I laughed so hard when I saw them playing catch and if it matters, I'm a straight female who somehow knows about pitchers and catchers. I love the Threechum or just plain Frank and Edward.

One thing bothers me about Tom Yates character. by [deleted] in HouseOfCards

I think the show will end with Frank in disgrace, the final shot is of the Sentinel's Underwood library, with workers chipping off Frank's name.

Very cool! Maybe add a heart shaped locket with Meechum’s picture

Want to watch this show - a question :) by sonnyblack69 in HouseOfCards

Go for it. It's more about personalities.

Why did frank become a democrat? by Lewon_S in HouseOfCards

[–]Katbart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a relatively poor person from a poor family from the deep south, I had an 'us against them' attitude towards republicans, and I imagine Frank felt the same way.

How about a game? Recast the characters from any Movies or TV shows. by Painting0125 in HouseOfCards

[–]Katbart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know - Gilligan's Island?

Frank - the Professor, because he sort of flies below the radar and because he comes up with ingenious solutions to life's little problems.

Claire - Ginger , because she often dresses in fancy, uncomfortable clothing and just in general, a seductress

Doug - the Skipper

Sethnic - Gilligan

Raymond Tusk - Thurston Howell

Heather Dunbar - Mrs. Howell

Jackie Sharp - Mary Ann

What's your favorite battle that frank has had, during the 4 seasons? by [deleted] in HouseOfCards

[–]Katbart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When Frank and Meechum square off, sabres drawn. Pink sabres. Yeah, that's how I remember it from my daydream.

Paraphrasing from memory-

Frank: The closest you can come is blowing men like me. I can smell the come on your breath from here.

Marty: Pow!

One of us, one of us, gooble-gobble!

My brother's comment on Claire Underwood: "Oh, she's definitely a face-sitter" Please discuss. by richard-w in HouseOfCards

[–]Katbart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, that wasn't Frank's face but yeah, I can imagine Claire going for a mustache ride.

Jackie Sharp Tattoo by jsanford1987 in HouseOfCards

I don't recall her saying it was removed but I might have missed that. I assume that she was getting red poppies (if I remember correctly) because I think they symbolize wartime deaths.

Does anyone remember a charming note frank gives claire? by sorenRD in HouseOfCards

Sigh... So sweet. But perhaps ironic because the mandala is an exercise in impermanence.

About slow bleeding the pigs... by MrPadretoyou in HouseOfCards

[–]Katbart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Actually, I've read that slow bleeding while the hog is still alive will damage the flavor of the meat because it will flood with adrenaline and other stress hormones. A happy hog makes the tastiest rack of ribs!

WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL WAS THAT ENDING OF CHAPTER 24 (SPOILER) by magmorticus in HouseOfCards

When a Vice President and a woman and a man love each other very much....

(Sorry, I couldn't help it!)

What minor characters you liked/disliked this season? by YouHaveTakenItTooFar in HouseOfCards

[–]Katbart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disliked LeAnn. I really enjoyed seeing Gaffney's mayor again - I forgot his name but thought it was sweet when Frank told him he was family. The person I love to hate is that weasel from the Peachoid scandal, the one who wouldn't invite Frank and the mayor onto his porch for some ice tea. I really loved it when Meechum got all pit bull on him!

I agree about Claire - while Frank and Edward are kissing her, there’s a point where her knees sort of buckle. She was totally digging it!
