I was laughing, but I lost it when he could barely contain his shame as he said, "And Mercury is in retrograde."

In fairness, it's not played for laughs—the "Hair of the dog?" thing is definitely not supposed to be funny, and Karen (who says the line) seems unhappy and like she's trying to find a way to be sympathetic and help her friend. All of which makes it sound like it's supposed to be funny as I describe it (Haw haw, look…

I'm a square, too, because that was definitely my thought. Charles was ready to marry Marilu Henner, but not the woman he plans to have a baby with? It's not like adopting a dog, guys.

My kids read Scooby-Doo, Adventure Time, Sonic, and one other I can't recall offhand.

What is it with kids and the word "hobo?" Mine use it all the time.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Awesome.

No biggie, friend. I'm just glad you're okay—sometimes I get snippy online because something else is bugging me, and it just seemed unusual for you. I hope you're not upset with me or think I'm a busybody. :-)

Second ep, if memory serves.

Lol, at first I misread that to say, "The whole rooftop scene was shot in my blood!" I thought, damn, you must have needed a lot of juice and cookies after that donation. :-)

I thought the same thing! Let us see that hair, Marvel, c'mon! We so rarely get to these days…

I honestly thought Foggy was joking there, and didn't realize it wasn't a joke until Karen stopped by Matt's place for the "Hair of the dog?" moment. Like, really, Foggy? "Oh, yeah, your boss is an alkie," is the best an attorney could come up with?

Hahahaha! Can't believe I didn't think of that.

I know he did (it honestly didn't seem particularly personal or cruel to me, but it wasn't aimed at me, either, so I can't say how I might have felt if it was). I was just honestly surprised to see it from you, dude, because I've always regarded you as one of the coolest, most fun/interesting, and most rational…

He's been referred to as "The Bat" for years in comics and TAS, especially by Joker and the Riddler (if memory serves).

The personal attack on someone for having PTSD was kind of beneath you, don't you think? I've got to be honest, I'm really surprised to see that from you.
