    Who wants to fool around when there's a season's worth of Mad Men to catch up with on the DVR?

    It's because we are watching How I Met Your Mother and we're afraid our baby is going to be disappeared like Marshall and Lily's.

    My folks had three kids in the first three years they were married.

    Then they put a tv in their bedroom.

    It took 'em 10 more years to knock out three more.

    "Do you want to watch one more Game of Thrones before we head up?"

    "Sure"

    An hour and 15 minutes later:

    "Hey, you wanna...?"

    "No, it's too late. I've got work in the morning."


    That scene has never played out at my house. Never.

    Bad timing on this one.
    Marvin was in tonight's episode.

    I'm sorry, I have sex to get back to.
