My in-laws do this, and it's annoying and confusing as hell. They're not even decorative towels, just towels. Why the hell do you put towels in the bathroom that you can't use?

'There's definitely more of it around now than there was, say, 5 years ago.'

Unless Aubrey Plaza figures out some new facial expressions and vocal intonations she's going to be stripping down repeatedly for a stupid sex thriller soon.

Jenny Slate does look really really good in Chipwrecked. So that's the best one. (Fortunately my kids grew up so I didn't need to see the fourth one.)

I'll raise that resounding meh to a resounding 'no'.

Searching Google Books, the earliest use of the phrase 'smile like you mean it' that it returns is from J. L. Nusser's 1957 novel The Scorpion Field. So it sounds like the Killers owe the Nusser estate a lifetime supply of orange chicken.

After Last Season is so bad and amateurish that a Rifftrax would be completely gratuitous.

'Michael Mann’s underappreciated Blackhat'

Yeah, I've been having trouble staying logged in all day.

There's also a new chance for Depeche Mode to disappoint us with their new album.

I'm not sure; her last album sounded to me like a pretty generic 'indie kids play with keyboards' record. I'm afraid the rot has set in. That said the fact that she's giving interviews to Guitar Worldmight be a good sign; she needs to go back to what she's good at.

I've read a couple of interviews with Eldritch lately where he actually sounds interested in music. I would not count out a surprise Sisters record this year.

'Sam Smith is good when he provides vocals for dance music'

This statement is correct if you replace 'Gorillaz' with 'The Residents'.

Another drawback is that people who hated Hillary because she was 'too clo$e to Wall $$$treet' will hate Booker for the same reason.

I don't see that at all (I'm also a gen-xer working in college admissions BTW), but I will say that in our current cultural moment 'disruption' is considered a positive trait in itself (no matter what the actual results or consequences), and it wouldn't shock me if some younger people were picking up on that and…

You are correct, Millennials are the first and only generation to do any of those things
