I work in MA, and the OUI law looks incredibly scary… but there are little exceptions all over the place that can, in practice, dramatically reduce the severity of the penalties faced by an "ordinary" first offender (i.e., there was no accident, it wasn't a minor driver, their license was in good order otherwise, etc.)

Agreed. I could smell the quality on Community from the get-go. The intellectual pace of the show was (is?) stunning. For every comedy and television trope it burned in the fires of deconstructionism, it first lovingly hand-crafted a high-quality example of it, and then managed to milk the idol, the fire, and the…

Nina's going to stumble into a dark alley, and a lurking deus ex machina is going to sucker punch her and toss her back onto the character-incest pile, despite the fact that in a world full of 7 billion people, someone with her abilities could absolutely disappear - at least from the Big Boy Radar - almost…
