Chekhov’s Firing Squad

A Chekhov’s Firing Squad is when a TV show or movie has almost no plot in the first several episodes, and then proceeds to pull all triggers at once. The way that this turns out is a show feeling bland, with presumably filler episodes for most of the season, though these episode actually build foreshadowing and silent plot. These small, unnoticed details go completely unheard or said, until they all hit you at once like a freight train.

“Bro, that show was a Chekhov’s Firing Squad!”

fixins

A Southern (USA) word for the supplemental food, dishes, ingredients, and accompaniments to whatever you are eating, cooking, or serving.

A hamburger can have fixins (tomatoes, pickles, ketchup), barbecued meat can have fixins (baked beans, cole slaw, potato salad), and even fixins can have fixins (baked beans made with added bacon, toppings for a baked potato).

For Thanksgiving dinner we had turkey with all the fixins--cranberry sauce, green beans, wild rice, sweet potatoes.

I'll have the fajita burrito with all the fixins like grilled onions, green peppers, sour cream, cheese.

What fixins would you like with your burger, hon?

I like all the fixins with my Chinese food--wonton soup, egg roll, lots of rice with the dish, and a fortune cookie at the end.
