What I want to know is, does a pizza get put on the turntable? 

Hey now, Mr. and Mrs. Flame are fine, upstanding people. 

herp derp. Fixing that. sorry. 

probably that there is no room for uncloseted gays in this competition.

Just curious: did anybody else see Creighton's performance as a "message" as I did or did I just read way too much into that? 

Shy Ronnie!! That's perfect.

I think people like Phil because by Idol standards, he's an 'alternative' cutie (read: thin and white with a guitar)

Those Old Spice ads are so ridiculous. I love seeing them as the bizarro version of the Isaiah Mustafa ones.

I LOVE him. You can totally see how he'd be the world's most annoying little brother. That's some good TV.

Yeah I feel like that movie could have been boiled down to a Tweet: "Everyone thinks their era is boring."

he's the most likable Woody Allen I've ever seen.

I watched "Midnight in Paris," which was cute, I guess, but didn't felt like an extremely substantive movie. I've been DVR-ing "30 for 30" and the one about the Pacers/Knicks rivalry came and I got 75% of the way through it and decided I needed to make my husband watch it with me, since it's so fun, so I basically
