That's because you have a (well documented) genetic defect that makes it taste funny to you. You're basically broken. Blame your parents. Also "trendy" or not it's been a part of Mexican cooking for like forever. It's the places that don't use it you should be suspicious of.

He should have pretended to be allergic and sent it back, like certain dickheads I've met.

Yeah mermaids pretty clearly come from the "whales are demon fish" era.

The correct plurals are "octopuses" and "platypuses" because they've become English words and that's how you pluralize things in English. Anything else is just kinda misguided. "Cactus," on the other hand, actually is Latin so "cacti" at least makes sense. I still prefer "cactuses"  though and will fight anyone (like

Rabin was a good writer when he wanted to be, but his habit of prefacing every article with two paragraphs of self-indulgent musings is one thing about the old AVC I will never miss.

I think we really should be drawing the line between "show with music in it" and "Broadway musical." The latter, which this article and a bunch of posters are complaining about, is basically its own little genre within musical theater. Are there good broadway style musicals? Sure. But even the best of them tend to

Her head is to large to fit in the smaller frame of television.

The problem with mixed metaphors is they're a dead giveaway that the author hasn't thought their sentence through. Try visualizing an iron-clad, double-edged elevator. It's absurd.

Yeah, I love TV tropes for what it is, but trying to port their very specific jargon to other sites rarely works well.

There is that one scene where he turns out to be a tremendous badass and kills the dickhead who was trying to "rescue" Myrcella. Oh, and he sleeps with his axe.

Or maybe they figured Mel and Ygritte could fill the redhead quota without her.  Whatever the reason, she was a total non-character and killing her off was really good for the show.

No, the comic. Reading comprehension: not for everyone?

Until now, I've really enjoyed Ignatiy's reviews, but this one is a little embarrassing. Obviously he's way too much of a film wonk to suspend his disbelief, but what about the rest of us? A four paragraph review has no business wasting two paragraphs quibbling about camera specs.

Does Steve Buscemi count. It's not that he looks particularly scary most of the time. It's more like he's constantly on the lookout for predators. I think he mush have been a vole in a past life.

Well, I was four, at the time so my memory is a bit hazy, but as I recall, everyone was crazy about arranging colored blocks and it was considered normal to take a nap in the middle of the day.

If my friend's band wrote this song, I'd say "That was incredible, where'd you learn to play like that?" Or maybe, "Since when do you have a string section?"

Yeah it may sound cloying and insincere to a lot of people, but if you're ever having a really shitty day and it comes on, you just might end up crying like a baby.

I know people like to hate on their overplayed singles, but there are deep cuts (even from their "perfect" early run) that are worse. It's just that they tend to be bad-boring instead of bad-annoying and no one can remember their names.

Wow, I had no idea R.E.M.'s bad acting caused every copy of The Simpsons to crumble to dust while its broadcast collapsed into white noise and the faint sound of screaming, but you did say "literally" and no one would ever misuse that word.
