No one is going to mention what a jerk Mei was being to Katsuji (sp?). He almost won the quick fire, but she was making is seem like she couldn't trust him to do anything.

That is not always the case. I had two wisdom teeth removed in June and then my other two last month and both times I went to work that day (the first time I even went directly after the surgery—-before picking up my medication). I was really lucky the first time—the bleeding stopped after an hour and my face didn't…

And at the beginning the actual word clueless was used in a sentence.

I've heard of Stephen Hawking, of course, but I didn't know what he was suffering from so I wikipediaed him after watching the episode and could not get over how long he has survived with ALS. My best friend's father past away from it about a year ago and that was less than two years after his diagnosis. It's a…

I loved Krippendorf's tribe! However I was 8 when I watched it; I wonder what I would think of it if I saw it now.

actually, i.e. stands for "in explanation."

I watch it. And so does my sister and a number of my friends. (We are all female and in our early twenties, if that matters at all).

I agree. I actually laughed, and when watching a comedy, that's all I really ask for.

I was also wondering that. My bet is either something really perverse, or something along the lines of "Santa isn't real."

My favs are Paul, Grayson and Ed. All are likable and seem like strong chefs.

I read it. It was good. Weird but good.

I took forever to read those books because I used to fold the page by every option and then go back later to be sure that I met every outcome possible.

Thanks for reminding me- Spooksville! Loved those books.

You're not. I am American and I read them all and owned most of them- prob still have them around somewhere. And kids are still reading them now- or at least my nine year old nephew is.

I am female. I don't think anyone is "keeping quiet about their gender"- you are just assuming that everyone is male.

I loved the Wayside School! I forgot all about those books. I also loved My Best Friend is A Sixth Grade Alien, Goosebumps, Anamorphs, Replica (and this series that I completely forgot the name- if anyone can help me out it had a character named Watch and it was basically about a group of kid who fought monsters which…

I have three older sisters so between the four of us we owned almost all of the Baby Sitter's club books (including Baby Sitter's Little Sister, featuring Karen Watson) and the Sweet Valley series ( including SV and Friends, SV junior high, SV Senior year). I think I read every book from both series- excluding Sweet…

Loved Max! It was nice to see him again. If he would not have been booted out in that farce of a pressure test, he would have made it to the top 5.

Thanks! What can I say- it was a stroke of genius. And your study actually sounds quite interesting. I am no linguistics expert, but I did take one class in the subject so I have a basic understanding of what you are talking about.

it may be fake (and it probably is), but I can't help remembering my neighbor who moved here (specifically: Brooklyn, NY) from London and tried to loose her accent as quickly as possible to "fit in". Maybe the same thing happened with OlivIer?
