The proper protocol for reading an episode recap by thefourthvines:

Pop popcorn and pour a drink.

Arrange laptop out of spitting distance.

Read.

Crack up.

Choke on popcorn.

Cough a lot.

Weep.

Deny vehemently that you're reading from your Dreamwidth circle.

Blame it on the choking fit.

Throw unpopped kernals at cat, then demand someone else clean them up. (Ooops, that's just the popcorn protocol.)

Thank God for fandom.

Really.
