloe. Commit suicide?

Mind-controlled Martha and Jonathan were just too funny. Someone should have told them that they weren't replaced by robots.

The only scenes I thought were well-done were Lex in "Brainwave's" apartment, and the final scene.

But no, to me he screams "technical obstacle to twu wuv" and he's not even goodlooking.

Ian Somerhalder, right? For some reason I find him hot, even though I normally don't like the CK underwear model types. Maybe I sympathized too much with his character in Rules of Attraction.

I thought last night's Smallville was pretty bad.

Agreed. Last night's Smallville both sucked and blew.

I slept through ten minutes or so and made dinner during another part.

Questions: Who has the disc with Chloe's stories on them? Lex? The Daily Planet editor who was killed - he wrote Lois Lane's name on them, right? Who knows that is Chloe's psuedonym? Does Lex? Anybody else?

My theory was that Chloe would turn out to be Lois, eventually, but 1) my theories are never right and 2) every spoiler I've seen said that Lois wouldn't be introduced until next season. Hmm.

I don't like Adam either - but I did like him getting pissy with Lana there for a second.

but the fact that Smallville seems to be a suburb of Metropolis kills me every single time.

It's been stated that it's a three-hour drive, but OMG. No kidding. As an actual resident of Kansas - I find it particularly hilarious/stupid.

And so now Lex is going to try to get his memories back? I love Lex and want him to be crazy - but it was boring enough to see him make those memories in the first part of the season - I'm going to die if we have to go through the whole finding out Luther (edit: I meant Lionel) killed grandma and grandpa again.

It's been stated that it's a three-hour drive, but OMG. No kidding.

Really? They go back and forth so much that I figured it was, like, a Sunnydale-to-L.A. distance -- less than two hours on a really bad day.

And I skipped Smallville last night, so I have nothing to add. Doesn't sound like I missed much.

Chloe told Lionel last week when she got fired that she had a three hour drive to get home. I pay attention to these things because I know that if you were really out in the middle of Kansas, the only thing that is three hours away is - the middle of Kansas.
