I don't know if I am prouder to have "achieved" the number 2 spot than I am disappointed in myself for giggling immediately when I saw my vote total, but it is a close call.
I hate it when Coach Taylor is disappointed in us, you guys. :(
"Local Idiot Learns it is not Okay to Call a Little Girl a Cunt."
What Book 5 does have going for it is Fatass Weyman Manderly randomly pulling the most metal revenge subplot on some tertiary characters. The North Remembers is going to be a great tagline for that season.
Whoever uploaded this video has a way different definition of the word "successful" than I do
god help any woman that Chris Brown sees trying to drink a Dr Pepper 10
Diet Pepsi got to Gabe with a little counter-programming money. That or social media is awful in almost every way.
I love that their preparation for this involved one of them talking to some other guy in the area who told them he knocked a silo down and it fell "like a tree", which explains a little bit the method behind the madness.
Props to Harmony Korine for finally having the courage to expose the fact that America will be interested in w/e confusing garbage as long as you add some hot, nubile young babes to it. What a revelation!
I'm pretty sure that Manti Teo's girlfriend was driving that truck that Gabe saw, but she evaporated / got sucked into the air like in "The Forgotten" at the moment that deadspin published their story that she didn't exist.
I was disappointed by the lack mysterious French frigates / characters randomly exploding as a result of unstable dynamite in the Black Rock trailer.
If there is nothing to say about Liz & Dick can we talk about something else I saw for the first time on cable TV? That something being Doomsday Preppers in which crazy people excitedly prepare for the end of the world / their subdivision's descent into Hobbesian chaos. The show is peppered with apparently straight-faced tips about encouraging your friends to prepare, and the subjects all seem really amped about the prospect of murdering their neighbors. I think it is on NatGeo or the History channel or something and I need someone to explain why it exists to me.
Hopefully that child didn't mean Dots, the disgusting movie theater candy. The only reason to be thankful for them is because eating Dots allows you to appreciate good candy.
Didn't the actual Segway guy ride his Segway around off-roads in the dark and, eventually, off a cliff? Guys be crazy.
Spoiler alert: I am the McAfee guy and that comment was my confession.
This is computer related, so therefore somewhat on topic, but holy moly did anyone else see the story about the McAfee Anti-Virus founder? Went crazy, moved to Belize, built a drug lab with local criminal elements to purify weird rape-drugs, possibly / probably murdered his neighbor? Yiiiiiiikes.
The BEST CASE scenario of the Elmo thing is that he didn't molest a child, he just used his position of power to sleep with a very young intern.
Just remember that you are beautiful on the inside. Like, your brain and stuff.
Haven't been punched in the face since grade school, but I did get choked out one time when I tried to drunkenly stop a bar fight and didn't realize one of the combatants burly friends was right behind me. Inserting myself into that situation was the closest my then-girlfriend now-wife ever came to breaking up with me. I'm a dummy!
I'm pretty sure everyone "knew" what happened, but they were not alright with it. The fact that what he did was wrong, and he'd be in serious trouble for it, is a plot point throughout season 1, not to mention the fact that how crazed Luther was by that point caused his life to fall apart just prior to season 1 starting. Plus the dude he let fall had a little girl (the latest of many) stuffed in a box, slowly suffocating to death IIRC.
"The Bean" will forever be my favorite piece of public sculpture because (a) of how cool it is and (b) how no one gives a shit that it is supposed to be called Cloud Gate.
Take heart! At a certain point I discovered that my infant daughter would only fall asleep if i had her on my lap in the crook of my arm as I was playing video games. I guess the subtle movements of my hands on the controller translated up my arms into the perfect "sleeping baby" movements. There is still hope!
The 1982 version of The Thing is the best thing. Wilford Brimley is in it!
You are certainly looking at it the way Rian Johnson wants you to look at it. I think he has both Jeff Daniels and Bruce Willis tell the audience explicitly for him "please don't think too hard about time travel."
Fun fact: there are apparently another 30 - 40 minutes of the movie focused on JGL's transition into Bruce Willis in China that will probably be included in the film's release in China, partly because the film was financed by Chinese investment companies and partly because the Chinese market is becoming so important. I'd really like to see those 30 - 40 minutes because the montage of them looked very cool.
I'm very late with this, and no one will ever see it, but no post about an anime club song would be complete without the original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5y3NQi_RAY
Missed a Jurassic Park gif: http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m70ck2UAV01qjxhz0o1_400.gif
Without sound you missed the defining feature of the broadcast: the incessant cloying and overwritten patter between Matt lauer and Meredith Viera. Also you missed Sir Paul's kermit the frog voice.
Same thing for RENT. Everyone in that show is a be-scarfed, unemployed layabout artiste asshole except for the dude who is supposed to be the villan. And all the villan wants is for his "friends" to kick in enough to cover the cost of the utilities they are scamming off of him or to convert the warehouse into a community cyber cafe. Fuck everyone in RENT. Except Angel, I guess, he was at least good at getting groceries for people.
Its really just that the entire entertainment community realized that nerds will pour boatloads of money into almost anything if you pander to them even slightly. On the other hand I think Kate Beaton is going to be there, and she is the best.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What did you just say about whiskey?
I for one am shocked, SHOCKED to read that the brother of Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert behaved like a vindictive, childish idiot when he didn't get what he wanted.
I liked the zoidberg sound effect the recording diver made for the puffer fish at the end.
I gave up on it when Paxton got out of the bath, and his wife dropped the line about doing her "womanly duty" with the caveat about where he sould finish. No thanks, History Channel!
5. He just spent a significant amount of time thinking about cancer and the inevitability of death.
Given that the script writer worked on the upcoming Akira abomination, we can pretty much assume that Mowgli is going to be renamed Jack, a 19 year old from the urban jungle of New Chicago. Baloo will be played by Fat Joe.
On the topic of etiquette while attending a baseball game, why can grown adults not understand the concept of waiting to the end of a half inning to get up and/or come back from concessions? They end like every ten minutes! They aren't going to run out of soft pretzels and beer!
Yes, they they changed the actor, you are not nuts. He was either a pain in the ass on set or wanted to do other things, depending on what random internet posting you want to believe. (those are your only two options)
And here I was worried that our generation would never find its version of the Muppets.
