    I have seen many old married couples where one member swings seatbelts around and bites people like a shark.

    Usually that one is in a nursing home.

      This reminds me of the one episode in The Andy Griffith Show where the older couple fight all the time and end up getting arrested for disturbing the peace. Poor Andy had to try and fix the situation, he successfully reversed the process, getting both of them to get along and actually like each other, but b/c of that each of them started snapping at other people in Mayberry. Talk about reverse reverse psychology.

    Any guesses as to why exactly Billie is so angry over the idea that there could be something between her and Walky? I ask because this exact situation has occurred to/around me precisely never, and the curiosity is driving me nuts.

      She didn’t want anyone to realize that she was secretly attracted to him?

      She probably considers him more like a brother than a love interest?

        If she was really trying to hide anything, then why does she start yelling about how Walky is not her boyfriend when ever they come within a hundred or so yards of each other? Her real purpose, most likely, is:
        A. To make certain that he thinks about her, and plant the seed of reverse psychology in his little brain.
        B. To warn all other interested parties that he is marked territory, if not claimed.
        C. To tell parties interested in her, that she is not technicaly attached, YET, so they better start plying her with gifts (booze) soon, or lose out. Line forms at the rear.

        Of course, she has been complicated by a version of Walky that is in equal parts more masculine and feminine. Her new room mate. Now she has to figure out how to seduce both of them, but not at the same time, of course.

      It’s because, just like in other continuities of the Walkyverse, Billie and Walky grew up neighbors and went to the same high school together. However, in high school she was a cheerleader and considered herself the top of the hierarchy. Walky was Walky, and so he was at the bottom of the hierarchy. Billie never moves past her high-school-hierarchy view of the world, and considers Walky way beneath her. Granted, most of the time he justifies this view with his stupid and/or disgusting actions, but this is why she views him with disgust.

      Not necessarily. There have been plenty of times I’ve seen two people acting similarly to Walky and Billie, and I’ve asked out of a burning curiosity — not because I was interested in either of them.

      Of course, curiosity about the way they act around one other doesn’t necessarily preclude the possibility that Dorothy also wants to know if Walky is taken, or if she can safely make a move on him.

        Walky waits in a dark room for Dorothy. He thinks he’s getting some, but she was actually only going to return some Monkey Master dvd. You know…”give it to him”. Oh Walky, you silly mixed up goose.

        Meanwhile, drunken Billie follows some hunk into a room to makeout. But oops! Gets distracted along the way, goes into the wrong room. Then she jumps Walky.
        Hot hot disgusting love ensues, followed by much drama when Dorothy comes in and flicks on the light.

            Not really. See she loudly protests her disdain of all things Walky while secretly loving him. Not that I believe she does, though I do believe she likes him and is unwilling to admit it to herself. If she really disliked him as much as she seems to, she could avoid him or ignore him, but she never does.

            But not in the context in which Hamlet’s mother uses it. The woman in the play is hemming and hawing about her dead husband, and Hamlet’s mom is like “NOW KISS!” In that case, protest really does mean “speak out against.” As in “I think the lady is speaking out too much against banging a new dude now that she’s a widow.” So… yeah.

            If you ignore the early modern English… they kind of are realistic. Like, alarmingly so. They’re not always super deep, because a lot of his characters are meant to realistically portray a character trait rather than a “full” character, but the man knew people.
