They do? Good heavens, I'm aghast!

Do people actually like Bridesmaids? It was one of the most unpleasant experiences I've had to endure.

Joseph Goebbels.

Peckerwood!? I hardly know 'er wood!

The question of whether Cruz or Trump is worse comes down to whether theocracy of fascism is worse.

Yeah, my fantasy is a contested convention with Cruz winning on the second ballot and Trump running as an independent because the nomination was stolen from him. Alas, that's looking less likely than it did two weeks ago.

Forrest Gump and Field of Dreams are two of the most popular movies that I just don't get at all. Probably means I'm an America-hating loser.

If it's hard to carve out two uninterrupted hours for a movie, how are movies still a thing?

Wow, that's not how I remember it at all - I don't recall a single person shrugging it off and going "all right, whatever". Everyone I knew had pretty strong opinions.

Yeah, the idea that if Gore had been president, the same thing would have happened is pretty ridiculous.

I've never even understood how you're supposed to drink from the other side of a glass… I feel like I must be missing something pretty obvious, but… how the hell does that work? Doesn't the water just flow up into your nose?

If you think Clinton is remotely comparable to Trump or Cruz in terms of how bad a president each would make, then you seriously need to get some perspective. That's like the people who said "Meh, Gore, Bush, they're both the same". And look where that got us.
