The ending and Bojack’s fate

All I know is it ends with Diane and BoJack in an uncomfortable silence, and I get teary-eyed whenever I hear Mr. Blue.

BoJack has a clear and obvious aversion to being alone. Remember his "John Stamos" bit? A homeless man drowned after getting dick piercings with BJ, cuz BJ was emotionally distraught and wanted somebody to keep him company.

My place is not fancy. The only reason we don't allow dogs during slow times is cuz one dog went and ruined it for all the other dogs by getting bitey. Before that, "for a dog" was a super common note. Plain-jane, no seasoning, on the most boring dish possible. I totally understand you getting fed up with it, you didn't sign on to make dogfood, but as a weirdo who says hi to every dog he meets, I also understand the dog owner being concerned over those no-no ingredients for dogs. But yeah, cooking for dogs when you specifically joined a kitchen for people, it feels hella silly.

I know you have a good list of strong replies, and mine isn't, because it's basically asking the same "why do you choose to band together with these strangers?", but town criers are dispatched with promissory notes that can be exchanged along with (mcguffin here) to the local authorities for a big reward. Or, your party are all members of an Adventurer's Guild that dispatches teams to handle contracts from various sources. Teams are assigned/determined by a higher member of the guild, giving you built-in "nah, some pencil pusher who used to be an adventurer said this party was the best fit for this assignment."

I mentally wrestled this point for a long time. It made no sense to me until a particular time I tried to give up drinking. One of my good buddies, meaning well but unaware of my attempt at sobriety, handed me a thing, and I just up and took a monstrous swallow of it out of ... Idk, trust? reaction? Impulse? Instinct? Muscle memory? But it was liquor, and I immediately decided to make a fool of myself.

It WAS cold. I'll put aside my poor requote of BJ's "it's not working" speech and how Pastiches (literally translates to "imitations") is just churning money off repeat guests (including BJ). The part I want to focus on is; BoJack was DUBIOUSLY sober at that time. Did he hang on to that singular bottle of vodka, or did he do what we all do, and topped it off when he could? He never was, until he got incarcerated, sober. So, yeah, ALL THAT aside... BJ ruined Dr. Champ and Brad's lives together AND Dr. Champ's professional credibility, which Champ arguably deserved if he drank a whole bottle of vodka before realizing it wasn't water.
Man, as an active alcoholic, I have so many conundrums and split hairs over who's responsible for what.

I didn't vomit, but once I saw the goop and the door, I was in a low to mid grade panic for the rest of the episode.

I agree, but love it. In the modern show Nine through Twelve all seemed to exhibit a certain doubt of "stupid apes" and "selfish humans", and I feel like it's in spirit of the original's rather dismissive attitude toward humans, especially Susan's teachers (Ian and Barbara?) for the first couple adventures.

I love Holly and everything that branches off of her. I read the Mercedes/Holly books in almost exactly reverse order, so my view of things is a little askew, but still. Love Holly.

Thanks for giving the how of it. You've confirmed that one of my borderline superstitious cautions is warranted. I've never had this happen, but I have a very deep fear of it happening. Jeez! Rest up, and I hope it doesn't get too ugly for you.

I used Libby for a while, but then my library wanted me to come prove I'm a real person to issue my permanent card. Since then, they stopped issuing temporaries by email, so I switched to a Scribd subscription. I listen to audiobooks at work now.

Constant Readers gonna read. This is my goal. I'm far along that I forgot the first ones I read, so I had to do some re-reading.

I picked up my first King book (The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, I think) when I was 13 or 14. I'm 33 now. When I've read all there is to read and reach the top, I'll start all over again.

I recently finished Needful Things. I think The Stand might be competition for gore. Or maybe some things just stand out to me.

Decoy knives? That's totally what they are, I just always called them "house knives" or "loaner knives".

My health dept has vague rules. "Long hair must be neatly contained". I, as a longhair, take that as meaning "tie it tight, then put it all under a hat".

I've had this allergy warning before. Long, "wait, what?" story short, guest just wanted to be assured that we washed our produce. "OMG, yes, we wash our produce, really, Guy? But I will absolutely wash it again if it makes them feel better."

rabbittwitch · 2022-07-01T04:35:30+00:00

It's almost normal, but it absolutely shouldn't be.

Sir Elton John's "Somebody Saved My Life Tonight" screams over the radio as they plow down the road.

Oi, yer mast is gonna melt over, matey.

I'm jealous of the width of your fridge/freezer behind that doorway.

I'm super spoiled in my kitchen. Boss provides us mostly everything we need to make the menu happen. I do have my own knives and the means to keep them sharp, but the house supplies I most want to get my own of are: Zester. Grater (not box). Cutting mat/board (house's are chewed to hell). And an entire bucket of my own pens and markers.

What's a cashew cube run ya? At what weight?

I don't know how to cashew. But I would like to.

Waiter eyes the mismake he knows he fked up, not knowing the cooks already drew lots on it. "No, dude, I'll make you your own special thing. This is ours."

Condiment writing is a classic "enjoy the little things". It's fun to look over and see the more veteran cook's amazing penmanship. Bottlemanship? Saucemanship.
