I think she said in an interview she's in two episodes so I'm guessing they're saving up her second appearance for something special. At least I hope so.

I think even in college when we went to restaurants when one of us had a birthday to get them free shit we knew to pretend we were telling the server about the birthday as a way to request a table in back where we won't bother the rest of the house so much. The good restaurants know to burst into happy face at that…

My ex-roommate told me the story about trying to get them to let him watch Good Times. They actually told him they couldn't understand why he would want to watch a show with no white people.

Yeah, but Fox also told me the movie designed their villain to look like Mitt Romney. I believed them but then I saw a picture of Mitt Romney and realized he takes a picture of a Lego man with him when he goes to get his hair cut.

In New Mexico the ABC affiliate's call letters is KOAT. Every fall they do a charity clothing drive called Koats for Kids. I now wonder what else they're distributing besides the coats... I mean koats.

In high school, I was a drama nerd and there was a community theatre company that was particularly popular with our crowd because they picked a lot of edgy material, including a lot of gay themed plays. Because of this, one of the ads that would often appear in their programs came from an underwear/swimwear store in…

I haven't bought almond milk in years after I heard about malnourished bees (since there's nothing else in bloom when those almond trees are) and now there are drought issues. I'll buy almonds and almond products very occasionally but I try to limit it. But I have a hard time giving up the occasional almond croissant.…

Tho in that case Jon Stewart was the first choice for The Daily Show but he didn't want to do another talk show at the time. At least, that's that Lizz Winstead claims.

Theoretically, that's what high tax rates on high incomes are supposed to accomplish, make it so that your take-home pay after $x is so small you get more spending it on "business expenses" and then the rich distribute that income on their own.

That reminds me of the time my husband and I were in an Indian restaurant in suburban California. From the booth behind us, we could hear a woman's voice as she ordered, "No spice! No spice!" We have no idea what she got, I really hope she was with someone who really appreciated the restaurant's food.

When I heard about The New 52, I knew DC would fuck up this reboot too but what little I've seen of it makes it look like they were trying to top all the past reboots fuckups.

A lot of the hate I've seen seems to rely on people not understanding a middle ground between "Gorge yourself on boxed mac 'n cheese and oreos!" and "You can only eat brown rice and steamed veggies from now on." And then when she's seen eating a burger it's OMG HYPOCRITE because "Sometimes food" is a tough concept for…

Back in the days of e-mail discussion lists, a bunch of us on one e-mail group started our own group just to talk about the people who were driving us crazy.

Sadly, it seems like a core Republican trait is to not learn anything from your own experiences, except possibly to empathize with people who shared their exact experience. People who deal with slightly similar troubles are just whiners who can go fuck themselves.

Whenever I go out to a restaurant that serves food family style and asks for heat level, I look at everyone else at the table and say "As hot as you can go because that probably won't hit my celing." For some reason, my saying that always ends with a "Er, how about medium-hot? Would that be too hot for you?" No, if I…

I have a friend who is like that for wasabi. If you eat sushi with her, she is literally crying by the end. When you ask her if she's okay, she's "I'm fine, this is really good."

It's not learning French that would bother me, it's listening to the Montreal accent.

Not directly, but if a foreign government wants to give a dark money group some money to spend on an election, there aren't any rules that would make it possible for use to know.

Now that's the article I clicked to get!

God, I remember the days when women used to judge men based on whether they thought sex with him would be worth missing an episode of Spongebob Squarepants. "Sponge worthy" they'd call it.
