I’m not allergic to seafood, but I got so tired of people telling me to try their fish because it’s not fishy or I’ll love it the way they cook it. So I just tell everyone I’m allergic. I used to work with ESL students and I can say I can’t eat fish in 6 foreign languages now. It’s just strange how protective people are of seafood.

Okay, major suspension of disbelief for this episode. All the talk about whether Kevin could make it from Vancouver to SeaTac, I’m going to quietly point out that the Canadian border has been closed for almost a year.

I had fertility issues and I had IUIs. I’m not at all insulted with the turkey baster jokes. It’s almost like it’s the first time people have heard it. I think my husband and I actually joked about turkey basters at the time because he was deployed so much. Who GAF? And I really don’t like Dorinda or Tinsley. I just can’t believe that’s the line Andy draws. You get booted for a turkey baster joke but not for something like faking cancer.

I’m late to the party, but really enjoying this show. It’s a walk down memory lane. My college boyfriend had Camille’s pink tile with the red strip around the bathtub in his house on Barrington. And the cafeteria at Ace studios? Reminds me of visiting my grandparents at the Motion Picture Home. It looks so similar to their lunchroom, right down to the single carnation and framed pictures of the famous people on the wall. It makes me a little teary to think of my grandpa in his prime working at this time in Hollywood history.

I really like LeAnn, but she’s always been a choker every time she’s been on the show.

Um, no. If someone called my Asian half of the family Orientals in 1985 it would not have gone over well.

There is a spot on Amazon for special delivery instructions. I checked the box for packages to be left at my front door instead of in my driveway when they started to get lazy. That dog owner would have been the first person to sue if his package was lost or stolen.

Apparently, it really is pronounced Keev. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nj.com/entertainment/2019/11/so-long-kiev-hello-keev-impeachment-hearings-teach-americans-actual-pronunciation-of-ukrainian-capital.html%3foutputType=amp And it took me 5 years of living in WA to figure out how to pronounce Sequim and Poulsbo.

Dear Erika's Trainer, Erika does not have perfect form. Your clients are going to permanently damage their backs if you let them erg like that. Love, A USC Alumna and rower who got in on merit.

Perhaps. But the sign, please wait here with a bunch of people holding groceries behind it should’ve been his first clue. He was being an entitled snot and he doesn’t get to speak to me like that. Seriously, look up and take other people into consideration.

I need to take a moment to complain about lining up in stores like Old Navy and Kohls where people all wait in one spot for the next available register. This older, grandparent couple came right up to the register and put their things down on the counter pushing my items further down to make room for them. Did I forget to mention they had a child in a stroller that they pushed right up next to me and then the grandma came around the front and bent over to her grandson and shoved her large bottom into my side. FFS, what is wrong with people? I had to crane the pay pad completely to the left to sign for my purchase. Then we have the people in grocery stores who don't care to notice there is a line waiting for the next available self-check register to open. I was in line with my 6 year old. When the next one opened, we walked toward it. A man cut through the flower section and went right to the register. My exact words, "excuse me sir, we were next, there's a line". He grabbed his beer and toilet paper and said, "chill out, bitch." And, because whatever karmic force in the world you believe in has a sense of humor, he ended up at the register across from me. I lit him up as best I could with my child with me. Total DB. I really wish employees would step in before something happens. How hard is it to direct people to the line?

Does anyone remember the episode when DJ didn’t want to kiss his African American classmate, Geena, in the school play? So they got married? Cool.

I think it's 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica. I went to USC and thought I recognized the background. That would explain all the USC and UCLA co-eds.

I can agree with your thoughts. It was my knee jerk reaction to her telling everyone to go home and hug their dogs, you don't know how much time you have left with them.

I totally get this and agree. I'm still good friends with the girl. My other friend's FB post 19 years later brought the memory back. Several of my friends have lost parents and family members this year. It would sting to read this woman's post about her dog if my mother's death was more recent. It seems rather thoughtless of her. I lost my 15 year old cat in September. It never occurred to me to post about my first Christmas without the little rugrat. Probably (like you said) because the death of my mom gives me a different perspective. Just my personal pet peeve. I can't compare the loss of a pet with the loss of a human family member.
