At a valet station in the not-distant future, two dudes will be leaping about screaming “JORDAN PEELES IS MY JAM!”

I suspect the averages cited in the piece are inflated by including the salaries of administrators and the like. I bet the actual classroom staff (and support staff) range is significantly lower.

Yeah, I was def put off by the adulation being heaped on Bryant. Gross. Memories are short. (I remember having a heated argument with my sister in law during that whole proceeding, wherein she insisted Kobe’s accuser was lying and in it for the dough. I’d like to think she’s evolved on the subject since, though I…

I don’t remember, how could I, it was the same as any Tuesday! Quotidian behavior! Doesn’t even leave a dent in my memory!

Maybe it’s me, but the phrase ‘interviews under caution’ is indescribably arousing. Perhaps I watch too many UK police-procedurals....

They have all developed an immunity to Iocain powder; the rest of us are silly Sicilians choosing between poisoned goblets.

“I like people who don’t get mugged.”

One other aspect that makes things like ‘crisis actors’ believable to people is the reliance by the perpetrators that their audience (and maybe even themselves) simply doesn’t know how anything works. So you can fill in anything fantastical you want, and you get nodding heads. For instance, the ‘heat from jet-fuel…

Isn’t enraging that being a feminist means getting disparaged as a man-hater when the things that men do unquestionably warrant being loathed? Fuck.

That’s where my money is...

Dude! Mamet already had his awful say on the subject: a play called Oleanna. Enough!

I remember reading his book (on his seal experience) after he went on Jon Stewart, because he impressed me so with his erudition and polish (Rhodes Scholar, too). In it, he talks about the value of diplomacy and soft power (and other liberal things), and I remember thinking that he’d go into lefty politics someday.…

Blackmail is so RUDE. He eats the rude. Errybody knows that.

He’s effective, too, as a creepy-af prison guard in the most recent season of The Affair.

I saw a clip of Isaac at a roundtable not too long ago in which he shared your dismay, saying something like “it’s difficult to watch your man kiss somebody else.” HOW CAN THIS NOT HAPPEN, UNIVERSE?!?!

What, is Krasner trying to suck up to John Legend? I mean, I get it....

This was precisely Peele’s take on it in the HR roundtable that aired this past weekend. By the time the cop car shows up, the audience has already done the work of understanding Cops are Not Chris’s Friend. And then it turns out that it IS his friend! Whee! Cake, had and eaten!

Civil plural marriage is not yet legal, so: no.

All credit for my first-place finish has to go to my coaching team and my internet connection.

The word should be “darker timbre”, the first syllable of which is pronounced close to ‘tam’. I’m guessing this was transcribed from audio?
