Step One: Failed *falls over laughing*

It's probably reports of the cry and that reminding them of Laurel. Good enough to invite a stranger to join their club house.

I don't get that either. I mean if they want a team member like that, they can recruit the Vigilante. He's local, they'd save on gas.

Which makes him perfect for the position, really. That should be his platform for the next election. Managed to survive the term.

What about Tinacity? It sounds like tenacity.

Sara stealing another girl's boyfriend is from a tie in comic. I don't remember the running away part, but it could also be in there. I do vaguely remember shoplifting when Laurel tried to persuade Lance to give Thea a break in S1.

I think @LeighAn meant two one time hook-ups, which were Laurel and Isabel. She listed the other women he was involved with, but those were relationships.

I wouldn't have even needed Oliver firmly in Thea's corner. It would have been great if he had simply let her deal with Susan while he dealt with other things and people - the newbies, Prometheus, Chase, the Vigilante... My preferred scenario is Oliver putting the Susan issue in Thea's hands and having faith that she can handle it.

I just finished The Force Awakens and I think I may have enjoyed it more than the original trilogy. It's just so touching and adorable. Seriously, those are my main two take backs. Rey and Finn are just the cutest two beings in the galaxy. I liked Poe as well, although his role here is actually much smaller than the press coverage and social media has lead me to believe. Too bad Han and Leia didn't have a girl. Leia's family produces seriuosly defective males.

So glad This is Us is back. Of all things, the beginning reminded me of last year's Arrow mid-season premiere. Not really a parallel I expected to see, but there we are. :) Oh, and Kevin made me laugh with his perfect Kevin-ism. An artnership. Heee.

I think I read recently that it wasn't Barry telling her on purpose, but rather that she heard him talking in his sleep. In turn she kept it from him until he was ready to tell her down the line. I hope I'm not confusing them with another pair in which one person had a secret identity.

All he said was that he'd show up with it the first day of working on S6, no reason they can't shave him in make up. I will say that I'm both dreading and gleefully looking forward to how he's going to look this hiatus if he actually tries to grow it. It would surpass the 2015 hiatus pornstache.

So, I've been reading this book for the past two days and something's been feeling odd. I realized it was because it felt like fan fic and I was bored. Which in turn made me feel like a snob and a hypocrite. But I think I figured out what the problem was - the storytelling is a complete straight line - boy meets girl, they like each other, they start dating, they have sex, they move in together and get engaged (really fast I might add). This thing works in fan fic because you've gotten attached to the characters previously. I formed no attachment to these characters throughout the book and I think there are maybe three chapters left. Chances of it happening in the remaining few chapters are nil. I mean, they're basically decent people and she's pretty and he's pretty, but big whoop. At least I can let it rest now because I've figured out what's been bugging me, so yay. :)

I'm completely open to her, but I'm not ready for such proclamations. After all MM is pretty cute on social media, yet having to watch her act is a form of torture.

What leads you to believe she's been back for a while now? True, although I'd be kind of disappointed for EBR's sake because she's been relatively vocal about working with more women and this would be a situation in which Felicity is working with three actual women, yet EBR wouldn't get to work with the actresses. Like Lance doesn't have enough problems.

I actually thought the opposite because EBR was likely in Peru while these three were reported to have been filming. Did I mix up the dates?

Is that deleted scene from the pilot anywhere around? I'd really like to check it out.

Pointless Lot of Tomfoolery

I can't say it comes as a surprise. How about a flashback to Havenrock the day it was hit?

I finally realized what's my main issue with Oliver's thing with Susan. It's not his past relationship with Felicity and it's not that he's dumb. I've seen him been dumb for years now and around women in the first two seasons he was dumb often. Yet I felt that every badly advised hook up or relationship actually made some sort of sense for his character and motivation, I could see what propelled Oliver to seek out the specific woman in question even as I bemoaned him being stupid. With Susan, I've got nothing. I get that from a storytelling standpoint they want something in this arena for their lead and that they want conflict what with her being a journalist and a potential threat to both sides of him. But when I think about why Oliver wants it I come out blank. I think they tried to imply that he's looking for a friend (maybe?), but the rest of the narrative doesn't support that he'd need to go looking for one outside his circle. Maybe the thing would have made more sense if they isolated him from the others.

Is it with Candace Cameron-Bure? Because I will not be watching her in anything for a long while. I suffered through her honestly horrid movie, Journey Back to Christmas a few months back and she played a time-travelling nurse from the 1940s who accidentally ended up in present day. Freak snow storm or something. I suppose she tried to play the character as someone form another time. Instead she played it like the woman came from another planet and did not manage to figure out how humans functioned.

Unless he has an inside source and it's not a location shoot, is it actually possible to tell which show people are filming given that the sets are supposed to be near by and also shared? Which is not to say he doesn't have an inside source.

This put a smile on my face. One, 100% truth. Two, peace and quiet and abysmal thoughts. Heeee. Three, all that's missing is a sad trombone at the end.

I actually found this Instagram post. Kudos on the funny.
