Are you in Kansas City? My hometown; I still have some friends there but the most metal thing they like is Dragonforce.

You didn't specify if the two are related, but if someone asked me out and our first date was watching Arrested Development, well… the date would likely go very well for both of us.

Sometimes only one word will suffice to describe how hot it is, and that word is "balls."

Oh man, I'd rather be dead in California than alive in Arizona. (Five hours and no one's made this joke yet?)

I'm going to visit my parents over the holiday, and it was only recently I realized it coincided with Arrested Development. So I texted my mom to ask if we could have frozen bananas on Sunday, and she said "You get them, I don't have ten dollars."

I'm on a wheat beer kick — my favorite is Boulevard from back home, but lately I've been hooked on Starr Hill Love from Charlottesville.

:D :D :D :D

If the SAT is asking about ox nards and Ralph Macchio, we as a society have bigger problems.

The period goes outside the parentheses. (Hey, if I can't correct punctuation in this thread, where can I?!; interrobang)

Ugh, the adjective "everyday" instead of the adverb "every day"? I cannot take your grammar lessons seriously, Lonely Island.

I think part of my fascination with Vathek stems from reading the 1928 edition with hilarious and dark illustrations by Mahlon Blaine (just google him). If you do read it, let me know! I've met exactly one other person I can discuss it with, and that was my adviser.

I dressed up as Triana last Halloween. She and Scully have been my favorite and most detail-oriented costumes ever.

I miss your old avatar. (And my mind boggles that I've spent so much time on this site that I miss people's old avatars.)

Please tell me you were in the Scriblerus Club.

If you like super weird Gothic-Oriental novels with sorcery, zombies, and homoerotic undertones, then most definitely. It's called Vathek.

Username: Character from an obscure 18th-century Gothic novel, which I covered in depth in my M.A. thesis.

Mitch makes it sound like they came up with Buster losing his hand on a whim. But there were hand jokes much earlier, right? Like "I never thought I'd miss a hand so much." Was that just a crazy coincidence? I wanted to believe they had every gag planned out years in advance.

THE A.V. CLUB: "I can't believe that anybody gives a shit."

Half of this is gibberish, and "Chevy" is spelled wrong.
