I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

- Spoiler: show
- Get ready for lots of timeline jumping. There's a set of police station interviews like the original series (about 10 years later) and another set of interviews/flashbacks from about 30 years later.
Wait you have a bf? I thought you were married to a woman for some reason, did I make that up or are you poly?
Best. Friend. Trag.
BF is boyfriend. Team Trag.
This is the problem with abbreviating every goddamn thing. BF can literally mean anything as long as the words start with those letters, guys.

If he were your only boyfriend I believe he'd be "bae."

idk, I feel like bae is a higher level. bae means 'before anyone else', so it's more serious than bf. your bff could beat your bf and thus your bf would not be your bae

I guess. But you could conceivably have more than one boyfriend.

Half of you guys thought Season 2 was good until about episode 10, so why would I trust your translation of BF?

BFF means Best Friend FOREVER. Maybe r2d's friendship with that belching fetus isn't forever. You have to allow for fluidity.
