Well that or "Cat loves mouse. Mouse attempts to hit cat with brick. Dog attempts to arrest mouse."

She seems deadly serious. What's especially funny is to watch her try and set up loaded questions even to the people who she thinks are on her side, and when they answer with even the slightest bit of nuance, you can see her eyes flashing with rage. If it's acting, then Nancy Grace is Meryl Fucking Streep.

It is passable, until you find out that she's not wearing any makeup.

Now I desperately want Hannibal to say, "Ja, ja, make mit der artwork, I must get back to Dancecentrum in Stuttgart in time to see Kraftwerk."

One could've said the same thing about the pulps, but there was some good stuff that came out of those. And I don't think that real writing is in some kind of downward spiral. Amazing writers will still write amazing things, and they will still be published somewhere (in a lot of cases, even by the same publishing…

Well, the current publisher bought it because it was selling like crazy. The previous publisher was some virtual publishing company in Australia that was selling it as an e-book and print on demand. I wonder if it was even edited at that point, or if it has been since. It's sad that some standards are being lost, but…

Crwth?

Yup. I work for a company who has a lot of government contracting work, and other contracting work that has to go through government agencies. A lot of our peers have the day off, but not us, because productivity trumps employee satisfaction.

Paraphrasing:

I've never done that before in my life. What's it like?

Yeah, I want a resolution to that Billy Zane storyline where he… um….

There's an outside? What network is it on?

Hannibal being the Master Chef Junior of cannibalism.

Down with this sort of thing.

I'm glad to know that this is the one way to make comedy work

Andy doesn't even know if this pun was Goober bad.

That's definitely not true. Lots of people have had the Simpsons as a launching pad to bigger things (not necessarily bigger shows, but bigger jobs), Conan being the most notable, but also Mike Reiss, David Cohen, Greg Daniels. and Mike Scully, among others.
