I'll know?

Yes, that's generally the not-so-witty follow up to that.

I'm having an off day, don't blame me for that.

And here I thought prison might make you cleverer.

I had plenty of time to read. I never said I read good books.

Oh, but bad books are full of pithy remarks in the place of good characterization and plot.

The good books have pithy remarks also--though, theirs have become pithy as they're taken out of context time and time again.

Oh, of course they do. But they aren't as good for chatter like this.

I'll grant you that--they really aren't.

It's like how bad TV helps you banter better. Stuff like Buffy!

Yeah, never watched Buffy. [ when you're in a decade long funk after your vampire boyfriend bit the dust, you understandably avoid anything vampire related. ]

It was actually mostly before my time, but Netflix is as Netflix does.

Well, when I get out of here, I know what to watch, then.

Unless someone's from that world.

The big inconvenience to us all.

Yeah, that's something I've been meaning to ask you about. I haven't been able to find any Doctor Who dvds in ages. Is that just something that happens? The Doctor shows up and suddenly poof, no more Doctor Who?

No more Doctor Who, no more Back to the Future ...

Toby would be crushed. [ pause, explanation. ]

He's an old flame of mine. We met at a Halloween party when he was dressed as Marty McFly.

That makes two of us who have dated people that are way too into Back to the Future. But I haven't had the heart to break it to Noh-Varr yet.

You'll be able to break the bad news to him eventually.

Or I'll make Loki do it.

I vote for making Loki do it.

Yeah, good plan.

Of course, you're the one who's going to have to convince Loki to enlighten Noh-Varr about the current lack of Back to the Future in this universe. Unfortunately, I don't know either of them enough.

I'll lie and say that I'll actually sleep on his uncomfortable love seat the next time I crash at his apartment.

Take one for the team, Bishop.

video.
