I thought it was interesting that Jughead made Betty the evil mastermind behind the plot to kill Mr. Honey. Does he admire her Dark Betty ruthlessness? Or is there some hostility involved? Is it a foreshadowing of Jug finding out about the clandestine Barchie kiss? Hmm...  But we won’t find out until next season...if…

It’s been rumored that Riverdale would do a five-year time jump to match the time frame of “Katy Keene,” and to avoid the dreaded slump that so often happens when shows try to put high school characters through college. But the way events in the real world have affected the Riverdale universe, I can see the show…

The five-year time jump to match Katy Keene has been hinted at (and more) in various articles for at least a couple of months now.

Kevin is going to Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, and Fangs is going to the University of Pittsburgh. How the heck did Fangs snag a scholarship?

I’m outside of New York, but I do think about the Cuomos occasionally. Only occasionally.

Yay!!! Now more than ever, the world needs cake!

Also I cry like 3 times a day, I don’t really need to be re-applying smudgy makeup all day long.

No, I’m not wearing makeup. I never, ever wear makeup. Haven’t worn any since my wedding, and that was a looooong time ago. I think putting on makeup every day is a boring-ass ritual that would only make me aware of my “imperfections.” I have more interesting things to focus on, like sleeping 15 more minutes or having…

Sure some Boomers have tattoos. But they’re more prevalent in later generations.

Aah, crap! I was born at the very, very end of the baby boom, but I think of myself more as Gen X. But my utter lack of tattoos makes me a Boomer. Dammit!

I had some unpleasant experiences with home waxing of facial hair, which lead me to rely on the pros and/or find a different home hair removal method, both of which I did. When I did try home waxing, I used a Sally Hansen kit. One thing I learned that might be useful: the skin must be clean and dry, and (the thing I…

I tend to agree with you...an aro/ace Jughead would have made Riverdale more interesting, definitely out of the teen drama mold. But they did what they did...

Definitely faking the entire FBI affiliation through some epically ridiculous contrivances.

Oh, yeah... Re: “Carousel” and “Oklahoma!” Both suggestions reveal that Mr. Honey is even more out of touch than he seems to be...or firmly stuck in the 1940s end of the time warp that is Riverdale/Archie comics. While both musicals would have been fine in the 50s, or even the 70s, a true 21st century Mr. Honey would …

I enjoyed the “Hedwig” numbers immensely, especially, as you said, the sleepover/pillow fight one. I also like the one where Kevin lays a kiss on Archie...woo! (I’ve always thought the makeout scene between Kevin and Joaquin in S1was one the hottest ones ever on the show.)

Eclecticsim.

You’re probably right, but I have several middle-aged friends who proudly call themselves feminists who are making masks. One is a skilled sewist who makes masks for her friends and drops them off at their homes. Another reports she hasn’t sewn since a disastrous home ec class in junior high, but she is doggedly…

Yep. “Seamstress” isn’t great, either. The woman who made my wedding dress didn’t call herself a seamstress; she called herself a dressmaker. That she was. 

The “Celebrated Wheat Biscuits” are Shredded Wheat. Has no one ever noticed that Triscuits are basically flat Shredded Wheat with salt and oil?

What is it with Clinton Administration dudes? There’s that episode of “Friends,” “The One with George Stephanapoulos,” where the girls have a sleepover and discover that George lives across the way (a few doors down from Ugly Naked Guy?). That is one silly and fun episode.
