The Psychotic Episode: Boy Meets World (1999)

Boy Meets World was one of my favorite shows from the ’90s. I used to watch it anytime it was on. There are a lot of great episodes, especially ones for our Halloween countdown.

This episode comes from season 6. The gang are in college and Cory and Topanga are engaged. Story A is that Cory keeps having these nightmares about killing Shawn. Its kind of weird and a bit boring (to be honest). In the end the dreams symbolize what Cory will give up getting married, the path not taken.

The B story, that’s the one I remember and love. Jack is dating Rachel, the girl Eric also had fallen head over heels with. But since they are together, Eric moved out. He wants to watch the girl they love mack on their best friend?

He tries to move into his parent’s house, but no longer has a room as it is a nursery for his baby brother.

He tries Shawn and Cory, but no dice there either.

Then Topanga’s room, but nope there too.

He is sleeping in the Student Union when Jack ad Rachel find him. They try and bring him back, but anything would be better than having to constantly see the girl you love with your best friend.

He pleas for a roommate, he’s desperate when he gets an answer to his prayer. Another student, Adam is looking for a roommate.

It’s perfect!

So Eric checks out his new digs. It is not only a pretty nice apartment, its gorgeous, Eric only has to pay “whatever he can afford”, and there is a gorgeous neighbor Adam will delightfully introduce him to. Life is good for Eric.

Alright!

But then Eric sees why Adam can’t kept a roommate. Can’t sit in his dead mother’s chair.

Or his dead Uncle Dave’ couch.

Uhh…this is creepy

Adam calls him from a seat away and will only converse over a phone.

Then Adam brings out his pet parrot for Eric to meet and feed. She’s stuffed. Who does he sound like?

Boy/Man Child

This is getting to weird for Eric-he’s going out…but then Sheila, the neighbor comes over in only a towel and Eric stays.

Eric is actually coming around to living with Adam, the perks outweighing the weird.

But then Adam decides to introduce him to his mother. We hear Adam and his mother talking in the other room.

AAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That’s it-Eric’s out.

Good-bye

Hilarious and so well done. A great homage to Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and just all around great episode. You should definitely check it out.

A Spot of Trouble

I have issues.

And no this isn’t about my addiction to reading as I have written on in the past. It’s about something more serious. Spots.

And not the decorative spots on fabric or freckles on skin. I have spot issues as that is my spot and I want you out of it.

Part of this I think comes from being the youngest child, as one feels the need to claim what they can as theirs.

The other part of it is that I think I am just a creature of habit and like going the same paths, to the same spots. It makes me feel comfortable.

The earliest I can remember is when I did martial arts. We were assigned certain spots, and when someone tried to get in mine, I would kick them out. That’s my spot.

This happened in college as well. I had certain chairs I would sit in for each class. I had my special nooks in the library, and if someone sat in my spot I would spend quite some time glaring at them for even considering being in my spot!

Grab your torches and sharpen your pitchforks!

One time I was so offended that I had to work out my anger on the internet.

And let me tell you, those glares worked and that girl left. Leaving me all to my spot.

Yay Me!

The Biggest Bill You Should Be Paying

I do have a problem. I can’t stop buying books. Even when I have no room for them.

No matter what arguments I make, I end up taking at least one book home.

But hey, what better thing to spend your money on, right?

I wholeheartedly agree!
