How I Met Your Mother and 2 Broke Girls - Didja watch?

Didja watch HIMYM?  If you had you woulda seen:

- Barney's story about the death of the ducky tie.  I was almost thrilled but stupid Barney didn't burn it and instead just threw it away, which is how Lily found it again.  Uh, why was Lily going through trash?

- The gang share their memories of Hurricane Irene.  Ted wants to get out of NYC and everyone thinks he's overreacting.  Barney calls Ted "a giant, whining bummer" and I love him even more for it.  They fuss about it for a while and end up stuck at Barney's.

- Marshall turn into a "clingy Edgar Allan Poe" because he's afraid of going two weeks without health insurance.

- the return of the slap bet and this is when they get my attention again.  Barney is allowed to give up the tie in exchange for 3 extra slaps.

Notes: turns out that Marshall and Lily conceived during the storm and Ted finally contributes to the show with, "Hurricane Erickson would be a great name." It would indeed, Ted.

Also, Barney and Robin kiss even though they're both in relationships:

I am no longer surprised at scenes like this

Didja watch 2BG?  If you had you woulda seen:

- Max and Caroline giving their customers nicknames.  My favorite was JonBeret Ramsey.

- Caroline take a second job as an organizer for a hoarder.  This is when the show sucks me right in.  Max is totally right when she says, "Hoarders should TOTALLY charge admission." Also, her idea for 'Hoarders 3D. The Experience' is a winning one. 

- Max gets line of the episode when they hear a second voice from behind the piles of stuff, "Hold up.  He's hoarding another hoarder in here? Awesome."  Awesome indeed.

- Zano!!! Hot as ever, buddy.  Why no kissy kissy with Max?!?! Oh! Because you have a black, British girlfriend and those are two things that Max can never be. Bummer.  He does have feeling for Max though so there's that.
