*sighs* Boys, boys, boys....when will you learn to play together nicely?
I was explaining the BFTC plot to my friend today and started comparing and contrasting it to our current eating situation: "See, my mom has always been The Cook around the house, just as Bruce has always been The Batman. Over the past few months, there have been instances where mom came very close to getting a job but never actually did, just as Bruce kept almost being dead. Now she's officially got a job, just as Bruce is officially dead, and the question arises as to who will fill the role of The Cook now that she's gone. Would it be Dad, who's really damn good and has had years of practice? Would it be me, even though I'm inexperienced? Would it be our asshole housemate who has a radically different taste in foods? It's no surprise to anybody that Dad has now officially taken up the Mantle of The Cook, or that Dick is the new Batman."
