“Life is short, I figured slap-é diem.” – Marshall, to Ted and Robin, on bequeathing them the fourth slap When I saw the title of this episode, “Slapsgiving 2: Revenge of the Slap,” the very last thing I expected was a Lily-centric episode. One guess how I felt about that … yeah, you’d be right. […]
“If you fall for that one, my heart breaks for you, but I’m sorry, you’re a Smoron.” – Robin about Barney’s SNASA playbook entry Last weeks episode of How I met Your Mother ended with a simple, two-word promise: “Daddy’s home.” And home he is, because tonight, Barney’s back.

A How I Met Your Mother episode that was centered around Robin and Barney being a couple, and Marshall and Lily’s domestic issues? I guess that’s not so weird […]

How I Met Your Mother, oh how you made me laugh tonight. Yes, Marshall and Lily were annoyingly cute (but Barney and Robin were back to their snarky selves) and I got really sick of gouda jokes, but you made up for it in infinite ways. For instance, I didn’t know just how funny tweed […]
