I have not laughed this hard at a gif in, well, ever. You win this thread.

That's so interesting—my husband grew up Catholic, and he has no comprehension of Catholic guilt. He also has no shame—a really hard guy to embarrass. I was raised in a protestant church, and I am so much more susceptible to guilt and humiliation than he is. I am pretty much constantly embarrassed, first-hand,…

Thank you, Dr. Brennan!

I laughed. Until I cried.
