At least they don't put each entry on a separate page with a autoplay ad. At least that.

The description of the band didn't exactly inspire me to find out more.

In the pre-Internet days, a friend told me Phil Collins' "Sussudio" was inspired by the sound of hitting toms on electronic drums. I never bothered to look it up.

A chorus for the watersports enthusiasts:

The sexual lion was out? ROFL!

I always imagined him as Tom Selleck, but that's when I was actually reading it. Selleck is too old now and looks weird without his mustache — which Bruce Wayne shaves early on.

I'm surprised they needed to cast anyone as Groot. Now I need to look up Lord of the Rings on IMDB and see who played the Ents who had lines.

It's stated in this article that Henley didn't write Boys of Summer, but the song is credited to Mike Campbell and Don Henley. Is it generally accepted that Henley added a few lyrics and forced his way into the credits because of his stature in the industry?

You're still confused.

Because they offered him free beer and taxi fare to and from the gig?

I think all comedians should have a Gibson Les Paul and a Marshall stack under a black cloth. If they are bombing because of hecklers yelling obscenities, just whip out the guitar and play the opening riff of "Smoke on the Water" until your time is up. Contractual obligation filled!

Personally, I make a big distinction between an audience getting bored of a shitty performer and starting to yell stuff and some table full of assholes who are getting drunk and yelling shit just to yell shit. They may be the "funny guy" down at the tire factory, but I didn't pay to hear their bullshit — especially if

Hecklers don't even have the guts to bomb at open mic night. They sit in the dark and yell random shit. I've seen comedians thrown off by it and I've seen comedians shut them down, and I agree there is no getting rid of them, but hecklers, to me, are pathetic cowards.

AV Club is getting scooped by Deadspin a couple times over the weekend. Guess you guys need to add a weekend shift.

I used to teach English and I made my students listen to "Wuthering Heights" by Kate Bush. I bet they hate me for that.

All that Canadian Club he has to drink to prepare to be Don Draper has taken its toll.

I really want to take this class, but I worry that the professor will not have enough time to meet with me and discuss my personal problems.

Everyone knows his tiny little penis would not satisfy a woman like Maggie!
