"Or Twizzlers. That's the thing about boxes."

Did anyone else find it odd that the opening scene featured a guy LIT'RALLY pulling blades out of his body? For a show that airs at 8/7c, it was weirdly graphic. However, I did appreciate the scene for prompting me to stop pigging out on ice cream.

I'm not disagreeing with the lack of realism here, but characters' salaries and cash flow are usually things I ignore until they're specifically brought up by the show for comedic effect (such as with E720, or when Ben moved in with April and Andy).

Since when did Leslie have trouble holding a job? Leslie's been in the Parks Department for the entirety of the series, and she had already been working their for years prior to the pilot episode.

I'm sorry, Leslie, but I'd probably vote to reelect Dexhart. What good is living in Pawnee if you can't periodically experience the joy that comes along with his sex scandals?

The look of horror on Bert's face when he was anticipating being told hot dogs are made out of dogs was priceless. That kid has got his facial expressions on lockdown.

"Felicity? They WILL card him at the bar."

I know what they are. That's what makes them so great!

I need you to make twelve for my entire family.

What if A.S.S. are Ron's actual initials, and Ron Ulysses Swanson was a pseudonym all along?

It has more to do with The Voice than anything, honestly.

She's "blossoming" before our very eyes.

Good LARRY jokes, you mean. Way to Jerry your comment, Larry.

Imagining that, somewhere out there, lawyers with the last names Babip and Vorp exist in real life helps me sleep at night.

I maintain that, if Bing adopted "Could it BE any faster?!" as its slogan, I would use it - begrudgingly - for all of my subsequent online searching needs. Until then, I shall remain a Google person.

I just Googled "H.I.V.E." since I am a relatively uninitiated DC Comics-adaptations fan, and the first thing that popped up was some kind of cooperative effort between my university and local businesses that aims to get students jobs post-grad. What I'm saying here is, somebody in Lincoln, NE apparently wanted Andy…

Her last attempt at saying it sold the bit for me.

Re: costumes. I am going as Hungover Ann Perkins. I still have not decided on my prop; it's a toss-up between a bottle of Kahlua with a Snake Juice logo on it or a sled.
