It's letters like this one that make me really feel my age. I didn't even know this was an issue in these post-sexual-revolution days.

User name/comment synergy! I finally spotted one!

"(I've never really been comfortable in New York)"

@avclub-3db41011acc2d229176bf6a92202728d:disqus my Lebanese friend seemed to be "cousins" with every other Lebanese person I'd ever met or heard of.

I used to live in an apartment facing a narrow alley (maaaybe 10' at most) so anyone even talking near an open window echoed back and forth even more loudly (example: my neighbor across the alleyway had a phone with the same ring as mine, and we'd both go to answer the phone at the same time if the other's rang,

That is a low tolerance indeed.

I was really surprised that I fell for that jump scare, but pleasantly jolted.

It reminded me a lot of "Buffy" too, didn't take itself too seriously but still had it's moments. I don't know if I'd say it's beneath me, I'll decide that after I have another couple episodes under my belt.

Edited: wrong thread, sorry.
