In a Romanian accent this time.

I'm no prude either (in fact, I'm kind of a ho), but I was concerned about having cunnilingus or fingerbanging an hour earlier this season, while "the kids are still awake."

It's all about the brainding, baby…

Meh, no real worries.
;-)

I guess I'm gonna have to point this out everywhere today.

…but was actually just me being an asshole, sometimes consciously, other times not.

So, Kayla, Annalise Keating vs. Patty Hewes?

"Excedrin for Racial Tension Headaches."

That's what years in music school with do to you…

Libby later states that there’s something in the air, and we can only pray that it’s the Civil Rights Movement.

Funny, I didn't hear any Enigma. What I did hear (several times in the episode) was Thomas Tallis's Spem in Alium, a motet for 40 voices, on a text from the Old Testament story of Judith, the Jewish woman who saved her people by decapitating Holofernes.

"Context is everything."

See? Cringe.

See, this is where I want to get to the real story, but the marriage of Bill and Libby is not, naturally, the center of most of what gets published about Masters, it's all about his relationship with Johnson. I can't think that Libby gets a fair shake in a story to which Virginia is central, but I'm really curious. …

You're not wrong, but that was in the fourteenth century, before the standardization of English spelling by a few centuries.
;-D
If memory serves, the pinnacle of the first push of English standardization was around 1611, with the King James Bible.

I generally don't correct anyone, I just cringe, like I said.

There's a reason that gay men have a lower incidence rate of prostate cancer. It can't be all bad.
;-)

I don't see it as passive-aggressive racism, though; I see it as willful ignorance more appropriate to classism, I'm even more annoyed when President Bush says "nucular" instead of "nuclear," given the cost of his Ivy League "education." My father's family was black southern farmers, and NEVER did I hear "ax"…

For what it's worth, as a black child of an English teacher, I cringe every time someone says "ax" instead of "ask."

This was, quite simply, one of those episodes of True Blood where I spent the entire time wondering what the hell the writers are doing.
