Same for me! I was so disappointed that there weren't any Gargoyles in it.

Do you mean the one with Puck and Lexington in the future? It's been so long since I've seen the show that I can no longer know which one you mean.

That point about the timing of the VPE results was a great catch; I bet that was part of it.

Link?

Goblins choose to work in areas they most value (specifically, banking and smithing). That said, goblin-human relations are fraught with disagreements and misunderstandings, especially in regard to item ownership and wand-wielding, so the second class argument is certainly valid.

"Enslave" is a bit of a misnomer, as house-elves enjoy the work they do and are (for the most part) insulted if you try to free them:

Did you see that guy in the Rick Santorum Supreme Court movie article? He would have written it something like this:

Needs more wacky punctuation use.

Those reports say nothing at all about birth control. The first is a statistical survey that found that more people are putting marriage as a later goal in life (and in many cases, after children), and the second link is just a summary of that report.
The third and fourth links are similar information about the…

John Travolta condemns Rich Admans.

"In Putin's Russia, food that eats you dies of polonium poisoning."

Maybe they were some type of flint? He could be Earthbending them together to make sparks.

Oh my goodness that sounds amazing. Now I'm REALLY disappointed.

I always get in too late to see the crazy comments, and now I've missed a valuable community bonding experience!
