Stuff happened! Good was good, evil was evil, fun was had.

Why doesn't Ron have a semi-regular column?

Obviously the koalas. I mean, making sure we always have koalas around is vitally important!

Because it's a promotional item touting things Mexico wants to export to the US and maybe Canada.

You've obviously never tasted that Abuelita, dude. It's amazing.

So the FSM tells us!

Generality (I know, this isn't true of your besties in Osaka, people) Japanese women basically have to do everything at home: run the house, take care of the kids, and the husband provides the income but no childcare and often acts like another kid. Working mothers are strongly discouraged; even married women who work…

It's certainly going to free up more valuable time I can spend on the internet, or petting the kitties or something.

Maybe they're easier to make the ammo for. Without electricity, refining and metal-working are also going to take a giant step backwards, and all the fancy ammo and fancy guns probably got used up in the initial chaos.

Spirograph!

Bell did say it couldn't be stopped, and that he'd planned to be the last person and the human race would die out, plus he was dying anyway. He wouldn't have minded, I guess, if Walter shot him, probably would have gotten in one last bwa-ha-ha at making Walter commit murder. He hadn't realized how far this Walter had…

This Walter agonized over it, and made it right.

Also showing how Walter has grown from the guy who stayed in the lab and never went out, to the man who'll go to the warehouse and investigate, and take the decisive, drastic action. It's a big change in this version of Walter.

I knew the Sea Monkeys were really brine shrimp, but I liked them anyway. With their crazy upside-down swimming, their periodic die-offs where they'd eat the corpses, etc.

That is sooo cute. Thor's just all happy with the magic picture box, and Tony and Cap fighting over the remote is great.

Didn't they have to use kids for the Cortexiphan trials b/c it didn't work on adults? Bell said he was pumping himself full of it to slow down the cancer — that might have been enough to completely trip him over to super-evil. This version of Bell seems to have always been a sociopath, though.

Oooh, I was afraid of that too. I was going to be mad if they did. But since they thought this might be the last episode, they had to tie that up.

I loved it. Even with the lemon cake setup, I wasn't expecting Walter to actually shoot Olivia.

The food probably is boring — bland pills.

I don't think Gen X is old enough to remember this. Other than that, spot on.
