One little detail that I'd somehow never noticed before in "Run Away, Little Boy", even though it's hilarious: when Rory, Paris, Madeline and Louise are doing their scene of Romeo and Juliet, Louise, as Friar Laurence, is taking absolutely no care to remain in character, and instead is examining her fingernails.

As someone who's studied Old English, it's almost physically painful for me to hear Sookie call it "Old English".

Uhhh… you got any drums?

It's a good thing Michel's French family wasn't around to hear him ask for "low-fat American cheese."

If it makes you feel any better, people with penises for noses are also horribly persecuted in Uganda.

Of all the Dylan songs whose titles that could take up the limited space on that statue, why on earth would you place "Mozambique" in such a prominent spot? It's a fun song, sure, but it's pretty much the definition of "minor."

Well at least you don't let that stop you from commenting.

Well sure, if you lived in multiple houses in 1984, you could probably afford VCRs for most of them.
