Gimmick Sandler is more like an SNL era Sandler character hyping up current Sandler projects though, whereas real Sandler just seems incredibly checked-out rather than goofy or stupid when promoting his projects.

I'm gonna say "ursustrianism."

You mean a lack of opportunity to get wasted?

They mention that “Now That I’m Taking Myself Seriously As An Artist (Wet Hot Beef Part III)” doesn't sound like the title, but what the hell would that title even imply it sounds like? Other than "bad."

I'm old enough to have seen some of it in real time and still didn't really put that together aside from a couple of little touches. The set of things i actually remembered from the OJ trial decades later was pretty narrow.

I don't think they'd actually leave. I mean, if all they want is an argument, there's someone on the other side after the same thing to satisfy them. The benefit of ignoring them is pretty much just about your own sanity rather than being some way to utterly defeat them.

I actually noticed the guy with the gas can's hands were inexplicably white at the time, and thought it was just a bizarre mistake and forgot about it until the tag.

So is Bill's return trip from the bathroom based on the scene after Jennifer Connoly first sleeps with a guy for money in Requiem for a Dream, or is there something else/earlier it matches more closely?

I don't watch Colbert much any more and am still watching some Conan. I really wanted to like Colbert's version of The Late Show, but too much of it felt like an awkward compromise between the much better Report and him doing a not-as-Conan version of the traditional thing. There was almost always something in a given…

Quitting booze is really unlikely to make you fat. It's a concern with quitting stimulants like nicotine or meth (but like you say, not as much of a concern of staying on them), and i don't know one way or the other regarding opiates.

I honestly have no idea what the hell she means, because the guy isn't willing to accept "no" but he and the rest of his society also don't want to hear "yes." With so much pressure on both sides, you can argue either answer she gives is the result of that pressure, but obviously one of the possibilities has to be her…

Yeah, sorry about that, i know there's no point in arguing this stuff but it's still hard to resist.

Does naturally aging into ugliness count? If so i'm sure there are plenty of 60+ musicians and stuff that have hosted and looked a lot worse than him.

I have no one to blame but myself for seeing it. It's not a better situation.

Now that we know The Revenant doesn't include bear rape, it's probably fine to take kids to it, right?

Wow, IMDB lists this Josh Green as Josh Green (XXVIII). I think that's the highest differentiating numeral i've ever come across there.

I kinda disagree about the "dirty kids." I think how dumb they are is indeed pretty lazy, but how dangerously unsupervised they (and bill and maureen) are is pretty funny. Rubbing caustic insulation on themselves is barely an exaggeration of some stuff people i know did as kids. It is amazing what kids (mostly boys i…

My point is, there are completely non-twitchy games out there. Civ 5 isn't going to punish a lack of reflexes, and writing it off for that reason is pretty odd.

Not that you owe it to video games to play them or anything — there's infinite other stuff to spend time on — but saying you don't play games due to poor coordination is a bit like saying you don't watch movies because you're not into romance. Sure, a ton of film is dedicated to romantic relationships, but it's still…

Whether or not you could has been the source of some pretty intense debate over the centuries.
