I’m with you there on the Noah, but I just keep looking at Cole as an aging Pacey so I’m still a little interested in a morbid kind of way as to what he’s been up to lately :)

It’s not about Noah; it’s that apparently Helen has gone all Cali neo-hippie and everything is now just “whatever, man.”

Fiona Apples dreadful caterwauling is always the worst part of this show. 

It’s hilarious that you don’t think that they do. I have three sisters; ALL of their husbands bitched about how much money they did or didn’t make. My first husband bitched at me, as well. My second husband did not. So anecdotally, we are 4 out of 5 here. After my second husband passed many of the men I dated were…

I have fallen for that, drank that kool aid, and it availed me nothing but health issues caused by stress. Former supervisor dangled the carrot of one step up the ladder if only I would do all the things she asked me to do, regardless of appropriateness. Right before she left she admitted I would never be promoted…

Such wisdom is rare for one in management, in my experience. And for that we thank you.

In other words, I agree with you, Tzepish.

You are equating “cool stuff” with risk taking. “Cool stuff” may be something that looks flashy but has little substance, for example. I think you are the first poster to mention risk taking.
