A few people nodding sagely, like they agree.

Hell is
Spending eternity in a room with Zahn's Treme character. Oh God.

JT can dance though. You can't autotune dance.

Pycelle's scene
Told us a lot we didn't know about Pycelle. Namely, that he's faking the hunchback and perhaps also how he see's his job.

I don't own a phone.

Deadwood.

I was actually more shocked that Ned caved than that they killed him. I thought his death was pretty heavily foreshadowed, and wasn't expecting a last minute rescue or anything. I was expecting him to face it with honor though. Like the old blind dude said, given a choice between honor and family…

Outkast's Hey Ya defines the 00s.

I love you, Fluttershy.

Wasn't Debbie Harry just Sophie Tucker for people too young to know any better?

Or put another way, nobody plays wow hardcore enough to raid with vent, but only does that for a single night in a year and then almost never even mentions wow when they hang out with their guildies.

He's not a liberal (modern US sense of the word) in the sense of being part of the intellectual left - in fact he can be plenty sexist and victim-blaming about poor people. It's the sort of politics that working class union folks go for, not all politically correct and intellectual but…

Trilobiter, great posts.

Ashley Judd
Is an amazing woman, I have a lot of respect for her.

Nothing to do with sports
My favorite case of movies re-writing history is Denzel Washington's character in Glory. In real life, during the charge on Fort Wagner depicted at the end of the film, William Harvey Carney was shot but kept charging, picked up the flag after the color sergeant was killed, and carried to the…

I watch this show
With the all important aid of a dvr, there's a lot of fluff (I really don't care about the inter-military dudes drama). But the challenges are great.

IRL, immunity generally sucks, and if so motivated prosecution lawyers can find a way around it. In the movies, it's like magic.
