Oh man…
…Pay It Forward was being worked on. This is like hearing that Cyberdyne is devoloping Skynet.

Oh, please. You guys seriously thought The Hater was a real person? What a preposterous individual that would be.

He's great on Howard Stern. Even if you don't care for Stern, search youtube for clips of his guest spots during the news segments or when he's doing a goofy bit like Dracula Gottfried. Great stuff.

"[W]e take our premises and put them out in the real world. People don't see the cameras, and we have our characters just be themselves.

I take umbrage
I will not allow another negative word to be written about Can't Hardly Wait. Is that clear?

Wow, this is some antebellum shit right here
Once upon a time a man named Keith Phipps and a man named Kevin Smith looked each other in the eye and found a kindred spirit. A congenial hour was spent sharing thoughts and sipping sparkling water. Were we ever that innocent? Were we ever that young? Was Kevin Smith ever

Wow, what a trip.
Now this is cool. I wish I'd been aware of AV Club's existence 13 years ago because this would have made my day. I miss Sleater-Kinney.
