My friend and I use this image as a shorthand macro. I've taken to doing it on Facebook and some of my other online boards, but usually accompanied by the phrase.

Title of your sex tape!

It does, and I think that's how they originally pictured him, but "Born Dead" somehow managed to 180 my way of looking at Vernon, and I consider it a testament to the writing staff that they managed to do that to Vernon without actually nullifying everything that came before.

The Paul as Vernon scene reminded me of the Fauxdy scene from last season's Homeland.

Nothing ever suggested that Vernon was anything more than a stand-up, if somewhat douchey, guy. I feel like "Born Dead" gave us a fairly valid justification for his frat-bro exuberance. And considering he was pissed off at Jimmy for trying to come onto Becca, I can only imagine he'd also feel that Lindsay is off

I'm suddenly thinking about the script Trina's then-boyfriend was trying to pitch Aaron Echolls in that episode of Veronica Mars. Junkie hitman!

And my boy Eddie's in with piccolo girl!

If you're never going to watch the back end of S2, you're missing out on the glory of the cliffhanger in the penultimate episode, as well as its resolution. That alone justified slogging through a lot of the season, and that nearly redeemed Goffman in my eyes.

I was confused at the whole "Your father didn't want you involved in this world." Wasn't he already a werewolf for some time? Kinda makes me feel like he's part of it, like it or not.

Because at least she knows what is a school.

Poor word choice. "Unwitting" is more what I was looking for.

The end of the penultimate episode and the beginning of the finale were a great, temporary about-face, and the finale itself at least managed a brief course correction too late to save Goffman from staying on.

I actually think it's a misdirect, and the female is Pandora.

So you're saying she's going to give birth to the Human Popsicle?

It's fantastic, but Parks managed this one better.

I loved her delivery of both "I'm gonna play the hell out of some backgammon" advanced "I hated him more than any cop I've ever known. …whoa. I just realized I'm never gonna be able to say that to his face. I mean, I can say it to his wife at the funeral, but it won't be the same."

I love the fact that The Vulture's intro is telegraphed so that people know who is coming (either because they're the kinds who rewatch obsessively or just rewind a few times to witness the glory), from the casual pose in the presumably patent whaleskin shoes to the apple thrown at the wall in the douchiest manner

Not only is he still on the show, he gets to say lines like, "No, I don't have my own pigeon pants" and "let's blow some tiny minds."
