It always felt a little uncanny that both Adaptation and True Blood used that "decomposing fox" footage.

Beware of those rubbish burglars.

Oh man, Singer should really stay away from any "sucking" or "blowing" with young actors involved.

It turns out George St. Geegland isn't Jewish, his family is Presbyterian from Von Dutch.

Agreed, definitely check out Good Neighbor Stuff, his pre-SNL sketches with Beck Beckett and the other guy.

Thought I was the only one.

Seems like they'll be going down the Children's Hospital route.

My wife? My wife!

I'm no Talmudic expert or anything, but aren't there spots where the Sages say that the Roman occupation directly resulted from the sins of the Hasmoneans?

Plus, I would say Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen are on somewhat of a roll as far as writing and directing go considering most people seemed to really enjoy This Is the End.

Seems a little ridiculous to me that this Newswire is claiming the popularity of Serial signals the popularity of podcasts in general. I'm pretty sure that a large percentage of those million Serial listeners are listening to a podcast for the first time, and then searching for more "true crime" podcasts. After

Plus she's the beer-pong champ of the Dartmouth frat scene.

I wonder if Elaine was high while working for Mr. Pitt.

I've definitely experienced that office work limbo before. On one hand, you want to do what you're paid to do, which is work. On the other hand, you do not want anyone to know that they're really paying you for nothing.
