Only because I saw the mime-rapist episode when I was about 9, and it left me with some pretty fucked-up feelings regarding sex and pregnancy. That was fundamentally disturbing in every way, especially for a show I watched with my mom.

Why? I just don't get the hate for TT (though she's far from my favorite character).

I'm always partial to the episodes that my 5-year-old can enjoy with me. "The Eyes" is one of those, and "whacked-out poo brain" has become a staple of his vocabulary. This week's episode "Box Prince" is another that he loves, despite Sava's criticism that it was just an excuse for Finn to interact with cute cats. So

Yes! We need her investigating malfeasance wherever it appears!

This highlights my biggest Survivor peeve, which is the whole idea of "heroes" and "villains".  Anytime anyone agonizes over playing the game the honorable way, my eyes glaze over. It's a game!

It doesn't make a lot of sense for me in most of these pairings for anyone to switch out with a loved one stuck on RI, EXCEPT for Rupert, because he's had so many bites at the apple, AND because it happened the first dat. Giving his wife a chance to play for the sheer fun of it, was the right move. I don't see that as

He's not handsome. On first glance he has a pleasing face, but there's something about it that just doesn't sit well.  Maybe it's the inner heinousness shining through.

I'm just having a really hard time processing that he has a fiance. Especially one who doesn't seem like a giant douchebag (at least not yet).

I'm the opposite. I'm 35 and don't want to be referred to as "girl". Once you get past a certain age, it's either condescending (coming from others) or sad (coming from oneself). 

I really like the voice work for PB. When she woke up instantly annoyed at the Gumball Guardians, for example: I laughed just at the quality of the irritation in her voice.

That's pretty amazing. My boys are the same age and would never have picked up on that.

He is a dad now, after all.

I giggled for five minutes after that scene, just from Buscemi's face.

Not just washing, but lovingly bathing the carrot.

I read that NYT article below. I grew up in Hartford, still live in the area, and NO ONE around here says "CAY-ump" for "camp" or "FEAR-ee" for "ferry".  That's some bullshit right there.

As a Hartford native I really, really wanted to cleverly dispute your statement. Sadly, I can't think of one goddamn way to do it.

Good point.

Ahh, but Lincoln had that quality so many politicians lack: the ability to change his mind. He was coming around on civil rights, he was, dammit!

My kids absolutely love his stuff. (Every baby and toddler I know freaks out over "Billie Jean"). I'm older enough to remember when MJ was just your everyday pop superstar, not a chimp-loving kiddie diddler, so I cling to that image when my kids are rocking out to "Smooth Criminal".
