They killed George!? I stopped watching after Season 3, and part of it was because Izzy and George had become so annoying, so I think I support this.

While it's not a disaster to go straight through, I think it's a really good idea to take some time off and get some traditional work experience. Now that I'm in grad school, I definitely notice differences between people who went straight through and those who didn't. The ones who didn't take a break are lovely…

I just hopped over to Spotify to listen to it (it hasn't been up!) and I dig it. I love 80s Genesis, 80s Sting, and I was one of those people who listened to Somebody That I Used to Know five times a day, so it was sort of inevitable.

Happy Birthday! Hugs! Whoever shows up (and it won't be everyone, because that's just how these things work), you will have an awesome time.

Eighties dancing was probably the happiest dancing. This is such a bummer!

I, too, hate that question. Uh, I have some friends, I participate in a lot of events that have involve beer, and I watch sort of a lot of Netflix. Am I supposed to super exaggerate, and over time it becomes clear that everyone does pretty similar things, and never bring it up again? I mean, what?

Oh, snap. I don't know if you're in the states, but at this point I would take out a PLUS loan if I had to and move the hell out. Because yeah, you're not going to be able to focus on grad school, and then you're screwing yourself over!

Wow. That was a twist I was not expecting.

I'm actually counting on evangelical Christians to carry that torch.

I would die if I worked from home. And eat excessive quantities of cookies. I'm just a person who needs a lot of structure, because I get distracted by interesting non-work things approximately every 3 minutes if I'm not in a work-y environment.

Exactly! It's impossible to agree with all of this crap, so why does everything else get to be between you and your God (and I guess your priest, if you're a Catholic that goes to confession)? Swearing, coveting your neighbor, and ladies wearing pants don't seem to be such a concern.

Maybe we could set aside some funds to form the Thought Police! That'll show the sinful hussies.

It's so well done! I was like... I couldn't possibly have missed this, right?

Wait. Did this really happen?

Okay, seriously. A religious organization can't expect all of its employees to subscribe every dogmatic morsel they serve up. They can't even expect that of their congregation, because so very many people use contraception.

Okay! Let's put Rick Santorum back in his box, and only bring him out when absurd conservative hate-spewing is funny again. I'm over it. Good day, sir.

Somehow, I'm reminded of the scene in the beginning of Men In Black, in which an alien inhabits Vincent D'onofrio's body, and becomes a deeply unsettling version of Vincent D'Onofrio. Is there even a small chance that something similar is happening at celebrity events?

I love everything more when I have access to garlic butter sauce. Good call.

Nothing says "Thanks for being 1) Smokin' and 2) In My Bed" like a tray full of food. I'll allow it.

Oooh. That is low. Brain bleach!
