Only as a middle name, with the first being "Manservant".

That's often assumed to be the case, but if you look at the data, Jennifer was already on the rise when Erich Segal wrote Love Story. It seems likely that his choosing the name for his character was a result, not a cause, of its surging popularity.

So you consider those to be variant spellings of the same name? Interesting. I know a lot of people pronounce them the same, but to me they're totally different names with different pronunciations.

Not saying that Kim never did it, but the one who famously rag-bombed a dude from the stage was Donita Sparks of L7.

This is the correct answer.

Once when I was a kid, we drove past a Stop & Shop at night and the S, h, and o on their sign had failed to illuminate, so it just said "Stop & p". My sister and I thought this was the most hilarious thing ever.

One time I was at Yaffa Café on St. Mark's and Jill Cunniff and Kate Schellenbach were at the next table. This was the mid-'90s, when they were at the peak (however modest) of their fame. I was eating an avocado salad and Jill asked me what it was and then ordered the same thing.

I only ever heard "Red Umbrella", but what a great track.

"Deep Shag" is my fave, but I'd pretty happily listen to any of their songs.

As the alien replacements are being born from the pods, the human originals become slowly dessicated and eventually crumble away to dust. There's an extended (and really gross) sequence of a replacement Sutherland emerging from its pod as the real Sutherland sleeps close by, his skin beginning to crack and wither.

Yeah, between this and Alien, poor Veronica Cartwright really got put through the wringer.But she's great in both—her reactions in the final scene of Body Snatchers and the chest-burster scene in Alien are a big part of why they've become so iconic.

They were showing this on Retroplex (I think) a few weeks back, and I was compelled to give it a rewatch. But when I knew the man-faced dog was coming, I had to get up and leave the room until it was over. The sheer wrongess of that thing is just so disturbing.

It was a convoluted process, but this comment led me to the realization that BJ and the Bear really should have been about gay dudes. It's all right there in the title!

I wouldn't expect breeders to know this, because we keep it very hush-hush, but there actually is a thing called peacocking. And if I told you any more, I'd have to run down to the store for some lube first.

Great. The title of this movie is going to make my mom cry about the wedding I'll never have. Again.

Oh my god I HATE YOU SO MUCH for reminding me of the existence of Vanessa Carlton.

Isn't crustiness more visual/tactile than olfactory? I'm not saying that odor can't be involved, but I don't think it's required. It's just, I don't think a smell test is likely to provide conclusive proof of the presence or absence of crust.

Second best, after the final scene, but that's just nitpicking. It's an amazing, beautiful scene.

It really is one of the best finales ever. In an earlier review Todd talked about Lindsay’s time with the freaks as though it were merely a phase, something she would leave behind as she eventually returned to the path she’d previously been on. I argued that she’d undergone a more fundamental change, that the arc of

As an ugly crier myself, I've always appreciated her willingness to look gross while crying, which she seems to be called upon to do quite frequently.
