When my friend and his SO came over a few weeks ago we watched _Coupling_. Since I have all but the last season on DVD I loaned the episodes to my friend’s SO. I had to explain what a Tory was so that they’d ‘get’ the gag where (Tory) Patrick and Jane’s (Tory) gay date argue with the liveral Sally; but she loved the series. ---

I don’t own the DVDs but I watch them on BBC America On Demand and they always crack me up. I think Susan asking Sally to be a back up birth partner is one of the funniest damn things I’ve ever seen. ---

My friend’s SO always looks at me funny whenever Jeff speaks.
