Lobster obviously does very little travelling. There are plenty of places where mental patients are cared for by the state. China is probably a good example of where he wouldn't have it so good, but it wouldn't surprise me if South Korea and any other developed nation could provide adequate facilities. Wait, you're

I'm a lawyer for real and I can affirm I have no idea what's going on. With anything, I just had pizza for breakfast. You're out of order! Objection! These are the facts!

I enjoyed "Bottle" quite a bit. I love the ending where the man accidentally breaks the glass again with his broom, thereby truly setting everything back to zero, and you can almost hear the little trumpet going 'waa-waaaa'.

"Build a castle to stay alive."

Love that line. Amnesia is my favorite album of his.

Liking Portlandia is entirely a matter of comedic taste. I grew up watching The Kids in the Hall and the humour really reminds me of that which is probably why I enjoy it. I think some of the sketches are misses but I probably laugh out loud while watching Portlandia more than I do most other comedies, and I'm happy

I've totally seen a real capybara in it's natural habitat. I didn't get a chance to eat it though because I was on a boat.

Redacted!!!!!

I thought it was all in the delivery, it made me laugh. Which is the opposite of the spin-offs, which are all done poorly.

Holy crap, give it up. Or spend all day crying about it. Whatever your pleasure.

BrockV needs to stop mewing on the message boards like a sad kitten. It's not like you were charged a dollar to read it.

This episode had a prime example early on of why the Simpsons sucks. We're watching a movie and then we pan back to see Home is watching it on the TV screen of the car in front of him. The old Simpsons would have let the joke stand, and moved on to the next thing. But new Simpsons has to have Marge say 'Homer, stop

I sort of thought she was consenting. And is it pedophilia if it's an octopus?

I am extremely shocked. You can usually count on Family Guy to pull off 2 of the following 4 jokes: rape, incest, pedophilia, and terminal illness. Often they do 3 for 4 and I've even seen them do all 4. Come to think of it I'm not sure if they did a single joke in any of those categories. Is Family Guy regressing?

I absolutely love Portland which might be why I like this show so much. I think I also like the show because it reminds me so much of Kids in the Hall with it's bizarre humour (which is probably not a coincidence since Lorne Michaels produced both). I will admit the skits have about a 50% success rate but I laugh out

Ah, the nerds above didn't really illuminate that. I wasn't sure if this was some crazy Charlie Kaufman thing where the creator of the cartoon had some kind of pyschic link or whatever that his own creations were trapped in. And who are Ray Thompson and John Stewart? It's all very confusing!

"The Justice Guild exists in an alternate dimension that the creators of the comic book had a subconscious psychic link to; what they thought was their imagination was actually the true story of a different universe."

You've got it wrong - people pretend to like Animal Collective to be hip, they slag the Simpsons because it actually sucks. I stopped watching around season 12 but have checked in for the occasional episode and it's simply true that the new episodes are unfunny and rely on slapstick instead of wit. The show has lost

It was pretty lazy. He has to take it slow, whatever that means, so he would rather go through the heart break of not having her at all. Huh?
