It means the more letters you can add, the more morally superior you can feel.

So how do you pay the lesbians then?

Dammit, the subtext was one of the most fun parts about Xena.

Quite boring, really. Anything can get stale after enough time.

I assume you're just joking there, because the character Supergirl herself explicitly stated this, in-show.

Yeah, they should have got Kim Kardasian (sp?) to give the message.

That didn't really work for me - it was too obvious, too cheesy. And she loses faith in her hero after a message from some media tycoon?
It would have been more realistic to have the girl's mother throw it away, and maybe have the child crying.

Interesting. Perhaps it sounds more deliberate to you because the extra "of" requires that much effort, emphasizing it.

Maybe not in the long run, but that's no reason to give up. Standards must be maintained to the bitter end.

This was explained. Kara will burn out from being Supergirl 24/7. She needs the downtime at the office.

I'm more surprised that Cat isn't a Republican.

There can be new regulars perhaps. Or just scenes of Kara being human with her friends after work, in restaurants, etc. I like Kara (human) but I also think it's a bit disrespectful to have Cat, probably the most intelligent person in the room (Winn?) to not know - or worse, know and then be fooled.

I'm a prescriptivist through and through.

No, but if anyone should know, it's Cat. Otherwise it makes her look stupid.

Who was she in iZombie?

Yeah, Teen Herc I could understand. But then they had him doing his Labours, and clearly no longer teen, and he just looked skinny.

"From" is good too. But my rant was that if you do use "off," just don't add the "of."

Vernacular speech is often sloppy, but I would hope that the more educated Americans would know better. I blame the Internet. The problem with the Internet is that it allows everyone to write in the way they speak, without benefit of an editor or even, in many cases, much actual knowledge of their own language. It's…

Maybe her aunt left her her wardrobe in her Will…?
