Was it ever anything else? I can’t think of anything more “basic” than the whole “Stop liking what I don’t like” thing.

Yeah, slicing it isn’t much work, but it does mean dirtying a knife. The tray kind solves that problem.

They sell the dough in little trays now, with perfectly-portioned perforated lumps of dough. No need to even slice; you just break one off and put in the toaster oven. It’s great.

Well, yeah. Fake history has wizards.

Because it’s meant as more of a scoring mechanism than a limit. You do lose if you go over 10 minutes in a stage, but that really shouldn’t happen unless you’re idling anyway. It’s more so you can try to beat your best time.

Actually just went through this with my dog — she is apparently allergic to something. Could be something in the food, could be grass. My vet just gave me an allergy med to give to the dog.

Do not taunt happy fun cartridge.

Boy, you got super-judgy there, Patrick.

Something something hyper-realistic blood

Oh fuck off.

Yeah, in the case of a massive flood like this one, I’m going to go ahead and say every goddamn thing in the store is unsellable. Whether the insurance company agrees or not, it would be a gross and grotesque breach of civic responsibility for the store not to take the loss, regardless of whether the goods are…

If the choices are (a) break into my house, or (b) starve, then yeah, I’d say go ahead and break right in.

Did you notice the door was open in that scene? She was counting on Littlefinger listening.

To rebuild his power base, with the same goal he has always had. To be the power behind the Iron Throne.

A “shoot” is something that is real, as opposed to a “work” which is a scripted part of the narrative. A “worked shoot” is when they want something scripted to look as it if was real, and often involves copious amounts of fourth-wall breaking.

Does anyone know exactly what his endgame was in Winterfell, other than “sow chaos?”

Apparently, subtlety is lost on the very people that think they grasp it most, considering all the freaking hints they dropped during that Sansa/Arya scene from last week that Arya, at least, was already scheming against Littlefinger.

If it was, the show drastically overplayed that rivalry last week, as it is difficult to go from Arya threatening to murder Sansa a week ago to now working alongside her without hesitation.

“Mayweather is always hanging out with famous athletes and the Biebers of the world, so I’m of the impression that a lot of people view him aspirationally.”

I think you misspelled “best”.
