Homer: Lisa, stop pining for your saxophone.  I got you another instrument.
Lisa: (extreme disdain).  What, this jug?  POOT, POOT, POOT, POOT
Homer: Heehee! Heh heh heh! Whoaaa! Hyuuuh!
Lisa *stops*
Homer: LISA, NEVER, EVER STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF A HOEDOWN!

I also enjoy that it's not even a 1-800 number.  719! 719! 719!

Except Elliott Smith, despite being fucked up, still managed to be fairly prolific and there's some pretty decent music on his posthumous albums.  This one's scraping the bottom of the barrel just to pull off 45 minutes.  (I realize this last sentence is the original point that's being made, I just didn't think the…

My God, what a clench.  Disturbing.

The documentary's pretty awesome — I particularly liked some of the early footage included that I wouldn't have expected to see, especially the part where a teenage-ish Alex is sitting around with his family having the big "what are you going to do with your life" discussion.  Worked out okay for him in the end, I…

I still listen to him (Sirius is awesome for regular long car rides) and know quite a few other people that do that I'd say are not in the demographic one would expect to be Stern listeners.
I thought the Ratner interview was entertaining.  Sure, he came off as a monstrous douche, but hearing someone spout off who…

I remember being saddened by the news of MV's actual crapulence at the time. Thank fuck the early 90's happened to rid me of my own musical crapulence. (OR SO I WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE).

Also unrealized (…or at least, not conclusively proven): the rumoured mutual interest in man-on-man action between Michael and Kurt. That would have been an interesting sidenote to history

Love The Office, but I would say the show has overall probably run its course and I don't know if even the awesomeness of Will Arnett could save it. If it wasn't for the faux-documentary style, though, I might feel a little differently. Just want to see that addressed, dammit! [even though by now that concept is…

What, not that leathery skank on the far left? OOFAH

FIVE CENTS OFF WAX PAPER?!?

Discredit-Or: I really like 'Come Original' by 311 except for the faux rap section, which should probably cancel the like out. Fucking faux rap.

I recall wearing, as a female, guys' button-down 501s with (for lack of a better term as I'm not sure it exists) the "crotch-flap" cut off — the pinnacle of fashion. And also the overalls with the tiny shirts, floral dresses with Docs, and the bodysuits/jeans and whatnot. AND IT WAS GOOD. This provides no…

Faultless lyrics, for all fellow self-haters: Elliott Smith (all).

Yesterday, I woke up sucking a lemon

If 'Simon Birch' had been some random flick not based on Owen Meany, I probably would have tolerated it as a little cheesy, but almost watchable. But knowing that they took such an awesome book and shat it out into that is not to be borne. Although, I always did think it would have been a tough book to film, even if…

Yet another huge fan of this episode. Yeah, okay, the subplot was a little forced, but overall I thought the whole thing was awesome (although I was hoping to see the new credits again.) I never would've guessed the MSPC arc would go for as long as it has, or that I'd enjoy it so much. I really hope they handle the…
