Stewart is a terrible interviewer.  No matter how interesting his guest might be, I just don't even watch the interview segments anymore.

I agree about Jessica Williams.  Normally it takes me a while to warm up to new correspondents, but I liked her a lot from the start.

This is my favorite John Oliver moment:

Yeah, I was just thinking, "But I thought Costco was the 'blue-state' (read: 'thinner') way to buy junk food in bulk…"  Then I remembered that I was at a Costco this past weekend, and I am definitely not a healthy body weight, so I think I proved @avclub-f7f8eb12e0f61a9321597157c0d61791:disqus 's point.

I tried to read it when I was a pre-teen and just didn't get into it, so I never finished it.  We should start a club!

Me too, and I always felt really weird about doing it in any of the houseowners' families' beds.  So unless there was a guest room I could sleep in, I'd sleep on a couch… which is so much better?  In hindsight, I can't say this logic makes any sense.

Damn, that's making me cringe, Smacky.  It's so weird how childhood transgressions can be so incredibly uncomfortable to look back on.  There's plenty of dumb shit I've done as an adult that had actual repercussions on my life, but if I had a magic monkey paw that would let me go back and undo one thing in my life,…

@avclub-011d0b4fe6835bb3d37ef4e0ea713de6:disqus Heh.  To be fair to the woman who smushed them with her truck, it was dark out and she couldn't really know they were there.  She felt terrible, needless to say.  That's how I know she's not reading this — because no one's shared a story about running over her daughter's…

What a drag!  @avclub-4b0732dd2e072509479e21645ba653b3:disqus makes a good point, though — google is an infinitely useful tool when struggling with Excel.  I'm able to pass as Excel proficient in my office just because I'm quick with the googling when things aren't working out.

I'm pretty chill about germs, but my sister, Hugs and Hisses, is definitely borderline germaphobic.  She was perfectly normal before going to college in NYC, but then suddenly it was all, "no clothes that have been outside in the filth of the city can touch the surfaces of things in the dorm room".  And now she works…

My mom was my Brownie troop leader when I was 6 or 7, and she had all the other Brownie mothers over to our house one day.  We had two new little 8-week-old kittens at the time, and they decided that a fabulous kitten hang-out spot would be sitting on top of one of the tires on one of the mothers' truck.  The…

I ran over a bunny once, and it got stuck on the front of my car so I dragged it about a block before it fell off.  My sister and I happened to work at the same place at the time, only my shift started an hour before hers.  So later in the day she came up to me in the office and was all, "Holy crap, did you see that…

Such a good singalong shuffle!

I would never have felt guilty about that, because that would have been hilarious. 

Oof, that's a heavy one, Lurky.  I'm so sorry.

Oh my god, that's awful!  All of it!

Happy (upcoming) birthday!

@avclub-f7f8eb12e0f61a9321597157c0d61791:disqus Yeah, there's nothing ladylike about getting the peach into a state where it can be eaten all ladylike, that's for sure.  @avclub-7dc8b441cf4e6fe9bc806679c4579e68:disqus has just blown my mind with this whole "boiling water" trick.  Even though that's how I peel peaches…

I once had a lemonade stand, and coincidentally there was some kind of crew doing something to my house (this was when I was a kid — were they roofing?  I have no idea).  So the contractor paid me in advance for me to give glasses of lemonade to his whole crew.  And I never gave them the lemonade.

I can't like this enough.  30s are awesome.
