I don't understand. Like people at this job think you should be embarrassed about not wanting to put in extra work to plan a party for them? But they aren't embarrassed about being obvious assholes?
I like how every story turns into a story about our government spying on us now. I recently had a friend tell this story about how his phone was acting weird (blank screen, couldn't access contacts, etc.) and it made him nervous because of everything that had been in the news recently regarding the surveillance scandal. For some reason, he didn't seem to believe that the fact that he lets his kid play with his phone and had just pulled it out of his mouth when this started happening. Like his drool somehow caused the spy software to go haywire instead of just ruining his phone. He's all like "This is why we should have elected Ron Paul!" and everyone else is like "Nope!"
Real conversation I had with my girlfriend:
Me: Hey did you hear that James Gandolfini died?
GF: Who?
Me: James Gandolfini.
GF: *Gasp* Mr. Feeney died?!
Me: What? No. JAMES GANDOLFINI.
GF: Oh. Who is that?
Me: Didn't you study film at one point? Wasn't that what you wanted to to do with your life once?
GF: Yeah. So?
Me: And you don't know who... it's the guy from the Sopranos.
GF: Oh. Okay.
And Gabe thinks he has the hardest life.
From the moment the invaders arrived, breathed our air, ate and drank, and flew into incredibly hot molten rock they were doomed. They were undone, destroyed, after all of man's weapons and devices had failed, by the most obvious place not to go that God in his wisdom put upon this earth. - War of the Worlds
So the awards thing was something my brother told me about it. Upon doing my own research just now I think the confusion was due to the fact that the villain was based on a design that won a competition in another show. My apologies for speaking heresy.
My brother was a big fan of the Doctor about 5 or 6 years ago. I tried to get into the show on a couple of occasions with mixed results. I think the episode that really decided it for me was when a girl somehow got turned into a cement tile from a sidewalk or something, but still lived and was just a face sticking out of this piece of concrete. This led to a very awkward joke from her new bf (who had just met her and started dating her after she became a cement tile) about how it made for an interesting sex life. I was pretty much done after that. Apparently that episode also won some special award so any lingering doubts that it was just an aberration were soon erased.
In a sport that is almost entirely about looking cool, it probably sucks that you have to do this with that ridiculous helmet cam and an outfit that looks like a red bull snuggie.

Upon reading this, my first thought was that it was shallow to define someone's "type" by their hair color as if that defined what kind of person they are. My second thought was that it was probably fair in this case as hair does seem to have more personality than KStew.
Interviewer: Let me stop you right there, Mr. Smith. When I said your son's performances seem "forced", that is not what I meant.
W. Smith: But you said the the only reason he took those roles is because of his father?
Interviewer: Actually, I said the only reason he GOT those... you know what? Never mind.
Yeah I felt like this was definitely an embarrassing episode for both parties involved, but maybe a little more embarrassing for Marc. Explaining your jokes, engaging with MIB about calling the cable company as if that was some kind of real thing, and ending on "You started this". Yuck.
Do you know what show I wish had made it? Ben and Kate. We found it on HuluPlus one weekend and were really excited until we found out it had been canceled the previous weekend. Still, a fun 0.5 seasons of comedy.
Unfortunately, due to sophisticated algorithms involving in-depth analysis of patrons and which ones are more likely to drink more, attend the bar more regularly, and attract other patrons that skank in the low cut shirt is still going to get served before me.
So I didn't get to watch with sound. Do they explain what putting a baby on a skateboard has to do with being a hero? I'm just really confused by that slogan.
Do I really believe what? His age? I'm basing that mostly off of First Class in which he was somewhere in his 20's during the Cuban Missile Crisis. I'm also not sure what year that particular illustration is from but I'm guessing since 2000.
Or are you talking about the comment regarding unrealistic expectations for body image? I think women are definitely more sexualized in comics, and the hawkeye initiative admittedly is aimed more at that, but both genders are represented as having unrealistically perfect bodies which is what the original post was about.
If we are talking about body image, I'm not sure comic books are really all that unfair to women in particular. Don't get me wrong, women are definitely depicted with substantially unrealistic body types and whatnot. But on the flip side this is what they expect a man in a wheelchair to look like:

Man there is just so much to lol at though. I've started viewing James Franco the same way I view Michael Bay or Gwyneth Paltrow. Sure they are all terrible but I think my life might be a little less bright if I could not laugh at them.
Ha! So glad James Franco and Danny McBride could team up again after Your Highness. I really think As I Lay Dying will serve as a good follow-up. Remind me. As I Lay Dying is kind of a buddy comedy with lots of jokes about drugs and sex right?
I think they could have had Erin as teens before they were married or something. The real weird part was that the documentary was about 6 months old at this point and they waited for the panel to find her. Would it have been so hard to just walk into the office or send her a letter or something?
Also, did anyone else think it was really weird how quickly they transitioned into Hannibal? Like I was still drying my eyes when all of a sudden they start talking about serial killers competing against each other or something. You just couldn't keep yourself from ruining the moment a little bit could you, NBC?
