Once upon a time my friends and I would gather for jam sessions, most often featuring me fumbling along on bass to the other guys, who were actually pretty good. We could play "hey do you know this song?" and then "play" out as much of said song as we could figure out off the top of our heads. The guitarist eventually…

Eh, Rose needs a PR guy to run these things through before he says them. Like, I understand thinking about the future and not wearing yourself down early in the season, but don't word it like "I don't want to be sore when I'm 40." Like the guys on the radio pointed out, most everybody is "sore" when they're 40.

I don't think Cutler is disinterested, he just has permanent sour-face. That is to say, I think he genuinely wants to win and works to get better but it doesn't stick when shit hits the fan (and also he has sour-face). All the work on his mechanics and decision-making seems to go out the window when he's under too…

Oh there is certainly a distinction, and I can see how "My First Favorite Band (That was my own and not my parents)" is a clunkier title. Even then, so much of what I listened to once I broke away from my folks was heavily influenced by what my friends liked and what was popular on the alt-rock station. I have a hard…

You sort of bring up my only quibble with this article: I'm pretty sure the writer had a favorite band before he was 12. But chances are it was directly influenced by whatever his parents listened to, and so I guess it doesn't count. I would still say my first favorite band was Alabama, even if that's entirely…

i hated the finale, but the more I think about it the more I believe the same plot points would've played much better over the course of a season, I really hated how they built-up Barney and Robin just to fizzle out the relationship during the finale. Playing that out over a few episodes… well at the least it provides…

But what else is he supposed to do? It's way too early in the season to ask him what the weather is like down there on the field.

Sicilian-style is a deep-dish stuffed pizza, where the top layer is crust. Chicago-style is a deep-dish with the sauce on top, cheese & other ingredients in the middle. Look at the wikipedia article for chicago-style pizza. It does mention that some places started making stuffed pizzas in the 70's, which is where the…

It sounds like you actually had stuffed pizza. You can buy stuffed pizza in Chicago, but that doesn't make it "Chicago-style."

A roommate and I once binged on one of those for a day. I found the introductory stories interesting, but the actual "hunts" are just really, really stupid. Just people running around the woods at night attributing every possible sound to Bigfoot, when it's much more likely a raccoon or another idiot stomping around…

The common theme among your list of unreal ideas, DrDischord, is the last one you mention: "success." All of the others are benchmarks of success in the eyes of our culture. I'd argue that sex is stressed more than others because everyone has the tools (heh, "tools"), and we all become hormonal teenagers overly…

The design departments of mcD's largely consist of Project Managers. Creative decisions, like Happy here, are ultimately made and approved by those with no actual background in art or design. They are more concerned with handling the budget of projects than producing something creative (or in this case, not…

I think it's less a matter of effort and more a product of business executives with no background in art or design making decisions on creative processes. The design departments at McD's mostly consist of Project Managers who simply outsource the design work. It's more about managing a budget than developing something…

"… whatever you do, never give a gypsy calcium."

That's the problem… they (the NRA) are the loudest voices so people assume they represent the sentiments of every gun owner and they fuckin' don't.

@Dikachu:disqus  Well, the mouse in The Mouse and the Motorcycle doesn't wear clothes AND he has a motorcycle.

edit: ugh, see below

I thought this was an adapation that no one asked for of the Playstation 2 game.

Ok the timing of the Devil Wears Prada name is like this according to wikipedia:2003  Book2005 Band
2006 MovieSo feel free to rip them for getting the name from a book, I guess, but I sincerely doubt they vigorusly followed the production of the latest Meryl Streep movie when choosing the name. Also, screw you guys for…

You're questioning wacky discussions the characters had while under the influence of psychotropic berries?!
