I voted for "awesome" simply because I just love this episode because it's ridiculous. Rules are made and immediately broken between the boys, LOL that's like a defining trait of the friendship between these two.

I loved it too, it was really funny, and it ran really well. It was just loads of fun (and now I'm totally going to check out all the rules...). It's also, of course, a very believable thing that people generally have to do in these sort of situations (well, not that my-neighbour-knocked-down-our-adjoining-wall is something that happens much, but you know what I mean).

LOL

I just re-read through all the ground rules on the FAABAW site, and it reads like an episode of their bickering all on its own! Most of that site is actually intended to be read as extra stories of FRVS that aren't included in the episodes of the series.

Wow, 160-some rules? That's a lot! They obviously get on each others nerves a lot! Alcohol and sugary cereal! Yuck! These two love to hate one another. Watching their alter-egos on tv,hehe.
I've never shared a living space with friends or acquaintances, only significant others. There is more incentive to make things work out then. So never had many ground rules beyond don't bring the opposite sex around here! Hehe.
Krycek might have to make a rule that Mulder can't join him in his bed... I bet when it thunders Mulder gets scared... Haha.

Remember those rules because they get added to as the season progresses. I used to, when I was supposed to be meeting deadlines when writing FRVS, would stop and re-read the ground rules on their website simply to waste time and laugh. It does read like a bickering chat between them. LOL
