Folks, the previous note to stick to Jinger and Jeremy and now Felicity was perhaps not clear. The too long discussion of strange names and who has them and how you know them is far too off topic. Several posts have been removed and yet the discussion continues. It belongs in Small Talk now, please continue it there.

Let's all grab some snacks and continue chatting about Josiah and Lauren, please.

That would be best since this topic is for non-show stuff. Posts were indeed moved. Everyone: The game is pushing it but for now is fine, but definitely no spoilers. Any news from camp--who made it, who didn't, who auditioned, all that stuff are spoilers since the show has not aired yet. If it hasn't been shown on the television show it is a spoiler. Small Talk is inherently a spoiler free topic because it's not supposed to be about the show.

I was surprised even though, thinking about it, I shouldn't have been. I may have gasped, and I don't know if the theater did, but there was a definite ripple of shock that went through the room. We saw it with someone who hadn't finished Infinity War. She turned to us and was all, "What was that? What happened?" We just told her she has to finish Infinity War. She loved the movie, though. She was laughing so much during the movie it really heightened my enjoyment of it. I like the more low-key nature of the Ant-Man movies and I like all the characters. It was delightful way to spend an afternoon which is all I ask of movies.

Let's return to Josiah and Lauren, please.

Let's pull back to Jeremy and Jinger, please.

In the first picture of the cake, I noticed in the background the dirty boot propped up by someone sitting on the couch. Then, in the same picture, I saw the dirty boot in the foreground hanging off the counter near the cake. Ew.

There will not be a poll to name a new topic for some weeks to allow time to get to know the couple. Perhpas even after the new season starts in case they show stuff. This avoids the complaint when a new quirk appears to change the title again. You may discuss the couple here for now. Also, as it has already been mentioned after other births, the titles of topics will not change upon the arrival of offspring. Even though this is announced in topic polls, inevitably it arises.

As much as I enjoyed this episode, it still had one of my personal pet peeves. Rats don't make that much noise. And then they had them all stuffed in way too small cages. We had two pet rats and they rarely made that squeaking sound. Rats are always portrayed badly and while it wasn't terrible this time, the squeaking is a peeve of mine. But they were so cute.

Folks, a reminder: this is neither a gossip nor fact based journalism nor a fan site. There is no requirement to believe everything posted here. If you don't think it's true that's fine, but making a narrative about why someone said it etc is just going to end badly. Someone can say, "The moon really is made of cheese. I've got the inside info from a scientist at NASA." There is no need to have pages of discussion about why a poster would post that. A simple, "I still think the moon is made of rock," states your opinion without making it about the poster. Or ignore it. Roll your eyes, shake your head, and move on.

It's because this is the season/show that NEVER ENDS!!!!

Please note the title has changed to reflect the adaptation to the new name of the series.

Change of season, change of title, change of topic. This is the Season 2 for the now name Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure.

Folks this is not the Jinger and Jeremy topic. Please swing back to that and away from the merits animal husbandry or hunting.

I once made deviled eggs with avocado instead of mayo. Lime juice and parsely (both my husband and daughter can't stand cilantro) and maybe something else I think? It was pretty good, but discolored quickly so it's not something I would do for company again. Not knowing how it would turn out, I also made a batch of regular deviled eggs. Now I want egg salad.

The grocery store and related bagging is better discussed in Small Talk, please. Thank you!

Folks there were quite a few posts that were skirting the no politics rule for PTV. It's squishy because of how it's brought up in DCC. And since the conversation was respectful the posts remaine. However, right now, in training camp, we have not seen any questions yet. So let's drop the subject now in order to avoid wandering too far, please and thank you.

That was my first thought when he was explaining his plan to Watson. And for me, for Sherlock to even consider that plan and how it made him like Oscar, I felt like it really showed how terribly Michael had affected him. I guess he rationalized it that Oscar was trying to bring Sherlock down from his high horse but Sherlock was trying to to stop Michael from killing for Sherlock's attention/the thrill of the chase. I guess it's not the worst reason, but it still felt icky to me.

Just moved a bunch of posts about clothing/shoes recommendations to the Prayer Closet since it was getting a bit too much off topic. Now back to trying to understand why the Duggars do what they do.

This Season 13 Anticipation topic. It does not include any references to the social media stuff that is coming out about training camp. That is considered spoilers here. Please be aware of where (ie what topic) you are posting in. Any reference to filming or other training camp stuff goes in the Training Camp and Social Media topic.

Drax can be so still, he's invisible.

Please focus on the show and not the posters. PTV’s golden rule Be Civil applies only to your fellow members. It does not apply to the show, the characters, the cast, etc. Folks are free to say whatever they like - and however they'd like to say it - about anybody that is related to the show as long as it does not violate site rules, i.e. is racist or homophobic etc. Dissecting posts in the Live Chat topic is not only off topic it's uncivil. Bring it back to the show, please.

Let's move back to Ben and Jessa. We know their views on abortion, but this topic cannot become a discussion about abortion. It's so very easy to take the tweet and use it as a springboard to expound about the politics of it. A little off topic straying is ok. Taking the off topic discussion into charged political discussion is not.

Folks, mentions of cuts at finals are considered spoilers here. If it's easier, disucssion can be brought over to Finals, Training Camp and Social Media. Please be aware of the topic when posting.

The list would be considered to contain spoilers since the show has not aired yet. It's why such discussion should not take place here. There technically is no Current Squad as it's in transition. This topic is to discuss the 2017-18 squad. All discussion of auditions/vet cuts goes into the Finals and Social Media topic. The list of those entering training camp is a list only--no discussion other than to clarify the list itself. We tried to make topics comprehensive as possible but also make it so that those who wait until the show starts know where it's safe to read. It's awkward, yes, but best we can do while in limbo as it were. Please feel free to PM with questions or if I'm being unclear etc. And this Note is just clarification so everyone sees.
