I forgot the baby thing. But remember the awesome crazy dude in the mirror? I can't remember his name, dammit, but GOD I loved him!

Oh, but remember the sweet awkwardness as Billy and Allison realized that they weren't just roomies, they were in looooove? No?

I utterly concur with you, @TomWaits.

@damn yankee lad — Presumably because otherwise they'd stick together in an inedible gummi mass. Well, maybe not completely inedible, but annoyingly lumpy.

I love my dead gay son!

@TomWaits - What ISN'T?

Excellent call, Maneki Nekk!

True story: Tonight while eating dinner at a generic Mexican chain restaurant, "Another Brick In The Wall (Pt. 2)" came on (I have no idea who programmed their music), and my nine-year-old son asked "Isn't this the Pink Floyd song about turning kids into kind of like robots?"

Aw, you guys! (Even you, alarming troll who apparently knows me a tad too well.) I've missed you so!

Seriously, I've just been missing you guys. Also, regarding Snickers, caramel is an essential part of the gestalt — fudge is nasty.

I am shocked, SHOCKED at this!

I think Roy's was taken over by Hardees (do THEY still exist?) outside of the I95 rest-stop corridor. And they are essentially inedible now, much to my everlasting regret. I used to adore their roast beef sandwiches (with extra pickles from the Fixin's Bar, natch).

Wendy's Chicken Nuggets
Noel, I must throw down the gauntlet and defend Wendy's chicken nuggets, which taste a hell of a lot more like chicken than any other chain's bits of chicken encased in friedness. I may be deranged to even have an opinion about this crap, but they are pretty decent.

Thank you for acknowledging the pathetic, sad parental dependence on the compressed gobs of fried sadness packaged with cheap ass plastic toys. So gross, but so palatable for the young 'uns!

@TomWaits — that was actually a quite succinct description of their perspectives. Kudos!

I'm flattered that Sean thinks we have enough buzz to kill on weekdays. Friday, sure, we're all psyched for the weekend. But come Monday you think we need HELP to be miserable?
