P.S. I could watch that show again (“30 Rock” included, of course).

When you can feel your blood pressure rising by reading the comments section of a controversial article, it’s like:
When you walk across the office to talk to someone in person only to find out they are on the phone — but they signal you to wait so it would be awkward to leave, it’s like:
When you’re sad that Easter is over because your favorite candy ever is out of season, it’s like:
Do any of these sound familiar to you?
