So, apropos of not much, know who else is entitled to feel cocky? This guy. I have a date tomorrow night. THIS IS KIND OF A BIG DEAL. I'm not being sarcastic. Since this is the internet and anonymous and I don't actually know you people, I'm not even going to pretend to be suave about it.

AYE!

"Did anyone miss Robert California this week? Interesting that the first substantial plot movement of the season takes place in an episode where he does not appear."
Read this in the voice of Robert California. Interesting that a criticism of this character would sound natural coming from the character.

Did someone call?

I was in a big brother type program in high school and my six year old "little brother" beat me with that technique. In my defense… no, I'm just a I'm a terrible bowler. But I think he was in some sort of little kid bowling league.

I went to the "hospital" today and received the greatest "prescription" for what was ailing me. I am half asleep and half out of it. I was in so much pain…but now I'm not. This isn't great post, but I don't care because I am feeling so much better. Time for some "cake."

So what do WE get if the comment number reaches 5,000? Or even 10,000? Are we doing this solely to meet the expectations of Commander van der Werff? Because I only work for clearly-designated insignificant motivational rewards.

Almost half of a big number is still plenty.

Annie is ever-so-slightly squinting with one eye from disgust. Pierce is doing the same as he struggles to contain the pure unadulterated joy of being validated.

>Ask horse what its name is_

I'm just going to hang out in the dark corner over here in case anyone needs my services.

If we take the classic definition of irony, that something happens which would not be expected, then the occurrence of CC & HDB's comments weren't ironic, because they are both quoting a pop song and this is AV Club where that sort of behavior is expected.

In that order.

Yeah, I guess the commentariat is pretty well spent on this topic in the previous newswire.
