Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

That wallpaper wouldn't be that phallic if it wasn't for the sideways penises.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Marriage between first cousins is actually not a problem unless it happens in multiple generations. It used to be pretty common even.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, I have a female first cousin who's not quite married yet.... t /schemes

That wall paper was wrong. OH! Speaking of wrong: Did I mention my brother gave dad a "wall of dick" for Xmas? He went trolling on the internet and got all the good images of phalluses painted on buildings in Bhutan and tastefully printed them out (it's a good luck thing there. You can also visit a particular monastery there and get whacked by a wooden phallus for fertility. I demurred.) Anyway, kind of hilarious. And my fault, according to my SIL, since I mentioned the whole deal.

I'm getting the pig!

I swears I was only watching What A Girl Wants for the Colin Firth dancing around in the leather pants scene (SO HOT). He's danced, I've drooled, so now - why am I still watching?!?

Bhutanese phalluses painted on buildings are better than that wallpaper. I had to phrase that carefully.
