Summary
Today we hear about Sarah's missing caterpillar, and hope for a day when it emerges in all its ugly moth glory. Susie realizes she's a huge bitch (not sure how this just occurred to her), but she's a subtle bitch, which is nice. Sarah is mad at Home Depot for wanting to make a profit off of the plant demand, and she tries to think of a way she could steal cactuses from a national park without being a criminal. We debate a new law in China where people are restricted in the amount of time they can play video games, and Susie suddenly becomes a conservative about government overreach. Plus we find out why we kind of think we're actors in a video game right this very second. It's sPoOoOoOkY!
