Holy shit, there's a second season?

A friend of mine from the UK once told me, regarding Victoria Beckham, "that woman is NOT posh." I can't capitalize that word enough to recreate the emphasis she put on it. It was the only thing she ever had to say about Posh Spice.

Like a few folks here, i haven't had anything "tainted" by a failed relationship. The closest thing, I think, is the song "Can't You See" by the Marshall Tucker Band. I never thought much about the song before, but my last girlfriend put it on a mix for me. There are several songs on mixes she gave me that make me

But, what concrete advice do you offer? There's no guarantee that anything someone does will secure romantic favor he or she wants, and it's a mistake to suggest that there is. Sure, there are some things that will probably increase the likelihood, but it's a short hop from that kind of thinking to the entitlement

There's nothing about being yourself that suggests you can't improve yourself. You're the one implying that, and implying that "deserve" must have some karmic/justice component. If you're not successful romantically, it's because the people you're interested in aren't interested in you in that way, and that's really

The romantic success you "deserve" is what others are willing to give you, so being yourself gives others the chance to make that choice without deceit. Unless you've got some other criteria for deciding how much romantic success you "deserve."

Platitude or not, I think the real accomplishment of the "be yourself" advice is that you achieve the degree of romantic success you deserve, which may not be to your liking.

Not that you asked, but still my favorite movie of theirs (the Wachowski's not Tilly/Gershon.) Jupiter Ascending is second.

Of course, one reason it was gross was that it was Ross.

Yeah, but knowing them the countdown would start at 3,285 days.

A prequel called In the Beginning, made for TV, I think. Heigl played Romy and Alexandra Breckenridge (known to me from American Horror Story) was Michele. I remember it being not bad, but that's about all I remember about it.

True, but I can't watch this show (I've tried) so it's almost as if she's not working at all. The only way it would work is if I could watch the show, enjoy it for what it is (Hey, Poppy!) and then totally forget that I ever saw it.

Frozen should let it go.

"Put some boobs on it" Eugene, OR's attempt to compete with Portland's successful slogan "put a bird on it."

I can't believe there are no jokes (that I've noticed) about the phrase "Katy Perry intellectual property."

I don't know the merits of whether Love is talented or has taken all her good ideas from others, but the accusation isn't "inherently" sexist. If someone were to argue that Love being a woman and Cobain/Corgan being men were proof that she stole from them, that would be sexist.

Never seen this movie, but I remember reading the play when I was in college and really enjoying it. The movie is worthwhile? How different is it?

Damnit, I wasn't the first to notice that! I was stuck in a meeting all morning.

My wife wants to see this, for some reason (she has zero interest in sci-fi.) I'd suspect the words "Channing" and "Tatum" have something to do with it, but she's not expressed any interest in anything else he's done.

I'm sure one's reception of the Terminator movies is influenced by what one is looking for, but for me it's all about where I was in my life when I saw them. Terminator came out when I was 13 and it was pretty cool sci-fi. I actually liked the smaller scale, terrestrial setting, compared with a lot of the Star
