You aren’t getting an apartment anywhere in NYC for $350 a month, and I’d venture it’s the same for most desirable metropolitan locations. More realistically: you are going to pay about $2500/month, and help a property owner build equity, while you shovel money out the door never to be seen again.

What kind of idiots ran this hotel? A while ago traveling with family I needed to call my brother-in-law’s hotel room but didn’t remember which room # was his. I called the front desk and they refused to tell me for security purposes. Yet these Nashville geniuses thought nothing of giving out the room number of a

Curious by what you mean about being the worst in real life. We’re big fans of his terrible work, tell us more!

My wife despised Watchmen because one of the characters attempted to rape another, but later they had an affair resulting in a child. On and on she went about how ridiculous and appalling and disgusting it was. My response was those three words: Luke and Laura.

The best thing about the 50th anniversary was the return of Stavros. That guy is flat-out the worst actor in history, but it’s beautiful because he knows it and hams it up to no end. We were in stitches.

Another good response is “Ugh, I’m still hung over from last night” Or two days ago, or whatever.

It’s just a common sense boundary. I have enough friends and acquaintances who are Friends of Bill to know there are reasons some people don’t drink and some might not want to discuss it. It’s none of your business. Do you ask women “How many months along are you?” if they have a belly?

I had to stop hanging around a group of work friends because they were relentless about the fact I wouldn’t smoke with them. I just never enjoyed it - I’d get even more introverted, and paranoid, and stare into space. And they would rag on me, call me a square and nonsense like that.

The last extended dry period I did, I got a really good view of how all my drunk friends and family behaved - the loudness, repetitiveness, stupidity, argumentativeness, spittle, and general unpleasantry. And figured, “Damn, I must fit right in when I drink.” Since then I have tried real hard to moderate. Mild buzz is

I wasn’t allowed to watch Soap as an 11-year-old because there was a male character that - gasp - liked other men. Apparently my parents thought I might get ideas, or catch The Gay over the airwaves.

Any time the color mauve comes up at work (ad agency) or anywhere else (most recently, a paint shop) I belt out “And then there’s Mauve!”. 50% hilarity, 50% blank stares.

I love how old people re-named shows after a character. To my Grandma, Happy Days was “Funzie” (she mispronounced things, too), Welcome Back Kotter was “Barbarino”, General Hospital was “Luke and Laura”, The Young and the Restless was “Victor”.

What if you have a phone but the battery is dead? Or it goes haywire? Or you drop it in the toilet? This whole thing is preposterous.

Different car, same outcome: I drive an old Galaxie with mags, a cam and glasspacks, and almost every time I take it out some lunkhead starts revving up his Mustang or whatever next to me at a light. Look Falfa, this isn’t American Graffiti, it’s a main street in New York City.

I would like to see severe civil judgment. Like bankrupt this asshole and his entire family. Sue him and if he has a house, take it. All of his belongings get auctioned to meet the penalties. And no option for putting things in his wife’s name (if there is one) so she keeps it. I want the Lockhart clan living in a box

I never read any of the novels and haven’t seen the films in many years. I assumed there were lots of things that sailed over my head (and recaps were invaluable for Hannibal), but I loved it for those exact surreal, avant garde qualities. Sometimes it was great to look at even if I wasn’t 100% sure what the hell was

Absolutely.

Everything and everyone was fantastic in Hannibal. And still people wouldn’t watch it. Guess we need more variations of NCIS instead.

Schools investigating rape accusations is idiocy. They have a vested interested in minimizing the reports of such incidences, and in trying to discredit accusations against important athletes. To compensate, they have now been pressured into kangaroo courts where accused have zero rights.

Aldi, the discount cousin of Trader Joe’s, also has GS cookie knockoffs that are indistinguishable from the real product at like 1/3 the price.
