Dude, your field trips sucked.

What other places?

I have trouble keeping track of the rules on this show because there are so many of them and they change so much. But don't shapeshifters have to kill the person whose identity they're stealing? If so, then the evil Nina is from a different universe.

Don't shapeshifters have to kill the person whose identity they're taking on? I think the Nina in the dungeons is the one original to the Amberverse, and that the Nina at Massive Dynamic right now is from another one.

So have all of the Red versions, though, both pre- and post- Peter's erasure & return.

So have we talked yet about what the implications are for the Redverse if the Amberverse turns out just to be the Blueverse rewritten sans Peter? If Amberlivia and Walter regain their memories, will Fauxlivia and Walternate follow suit?

Safely merge the two worlds into one… and become its OVERLORD!!!!!!!

The double row of teeth was one of the creepiest things I've seen on this show. I was still shuddering at the end of the episode. Worse than the dancing corpse in "Marionette."

Maybe the Observer meant that she would die metaphorically.

Totally, and I was thinking how much Walking Dead would be improved by a David Robert Jones.

Yeah, it's almost like they forget she's a witch. Everyone else in the Circle seems to have identified with their powers, but Melissa has always been treated like this hanger-on — the normal that bad things happen to just because of her association with supernatural people.

That actress deserves better. I mean, the character does, too, but I only think that because the actress is so pretty and has done such a nice job with absolute shit writing.

I think I read that back when she modeled, Helmut Newton loved her scar, all but fetishizing it in his photos. She's learned to think of it as something beautiful.

It wasn't just a low-fat challenge, it was for kids at a diabetic camp, I thought — at the very least, it was for a fat camp with a lot of diabetics, thus the sugar issue. I didn't recall that she used Splenda, the loud-mouthed disingenuous bully.

I do not at all recommend the first 3 books, because they are unbelievably boring; but Meyer really let her inner batshit off the chain in the 4th book, and it's highly entertaining.

Oh, she does get rewarded: she dies during gory, gory childbirth, gets turned into a vampire, becomes pretty and graceful, gets to wear designer clothes in classy neutral colors, and meets her baby, who ages unnaturally quickly so that they get to skip the potty-training stage.

But I don't think she's actually trying with most of it. The entire series reads like an extended Freudian slip.

I've heard worse theories. Mm-hm, that's what I meant.

My husband thinks they're an energy source. He gave me a whole hypothetical about our coming across a flock of zombies, dangling bunnies in front of them, and leading them onto treadmills hooked up to a generator. I'm a little concerned about zombie bunnies in that scenario, but I've heard worse ideas, I suppose.

I always thought of it as pulling a Kherington.
