@avclub-6a2ec3076bb494e5c64eb1a422d9fe3d:disqus I just joined two days ago and have already sent one message (I am in fact a girl).  I am a little worried about spending hours in front of the computer reading through profiles, so I am trying to ease my way into it.  I promise to not wait for the douches come to me :)

Lucky for you!  I think the advice runs more towards the "don't pull out anything" than "don't plant anything". People just have a tendency to move in and want to make it their own, but if you move to a new spot, you might be pulling out a treasure unknown to you!  For example - it turns out a I have a fig tree in my…

It sounds like you are still one season away from one of the worst storylines ever on this or any show.  And yet, I watched it through to the end.  I just found the game-playing and conniving so enthralling. 

Holy shit is that tough.  I agree with Smacky that you should take some initiative and not just wait for a call for assistance that might never come.  Call to get food/watch TV/etc, then stealth clean things up around the house.

Neighbor hijack of this thread: I think I did not tell the story here of how about a month ago I was walking my dogs with my neighbor and I asked him how things had settled down in the house now that Mike was gone (this house has about 6 people of all ages - including Vietnam Vets - in it).  He said "You mean Mike the…

Congrats!  Everyone will give you some advice, so here's mine:  don't change anything in your lawn for one year.  See how things bloom and are shaded, take notes if you are into gardening, but live with everything for a while before you make any changes (aside from rotting trees or something dangerous).

People will always try to sell you something a little higher than your price range.  Don't fall for it.  Stick to your budget.

I also was inspired to put up an OK Cupid profile after last week's discussion!  According to an email I got from them yesterday, the guys want me "so bad" :)  This seems to be in direct conflict with, um, let's just say "reality", so I'm not sure what to think.  Good luck to you!

What color is that blue?  I am thinking of going with a blue-gray color for my spare room and have a few samples in mind, but that looks like what I"m going for.

@avclub-87caf7c42aedbada42572e2374eed08d:disqus I"m trying to come up with a cock pun for Ewan MacGregor

Do guys have a favorite side, or do they like to switch it up?

And really, not just Hendricks.  If you're a female actress it's pretty much a given that you are expected to strip for the camera at some point.  Tits or GTFO is the norm.  So boo-fucking-Jon Hamm (whom I love, but really, get a grip.  And not just of your enormous cock).

Padma is the worst character on a show that has both Declan and Charlotte, that is how awful she is.

Oh,I'm kind of excited about this!  Thanks for the heads up!

Glad to see this here - I commented on it above as well (falling behind on my Revenge - just like Emily!).

Is that box really the kind of think one can keep in prison?  Don't they go through people's personal effects at some point?

Oh, god, Tracy Jordan's "son" was to me the worst storyline in 30 Rock history!  Any indifference I had towards Eli is now intense dislike.

If David Clarke is still alive I am totally giving up on this show.

@K Thrace - that is absolutely the first thing I thought of when I clicked on this article!  That dude in the middle was the crazy CSI tech who turned murderer to get his place in the sun!

I quite enjoyed Jason Heller's book Taft 2012 - a generally fun read with more emotional depth than I was expecting.
