I'm attempting to reply on my iPad. We'll see how this works out.
My little one absolutely adores slushies (I find them revolting, btw), so much so that when we were down in MD over Christmas break he had me make one that was a mix of Cherry Coke and root beer or something terrifying like that!
You are honestly missing very little by skipping S6, although Jack is even hotter than usual that season. But then Rena Sofer shows up and makes even Kiefer's acting look bad. I was not aware this was possible until I saw it happen;)
WAIT I TAKE IT BACK I CALL THEM SLURPEES. (It's been awhile? My brother and I used to stop at 7-Eleven on the way home from track practice after I got my license. They taste like sugar and victory and freedom!) Though, that combo your son likes does sound pretty gross.
Ohemgee, iPad! Everyone laughs at me so much, because it is absolutely my new favorite thing. I mean don't get me wrong. I'm not sitting staring at it 24 hours a day or something, but I do adore having all that stuff portable. I figured out how to check out books from our library on the Kindle app, so at present I'm reading an Alice Hoffman I've never before read. EXCITING.
SLURPEES. Yes, this is what my friends used to call them. I was not allowed to have such things as a child, ahahahaha. At this point I can't figure out why I cared, but at the time I felt myself terribly abused . . .
1. In the summer, yes. They are made of slushy ice, thus the name. 2. Asexual, an adult version of the weird kid on Touch, excellent cheekbones. Except for the cheekbones, that's Sherlock I'm describing, not the actor BC, of whom I know nothing about. That was also more than three words. 3. Not really. Maybe Liz Lemon on 30 Rock sometimes.
The Canon is that Jack wandered the world, hiding from the authorities and working where he could. I admit I used to think about this WAY more than I do now.
Bwah, they're made of GROSS sugar. But yes I realize the slushie name comes from the ice, but some people call them Slurpees and some people I think call them icees or something like that, so I was just curious if it was a regional thing
( ... )
Now I'm curious. Who is the TV character most like you?
If Jack was in Africa, he's probably not the only person with scars. So maybe he just gets all bashful when he's back in the US, the land of plastic surgery. He must have had surgery on his hand at some point though. IDK.
Well Nancy Grahn (the soap actress) is actually somewhat disturbingly like me. But the character she played on Santa Barbara in the '80s and early '90s, Julia Wainwright Capwell, is legit me on TV. You can ask Adrienne. Almost equally similar is the character Nancy now plays on General Hospital, Alexis Davis, but Julia is really closer. It's frightening.
Jack's magically disappearing scars. Apparently Renee's loving is so powerful that all the scars on his chest just VANISHED;) Except they weren't there when he interrogated Bazhaev either, but whatever.
1. Slurpees. Yes, definitely in the summer, but only a very small. Cream soda and Coke, or straight orange. Or lime, if they have it. I used to have a deal with the boys that we could stop for one after school if it hit 20 degrees, but it was really warm last year, so I might have to up the qualifying temperature. The year before it happened about three times. They mix all the flavours. It's disgusting
( ... )
Ah yes, Slurpees! As I was saying upthread, that's what my friends called them when I was small and never allowed to have them. i can't even remember why I didn't drink them in HS. Possibly because I already thought they were revolting, as I do now. But I'm glad to hear S isn't the only one who enjoys the nasty mixing thing. We let him get one when we go to MD, because I don't even know where you'd find one around here
( ... )
No, I think you're right that Renee was the first after Audrey. Otherwise, his meep over Audrey would have been pretty cheap. Sorry, I wasn't meaning to jump down your throat, just reacting to the idea that he would have dated. That said, I did read one fic by whats-her-face who started 24nmore about him and some woman in the former Yugoslavia (whichever part had the coast, sorry, brain dead. Jetlag.) that was completely plausible. Casual dating, no, but then I can't imagine post S1 Jack as a casual dater at all. Before that, he was probably a bit of a flirt, if completely loyal to Teri before the split. I think Nina would have made him much more cautious about women, and then there was all of the manpain from Teri
( ... )
What? You didn't go down my throat! Unless I was being tone deaf and didn't notice, lulz. I can't see him dating at ALL, or even being interested in the concept, but my point was that I do realize how much I see everything as someone who worships Renee AND as someone who didn't hop about this crazy train before S7. So I was looking for input from people who watched way before that. Thank you for validating my shippy thoughts;)
Oh man, that scene in Love Actually. I cannot even watch the one where she falls apart. I cannot. She cries, I cry. It's that simple. But I cannot loathe AR at all, because SNAPE.
I can't imagine Jack dating between S6 and S7, tbh. After having been in China and then everything with Audrey, I just feel like he'd have spent most of his time by himself during that time.
1. I'm not really into slushies, although I do love the ones that Quickly's makes (it's a bubble tea chain) especially the strawberry and green apple flavors. And I've always called them slushies unless it's a place that specifically them something else (like Slurpees at 7-11)
2. Ugh, no, ew. (Or "curdled milk features")
3. The only one I can think of right now is Eloise, haha.
I hope you have a terrified terrific weekend, too! ♥
Well I can't imagine him dating either, but I also try to be aware of my own biases, because you know, RENEE. He certainly did seem grumpy and standoffish in Redemption and the beginning of S7 though. Understandably so, oy.
I have never heard of Quickly's! I'm not at all into slushies, but S is so in love with that it's hilarious. It's like this GIANT treat for him to get one. Poor bb doesn't get out much or something.
Eloise was a six-year-old girl in a book series (although I only read two of the books) who lived at the Plaza Hotel. She was one of my favorite characters ever since I was a kid (I first read it when I was six) because she used to run around and talk to random people at the hotel and create crazy elaborate imaginative stories to entertain herself and cause trouble, and as a kid who was very into imaginative games and was also not very well-behaved, she really resonated with me, haha.
I don't know these books, but they sound delightful! I'll have to look up an image so I have some sort of association. Man, when I was little all I did was tell myself stories and forget what I was supposed to be doing, 24/7. Yikes.
1. ahahaha NOT USUALLY, i prefer my cold beverages bitter, though i went to a child's movie with an army guy and we both got them. what would one call them besides slushies? 2. naked mole rat 3. naaaaah
YOU GOT AN IPAD ME TOO ISN'T IT THE PRETTY PRETTY PRETTIEST?
Well 7-11 calls them Slurpees, but that's like a brand name thing, and perhaps I made this up but I thought people sometimes also called them icees (sp?). IDK. I dislike them and their fake coloring is kinda frightening!
NAKED MOLE RAT. I adore this.
Which iPad did you get? The big big one? Those have nicer displays, apparently, but they are too big for me. The true test will come when (probably within a year, knowing our ridiculous culture of planned obsolescence) they release the mini with a Retina display in time for NEXT Christmas. Oy;)

That's kind of all I've got? Am pretty sure that S6 is one of the seasons I never actually watched. Happy Friday to you as well!
