Have fun clearing that with the UN, Congress, your Presidential Cabinet, and the various political parties at play in Afganistan. It'll probably take years of diplomatic negotiations and identification of potential refugees before you can even start scaling down troop deployments.

"No, put me back on hold. I need that jazz."

Neil Diamond's first two albums forgive every mistake he's thought to have made since. Especially his second album, which is just wall-to-wall brilliant. Shit, "I'm A Believer" and "Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon" were on the same album! That's fucking crazy.

The Shining was also widely perceived as a failure at the time. Like most Kubrick movies, it only really got respect years later.

THAT'S who he is! That's been killing me the past couple of weeks.

I like this sentence because it makes me feel really, really good about my writing.

God, that's hot.

Remember when TV had funny and original content, not just endless, repetitive iterations of the same stupid, unfunny cliches?

It's Rick Rubin's fault. He couldn't even record Johnny Cash without getting massive sound clipping issues (see: the end of "Hurt"). He's a fucking menace.

Do you go to school in Liverpool or something?

From everything I've heard that's what he really wants to do but everyone in the pop scene refuses to work with him for some bizarre reason.

He's a professional, man.

I enjoyed Moulin Rouge for the sake of playing "spot that musical reference" but the rest of it was pretty meh. Romeo + Juliet is a lot of fun if you hate the play as much as I do.

@avclub-16db446cafb1ffb1466e71eaf97a4f49:disqus I find your interpretation of three sentences as "going off" as being absurdly oversensitive. I wasn't saying that you're an idiot for liking the Spin Doctors, I was just expressing why some people dislike 'fun' music.

@avclub-16db446cafb1ffb1466e71eaf97a4f49:disqus Me and my fellow Internet blog critics are pretty insufferable, so that's fair. I'll take prig as a compliment.
It's your own fault for expressing an opinion on the Internet. That's just asking for trouble.

It's an NBC show, so I'm sure it will all go up on Hulu. Just watch it there.

"I know what a prince and lover ought to be"

I can speak for a decent swath of internet pundits by saying that "fun" does not constitute good music. More often than not it's just incredibly irritating.

Thank you for proving that the word 'Russian' forces me to read everything in that glorious accent.

Where do sideburns fall in your little vendetta?
