Because of the prophecy that Oedipus will kill his father and marry his mother, his father, the King of Thebes, tries to have him killed as a child, but he survives. Raised by the King and Queen of Corinth, Oedipus learns the prophecy from the oracle at Delphi, and (not knowing he is adopted), runs away to Thebes to…

I was really hoping that Fitz would have conjured up a prosciutto and buffalo mozzarella with a hint of homemade pesto aioli sandwich.

Repression monster Simmons should be called Jemmacide.

- “You need therapy.” Truer words were never said. Why the hell S.H.I.E.L.D. never hired a therapist is mind-boggling.

I’m glad this & The 100 both aced the same plot prompt this week.

“Good to see Deke is still basically an overgrown man-child, who has matured in no discernible way during his time on earth.”

“This finale is the Dexter of How I Met Your Mother’s own Battlestar Galactica.”

FWIW, I think you & I might be about the same age, or close to it. I had the Steve Austin action figure, with the bionic eye you could look through & the bionic arm you could make lift an engine block. I joined the AV Club in 2008—my moniker a reference to asking what the hell “firsties” comments were about. (I got my…

I’m an only child so I don’t know, but may I assume that it is accurate that even when you’re being made king you can count on your big sister to tell everyone in the room how your balls don’t work?
