Shit. I didn't see your point, but then you started rhyming. Now I have to rethink my entire worldview, maybe get one that rhymes.

PLAY-dil-DOH.

The worst part of the lobster mac and cheese is that four ramekins serve "4 - 8."

I think I may be able to settle this scone/biscuit issue. Are scones made with buttermilk? Because a proper American biscuit is made with buttermilk.

He uses "logged on innocently" to mean that he wasn't expecting to read about himself on his homepage, the Guardian. I use it to mean that I wasn't looking for porn.

I don't know what I was expecting, music-wise, but it sure wasn't the Pennsylvania Polka. I am so glad I had my speakers on.

That was damn romantic. Approved.

The woman on the internet version of the Underpants Gnomes' profit model:

Oh, they understood consent. They understood it so well that they actively sought out situations where consent wasn't given. That was the whole point. It isn't a misunderstanding of consent; it is getting off on taking what you want without consent.

My first love of these videos, of course, is Maru. A close, close second is Maru's house.

There is so much Terrible White Guy packed into that McConaughey statement. Just because your in-power group has been okay with something terrible for 85 years doesn't mean that the out-of-power group hasn't been yelling about it the entire time.

It's a

Once the show has passed a point in the book, is it still a spoiler? If it is, then here be spoilers.

If any depiction of rape bothers you, the books might not be for you. But the rapes aren't presented as smut. They aren't treated like sex, they're treated like violation. Where there is rape, it is part of the plot, but not just used as a device. Often they inform character development. The author doesn't ask you to

They should put a warning sticker on every copy of Dragonfly: "Look, you need to read this to keep reading the series, but at many points during this book you will hate the book and possibly yourself for reading the book. Please keep going. I promise, it gets better."

But... but... but, Starz, you can't just give this to me for two months and then take it away for six months. That's no way to treat a person.

We should replace the weekly recap with a book club.

The way he looks at the camera during this is so very right. Even in this, he really exudes Jamie to me. Confident and in control, but heart-achingly warm. Be still my heart. And also my loins.

Pamela as a child wanted to be a horse and married a fabled jockey.
