At the very least, she's exactly what Frank deserves.

Was I the only one who immediately knew Gus would beat the shit of Jimmy and savored it when it came?

The gay bar in Modesto was actually The White Horse Inn in Oakland, my former stomping grounds. I'm equally proud that it made into the very first Doris episode. Lauren Weedman was magnificent.

And with that, you win the internet today.

Uh, I was talking about inner penile beauty. Veins and crookedness, what are you, shallow?

I've found a penis's self-confidence and sense of humor go a long way in enhancing its attractiveness. It should also be well-read and up on current politics.

And, for the record, penises can be pretty. It just depends on one's perspective.

That was glorious.

Alright, alright I'll watch this next season, you sons of bitches. Nothing but love for Viola, but the rest is so uneven I can't not notice it and still…fuck, whatever, I'll still watch. Goddammit.

Richie's words weren't a slight to Patrick, they were a slight to Patrick's unsubtle shade against Brady. The sarcasm and "good-natured" needling Patrick was doing on the subject deserved to be shut down firmly- and they were.

The detail about the tryst would have been the nuke. But what about all that napalm?

My jaw is sore from the near-lethal levels of cringe. Patrick should have been tackled.

Patrick: Passive-Aggressive Sad Drunk Bitch Mode: Activate!
Agustin: He loves Eddie and so I must at least like him now it seems. I'm OK with that.
Doris: Piggybacking off Eddie's 'jerk off to feline leukemia' to land 'pussy cancer' mere seconds later…respect.
Dom: Seems eons happier without Lynn. There, I said it.
K…

True, but his delivery was generally so afterschool special I doubt he have been able to handle any more emotional range than was already written for him.

I want him to meet someone who can act. Sass is optional.

"ARE WE WORRIERS OR ARE WE SNITCHES?"

Maybe. But she's been a powerful figure in her own right for many years; she could have easily adopted a more critical approach to interviewing if she had wanted to. But the schmoozefests continue on unabated.

Annie Proulx wrote it; she's a Pulitzer Prize winner. Actually, the film is an expansion of her short story- one of the very few film adaptations I've seen that's equally well-composed and even richer than the source material. I highly recommend it.

Fan fiction in general is an argument against democracy. They made some appalling fan fiction out of Brokeback Mountain and that was spectacularly well-written. This was borne of Twilight. Nothing but sorrow could come from this.

Good or bad, I look forward to the day when I don't have to hear new anchors talk about 'kink' with all the grace of guidance counselors trying not to get fired.
