Well, given she asked Maryam the simple damn question," Is that a foot?" I guess she is entitled to her outrage upon confirmation of her supicions that someone would jazz up a picture of aheart with a foot stomping a flag. Oh, wait. Jeff: Some seriously crazy guy might kill me. I want out. Barbra: some girls divided up a former pod member's leftovers. They are inhumane. I want out. ***** Barbra-- a bunch of women are aggressively harrassing a woman by accusing her of faking pregnancy. Not my monkeys. Barbra: Yaz, the one woman who has been actively helping other inmates in the pod let slip a crude phrase in service of stopping the above mentioned harrassment of a person most likely suffering from mental illness. Yaz is irredeemably depraved. All that "GED" stuff is just evidence of her being uppit-- uh, superior. Barbra was pretty much the Jeff of the women's pod, only they manipulated her for affection rather than commissary. She bought it like a total idiot, and they milked her. She drove me bugfuck. The minute she set foot in the pod, she was trying to sort out the social Darwinism. Tami mostly drove me bugfuck in relation to her teaming up with Barbra.

When Cheyenne said, "Is that one of Glenn's posters?" I started laughing so hard my mom yelled threats down the stairwell.

I started watching the show mid season 3 because I was channel surfing and saw Chloe Sevigny stuck on a roof. I fell in love with Nikki right away, and rewatching it makes it worse. She is just so awful! <3

Goddamn IMDB. Before this site launched, a huge group of regulars would meet up evey week to dish on the TV show board. Just now Patrick's hookup was swooning over Kevin's ears, and I went there to look up a post where I did the same thing, and discovered huge swathes of content had been deleted, including everything I had written. I can only think of two threads on that whole board that contained heated comments, and I know I kept my own comments civil, so my working theory is that the scripwriters poured over our chatter for ideas, and deleted the good stuff just to be safe. Just a theory. Anyway, I laughed for five minutes solid at the ear comment. And they're still damn sexy ears. And then Kevin opens his faux- blond mouth: " You didn't have to dress up for me!" GOD. JUST, GOD.

Heh. In one of the early seasons, Hannah opted to listen to This American Life rather than go on a hike. I loved Dunham's storytelling . She did a reading in that Norah Ephron doc and her delivery was perfectly on point. She would kill it on Selected Shorts. And totally, if she doesn't already have a podcast, she needs to start one.

(Pissy educator attitude warning) Here's what bugs me-- what they " cobbled together" was actually pretty close to " project approach curriculum" -- which is actually an effective, holistic way to approach education in an organic, self-paced way. They could have shown the kind of effort and involvement such a curriculum approach takes-- kids could have created drafted blueprints for the sets( there's your math) researched the kind of animals that would have evolved on a Dune terrain ( science), created scripts and storyboards ( lit) teachers spending hours discussing cross- curriculum application -- shit, a bunch of stuff. Butsince the producers decided to do a charter school storyline withou bothering to research jack shit about curriculum, they took the very solid idea of an art and lit curriculum and made it seem like something any idiot could pull out of their ass with no effort, education, or thought. Which is a slap in the face to teachers, when you think about it. While I'm hear bitching-- ok, so, the Latino love interest is out of the picture and all of a sudden we don't care about the school being inclusive of middle-- lower income Students? Which in that neighborhood seemed to mean Latino kids? Because that was one thing Michelle was PASSIONATE about, right, when she talked about her dream school? Fuck you, Show.

For my part, I keep saying to myself, "I remember hating Amanda Peet, long, long ago. What was my reasoning about that?"Always loved Melanie, but really enjoy having my mind changed about Amanda. And yeah, I would watch the hell out of their show.

Um. Someone who wants to sleep naked, but has overly sensitive nipples that get chafed by shifting bed sheets.I'm guessing.

(reeling with joy.) Shosh. Works. For. A. Cat. Cafe. Ohhh my god.

True enough. I though maybe it was better in private schools.

Mentors! Does nobody understand the importance of mentoring in teacher development? Auugh!

Both.

I wondered that, too. What kind of school is this? St. Fuckups's School of Perpetual Inappropriateness?

DO TELL. :D I don't think Jessa slept with Adam because she had a fight with Hannah, I think she was fighting with Hannah because she was trying to take her mind off of Adam. I actually think that transition played well. Only-- holy shit, what now, you two? I re-watched the ep in Spanish for listening practice-- the voice over actors are actually really good, which is refreshing, as a lot of times the pick the hammiest ham actors to do Spanish language voice-over. Marnie's stand in was particularly funny. one last thought-- "I choose to take that as a compliment." Heh. "Hannah Takes a Backhanded Compliment As a Sincere One" Think that is a PTV shout-out? HEY LENA! S'UP, GURL!

Said aloud by me to TV: "Either move it to the floor or the bed. The couch is ridiculous. You are both too tall." While Hanna is a study in bad teaching-- I don't care how "right" one of my fellow teachers/ significant other/s any combination thereof was, I would fucking strangle them if they picked up a paper and applied red pen to it in my stead. They would have that red pen hanging out of their ear. You just. Don't Holy fuck. Sure, Hanna overreacted, but clearly the boundary issues go both ways. I loved Dunham's "Behind the ep" analysis of this scene. Pretty much confirmed my reaction to it. And I too love the fact that pretty much every sex scene we have seen on this show contains a clusterfuck element to it. Any time you get two people together with such a specific desired result (geddit, teacher pals?), there is going to be a collision of opinions. I think the most sex positive aspect of this film is giving us the message that sex can still be fun even if complications arise and just letting it flow is the best solution. I think my favorite sex moment still is Marnie in season one and her post-coital laughing fit. Sometimes you gotta. (I just wish I was in the room acting as sex coach because seriously, the couch? LOL)

"Duck a la orange"? Just checking in with y'all --Isaac is supposed to be the unrefined one, right?

Fran's still around?

She may have been trying to pronounce Ecuador the pretentious way, but she simply pronounced it the *wrong* way. There is no such thing as a glottal "c" in Spanish. "Ch", maybe, in some dialects, but usually "j" is the only glottal letter.

That is such a Shosh thing to say. :D

In fact, to hell with reciting them, I would bet they'd just bust out their guitars and make the song the vows.

Heh, I agree. He seems to be actually having fun with the show, and is more encouraging to the cheftestants.

Whoever said it up there,I think they are right-- the longer hair really suits his face.I also suspect he's had a short trip to a tanning bed.

"I just love saying it." Also, Blair and her crazy ass Elsa Lancaster look. Daaammn.

OMG I just saw "Seven Little Indians" for the first time ever. I can't believe I have lived this long without having this ep in my experience. SO brilliant. And Cloris Leachmann is so underrated. She killed it in this one.

Good grief, a simple pancacke/ waffle recipe is one of life's easier things. And I'm sure he could have asked the producers for a waffle iron.
