Dear Old Love isn’t having the desired effect. I miss him. More than ever. But truth be told, even while we were together, even when we were skin on skin, there wasn’t a moment I didn’t miss him terribly.

If one more person uses this word or if I see it on one more agency RFP I am going to just lose it. It is an episode. It is a show. A “webisode” is not a thing.
Stop it. Just stop it.
Also, you can’t “make it go viral.” Next person who asks me to help them make their content go viral will get a smack.
Come on...

Typical True Blood Dialogue
Bill: Sookeh, I must go, and you cannot come with me
Sookeh: Bill? Why? Why won't you tell me where you're going?
Bill: It is something I have to do. I cannot tell you.
Sookeh: Bill? Why are you always keeping secrets from me?
Bill: I am sorry Sookeh, it is one of my mysterious quirks, like not using contractions such as "I'm" and "It's". [Bill leaves]
Sookeh: Bill? Bill? Bill!
Ten minutes later
Bill: Sookeh, I have returned.
Sookeh: Bill! You're back!
Bill: Yes, and I have brought you a tube of Pringles, a Scotch Egg and a Cadbury's Caramel.
Sookeh: Bill, you...you went to the 24-hour garage down the street?
Bill: Yes. I am sorry I could not tell you why I was going to the 24-hour garage down the street to get you some snacks. It is just the way it had to be.
Sookeh: Oh Bill! You're so mysterious!

– Ripping on Mitch Albom is like an old jazz standard, or The Aristocrats: It’s a standard, giddy trope that’s all about what the artist brings to the performance. Tommy Craggs is the John Coltrane, the Bob Saget of Albom buggering. (via leitch)
