Wait, maybe I missed something or all those celebrity magazines led me astray, but… I thought it was already confirmed that he's been having plenty of underage sex with some random fan chick.

@avclub-749a8e6c231831ef7756db230b4359c8:disqus : That seems more your perspective than Whedon's, though.  Any time a couple becomes happy in his universe, basically you know they're doomed.  It would seem stranger to have the one lesbian couple remain happy than for them to just go with the terrible, cruel flow.

Haiku time?

We can only hope.

Bieber's still a teenager.  Let's have them kill him instead.

That's perfect!  Think how difficult it would be for people to criticize the show, then, without anything to call it!

I hate myself for laughing at that joke.  Thank you for destroying any belief I might have had in my own compassion.

Catchy, isn't it?  It leaves you wondering "America's Next what?" and demanding that you satisfy your curiosity by tuning in to the show.

I definitely miss Twiggy.  She was such a sweet yet totally fair judge.

That's a way forward I can live with.  I think that might be the only way to really get their attention, anyway.

The frog's in the pot and the burner's been on low for years.  How close are we to frog stew now?

I guess I jumped the gun a bit by posting about the firings under the last episode.  Long post short: I think it was a pretty bad decision considering what's killing the show is not one of those three people.  I wish they would go back to the early days of ANTM, when it was less about what wacky hijinks Tyra could…

Not a theater example per se, but I went to a performance of Holst's The Planets a few years ago, and in the middle of Jupiter, at the most moving section of the entire piece, some old ladies were talking loudly behind me.  I wanted to leap over my seat and strangle them.  I too just sent them disapproving glances,…

Exactly.  Give the poor Internet a break for a little while; it sees too much of you as it is!

They already do it.  There's no point in appealing them by outright allowing them to do something that bothers so many other people.

Actually, aren't those the people we would want to keep around?  Because they're not the ones going into the theater and texting.

I like the Ring Pop better.  Diamonds don't really do much for the taste buds.

We all know that was reverse psychology bullshit.  You actually want us to ask you, right?

That's actually how I read it at first.  And it seems as likely to work as separate scripts.

Jack Black's slimmed up and Matthew McConaughey's looking kind of fem.  And the less said about Shirley MacLaine the better.
