It was definitely responsible for my intense interest in Gwyneth Paltrow's thighs.

Truly an amazing story.  Thank you.

ZING!

I agree with this sentiment.  The first few times I read this kind of thing I chuckled.  The last eight million times I read it, I sighed.  Empty snark directionlessly sprayed all over everything is exhausting.

I'm sure he doesn't.  I'm also not sure what that has to do with this review of his new, very mediocre album.  Should we be grading on a curve now just because the artist in question deserved better than they got for their classic material, decades ago?  Are album reviews supposed to be basically a promotional service…

I'll just stamp the same four-word dismissal on this guy that my college roommate's dad used to dismiss Bob Saget: "Nice guy.  Not funny."

It's weird to throw those three guys in the same bag.  Mellencamp has become a complete hack (he was always a hack, actually, but at least had a few undeniable tunes; now it's been two meaty decades since he had one damn song I'd ever want to hear a second time).  Springsteen has certainly turned into self-important…

If anything it sharpens their point that they dodge the question of which party is actually in power, because as they are trying to argue, party affiliation is simply an extraneous detail pinned on the lapel of a bunch of people trying to out-game each other.

I like him on podcasts best now.  He used to be a fun columnist but it seems like his heart isn't in it anymore, so I'd rather hear something he's invested in.  When he does write a column lately it often seems a little tossed-off and self-plagiarizing (I know he has always beat his running jokes into the ground, but…

Interestingly, their review absolutely smokes this one, without being much more positive about the movie as a whole.  http://www.grantland.com/st…

You've been brainwashed by O'Neal.  If a joke is failing, you can't save it by adding who-gives-a-fuck-anyway meta humor.

Dozens more likes if you hadn't over-explained.  Tragic, really.

sigh

I was pretty careful not to use that word.

Same here - really disliked the ending, which was both predictable and kind of dumb, it seemed to me.  Promising movie but not one I'd be in a hurry to watch again.

Rammstein?  Rammstein is your shining example of what metal should be like?  Hmmph, indeed.

Before anyone asks, I have no opinion on this.

Which is in keeping with Ghost B.C.

That's a very elaborate "Friends" reference, neurozach.

And poof, Rabin disappeared in a puff of gay panic.
