The fide website seems to think Anand ran out of time. Is this wrong?

You can also watch http://www.twitch.tv/ChessNetwork. It's a Masters level player analyzing the game as it progresses, if that's your cup of tea.

Not listening to Svidler is blasphemy.

This bxc4 move feels so counterintuitive to me, but I trust Vishy.

I liked this endgame a lot, especially with the moves Anand made to force the draw. Definitely don't blame Carlsen for going for it, though; his position looked very strong and it seemed as though there might have been a win in there.

I understand why he does it usually, but this might be the moment for Carlsen to stop torturing Anand (and us).

and now it's knight and rook vs rook, prepare for another three hours lol. Also Svidler apparently loves buffaloes

Would be so funny if Carlsen would finally offer a draw just for Vishy to refuse it and play for 50 moves.
