Yeah. The change came from Jackie Stewart, not the spectators.

Really? If you remember, be sure to tell Ylvis:

I loved that movie too! The ship's called the Palomino.

Yeah. He played a camp counselor:

In that video she looks like she really is having fun. Patricia's right: she's flat-out adorable.

Oh, yeah, I believe you. I just saw an excuse to post that video. :)

a girl on there kept insisting that she was best friends with Courtney Love

It's someone cosplaying as Spider Jerusalem, the lead character of Warren Ellis's Transmetropolitan:

As a former eight-year male resident of London, let me just add to this. While the spread can often be mitigated by not slouching, it's not a viable option for Madden here. He's in the narrowest seat, where the plastic partition takes up the space where another armrest would normally be. Unless you're very petit,…
