Yep, going right by the US Bank building, which you can clearly see in the film.

soothingly inoffensive
That is why I fucking hate The Eagles.
And it's SO goddamned easy. It takes me no effort whatsoever.

…my damies.

slanguage is a word that needs to die
much like guesstimate, irregardless, unthawed, prerecorded and the phrses "over exaggeration" and "I could care less"

Maybe it had to do with the fact that she made her corset super tight before killing her?
Mama was pissed.

Iroh's a big flirt, and June is an adult. How is it creepy?

Is it just me, or does she sound kinda like Lucy Lawless?

It's called Obliviate, dude.

Salve! And all hail to anyone out there teaching Latin (as long as you're not using those shitty Oxford comic book things), but I think THIS http://harrypotter.wikia.co… is the Agrippa they were talking about. But then, Ptolemy was also mentioned so…

I missed the swamp, but dug the red dragon Tolkien reference.
Was Peeves even in the movies?

Lunda understood people, especially Harry, better than anyone else. She was also the most patient and kind character (maybe) outside of Neville.

Banmar, that was Blaise you saw in the movie. I heard Goyle got caught toking so the actor wasn't allowed to return for the last movie.

Bee-Man?
There's a shitload of these at Gone & Forgotten, which was the subject of a TAL segment from their superhero episode (one of my favorite hours of radio ever).

Cookie Monster, you're words are as true today as they were in your time.

Exactly how was the giant nodding clown jack-in-the-box supposed to be less nightmare inducing than the big snake?
I kind of appreciated what Rowling was trying to do with SPEW if you see it not as taking Hermione down a peg but rather as commentary on inter-species relationships in fantasy. How far can you take…

He does too have other Tick powers!
He can jump really high and he's nigh invulnerable.

And yet the whole point of tragedy, classical Greek tragedy, is to depress the hell out of you, to bring you to a spiritual/emotional climax through sadness.
