I would enjoy explaining "ABSA" Asked to use it in a sentence, I would say "Boy, it's ABSA fever out there!"

Or maybe it's a person, like Edward Armorrow.

I used to turn episodes into GIFs. Haven't done one in a while I'll get back to it some day... Here's a link to a bunch of GIFs.

If anybody wants to see the pop up version of Season 3, Episode 20, the one where Bill goes to a mental hospital, here you go: https://mega.nz/folder/lPAVlZhB#TE7UXSFkAdNv8ZMuIS_6ig

In "Who's The Boss" part 1, Matthew doesn't know where Accounting is and Bill informs him it's on the 6th floor, heavily suggesting that Accounting is on another floor. In Part 2 of the *same episode*, Matthew loses the "floor fire marshall" post to Carl from Accounting, indicating that Accounting is on the same floor.

I've been re-watching and Vicki is just so amazing! Much like Phil, she can do virtually any accent or dialect and do them brilliantly! Which means that you can insert her in just about any situation or plot and she can pull it off, yet she's probably the least visible cast member (at least after Khandi leaves.)

So just zip your sniveling little lip and HAUL YOUR SKINNY ASS OUT OF HERE!!!

I know it was supposed to look like a futuristic cigar but was it just a glow stick?

Ah, I get it now. Just about every other name in this show is super common (Dave Nelson, Jimmy James, Lisa Miller, Johnny Johnson, etc). And then there's Beth, whose last name is never revealed, she's just simply known as "Beth". Garelli is the most unique name of the bunch, so that's why it sounds strange to them.

I know I'm late to the party understanding that joke, but it does happen sometimes.

Remember that discussion about irony, I think it was Beth and a few others? Some of the lines from the Alanis Morrisette song are mentioned, such as "It's like rain on your wedding day", with someone noting that's not ironic.

But maybe it's ironic that a song about irony doesn't contain anything ironic - the ultimate irony.

Or maybe they're just oxymorons, like Swiss cheese. Don't ya think?

I'm not sure if the staff intended it this way, but in "The Secret Of Management", when Lisa visits Mr. James' mansion, I was totally getting Medieval Tournament And Dinner vibes, right down to the chalices and the corn on the cob used.

Btw, though I've never really been into the whole Medieval thing, I did go to the Tournament And Dinner in Chicago once -- it was really fun and entertaining. I would recommend it if you get the chance.

"Wedding" aired 25 years ago (3/2/99)

Hello everyone!

I re-hauled the user flairs and added some new ones and also made all flairs editable, so you can change any flair to anything you want!

Thanks everyone for being here!

The funny thing is, I don't normally listen to newsradio, but I would totally tune in to Bill & Catherine -- they have such pleasant voices. I've often wished that I could do that.

Heck, with all the technology today, maybe it isn't impossible.

Found in the wilds of Des Moines, Iowa. It's not Malt liquor, but still.

I was very tempted to buy it, but at $11 a bottle, I know it's going to be garbage.

I almost don't even know where to begin with this one. During the period when he was fired and before he was rehired, we learn that Matthew just magically opened his own dentist's office. A few problems here:

-In "Injury", Mr. James makes a comment suggesting Matthew needed some extensive dental work. Seems hard to believe a former and future dentist would allow their teeth to get that bad.

-Matthew says he abandoned his first practice out of boredom. Yet, in an earlier episode, he takes a job as a barista instead of going back to dentistry. That would hardly pay the bills in Manhattan.

-Are we to believe that accident-prone Matthew is capable of sticking sharp instruments in people's mouths for 3 years and not injuring anyone and getting sued for malpractice?

Hi folks! I’m watching season 4, Dave and Bill suddenly have red hair. I noticed it on Bill in episode 4, but then in episode 5 Dave has it too. Anyone know what’s up with that?

In season 2 ep 16 Physical Graffitti, when Mr James says Joe's pin, 3825.. that's the alphanumeric equivalent to Fuck. Which seems like a Joe thing to do.

Perhaps this doesn't qualify as a "deep thought" or anything (Oh, and I just remembered it was Phil who narrated the Deep Thoughts with Jack Handy bits on SNL. Small world), but can we talk about what a disaster Andrea was?

-Lie detector tests? I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Not to mention they're not at all reliable.

-She's an arsonist and seems psychotic.

-It was pretty clear she gave Lisa the News Director job out of nothing more than favoritism. She even outright stated she wanted to be friends with Lisa, which Lisa found rather uncomfortable. Lisa's tenure on the job crashed and burned rather quickly.

-I think it's notable that all of the major decisions she made were reversed pretty much immediately after she was no longer there.

A nutcase who hides her insanity behind an ever-present smile.

In Through The Out Door aired February 4, 1996. In it, Matthew amasses a debt of $10,240, which Joe suggested he could pay off "$1 a day for the rest of his life."

Lisa: No, not the rest of his life, but maybe the next 28.055 years.

And today, February 16, 2024, would be the last payment.

(unfortunately, Matthew lost another double or nothing bet, playing the challenging game of guessing which hand the pencil is in, raising his debt to $20,480, which would take until February 29, 2052 to pay off at $1 a day)
