Will's fantasy witness questioning scene was fantastic. I loved everything about it.

Body switch? Sure, why not. But they locked the wrong actor in the box.
I remember learning that Washington died of a "sore throat" in school, then a few years later learning he had (and may have died from?) syphilis. It was one of those pivotal moments for me, since that's the first time I can remember questioning that maybe the history I was learning in school wasn't as accurate or…
Just in time for the Catching Fire premiere, Little Irving Girl was Rue in The Hunger Games!
I called it Angry Molesting Tree.
This is a sad article, and I feel bad for giggling at that poor "fatally squashed" chipmunk.
I thought that was odd too. I thought maybe David Lee urged Diane to call a vote knowing he'd go the other way in order to make her look bad (somehow?) but without the follow up I just wound up being confused.
I had to laugh at how generic that was. Every Milwaukee Fest is a Milwaukee Food Fest.
Ugh, Criminal Minds. I was really into the show for about six months (the reruns were everywhere!) until all of a sudden it struck me that the show made me feel terrible about, like, humanity in general. Unrelentingly dark. Plus I think that show's covered more serial killers in its (what, eight? nine?) seasons…
Oh my god your icon. Is that Thursday Next's car?
Nope, but I'll have to add it to my list!
I finished my last David Mitchell book, Number9Dream, last week and am very sad I don't have another to look forward to. I can't say it ranks among my favorite of his (Cloud Atlas and The Thousand Autumns… duke it out for that spot) but it was still distinctly his, and I liked Eiji.
I try to reread it every Christmas. It was one of my favorite books as a kid.
That's how I felt about the last line of All Quiet on the Western Front.
It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure he just muted the TV. Now that I think about it, he held a piece of paper in front of the screen during the breast exams and the sex dream/nightmare.
Economics, junior year of high school. I think Office Space had to be the biggest stretch there, though I definitely wasn't complaining there. My teacher coughed loudly to cover up any F words and somehow got away with showing the film for a couple of years past me before the administrators told him to stop.
Movies (and tv shows) I have shown as a substitute teacher: Annie, Moneyball, The Wizard of Oz (dubbed in Spanish, except the songs were still in English), Selena, Goal!, several episodes of Planet Earth, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Mythbusters … and this is not counting the various "Educational Videos" on subjects…
Definitely watched Gattaca in my biology class in high school. It was in my year that my teacher finally noticed the letters in the title came from GATC like a DNA sequence, and that blew all of our minds.
The Hudsucker Proxy, Roger and Me, God Bless the Child, The Milagro Beanfield War, Gung Ho, and Office Space. All in the same one semester class.
