Fun game. There's something really enjoyable about being a guy dressed in '40s clothes slapping store owners around until they cave and pay you tribute money.

Dr Robuttnik -

I think we can all agree that Paul Rudd is adorable.

Several of the greatest Simpsons episodes ever were about municipal policy in Springfield - the monorail one for example.

*cracks knuckles*
*waits patiently for a dorky white kid to mention Talib Kweli"

Something about those lines, with the beat in the background, always gives me goosebumps. One of Lif's best moments, although I always liked "My maneuver: Hans Gruber…"

How did "Eagle Eye" do?

Ah. I won't be drawn into you're snare, as I am cleverer then that.

little asian - yep.

Spirited Away is definitely a goofy choice to call "cult". However, victor.echo.november brings up the pleasant notion that it could be worse - I'm glad I won't be reading anybody's thoughts on Ninja Scroll or Ghost in the Shell.

The stream of consciousness above is hilarious. I like how you almost worked yourself into some kind of full-scale freak-out on what is essentially a nonexistent topic, then talked yourself down from the clocktower.

Louis I think this is like the third time I've seen you misuse "it's" today. Work on that.

I'm going to have to disagree, tomwaits -

Huh - didn't know that. I mean, Louis-Dreyfus is an extremely fancy-sounding name, but I didn't know HOW VERY, VERY fancy.

I think she was alluding to the whole "Whatshername Heigl Says Judd Apatow Hates Women" nonsense from last year.

I just spent about two minutes racking my brain for a way to bring Tommy Mottola into this, but I give up. Something about Mariah Carey's father was also a GI? no. eh, I hereby abandon the project.

Yep - just watched "Hamlet 2" last night. The whole movie was vaguely amusing, but most of the few times I laughed were at Poehler's character Cricket Feldstein.

You had me up until…
…"backing vocals for Maroon 5"

Sheltie - I feel the same way as you about the "holy trinity" thing (although I'm not quite as excited about bjork lately).

yep - and I'd add Tom Waits to the list of artists who bring their A game to B sides - his recent 3-disc set of rarities was very nearly as good as 3 normal lps.
