My Sedaris one hit is Naked. It is the first one I read. I really enjoyed it and then when I tried to read Me Talk Pretty it was just too much of the same thing. Moments of genius to be sure but I'm not all that intrigued to continue.

People are forced to read that? They made me read Silas Marner.

Wife started watching Pretty Little Liars. There are something like 15 books in that series and it is still going! Convenient too since apparently it is easier to name the brands they wear and consume than it is to secure rights to use them in a visual medium. As an aside the show drives me nuts… character names are…

In her defense she was probably *really* fucked up.

Convenience of not having to dig out a dvd and the ability to share means I'll cut the internet some slack on this one.

Cue car chase at the 28 minute mark, song at the 35 minute mark and wrap it up just after the false ending.

He's in a label-mandated "expand your fanbase" phase. He'll get some misdemeanors under his belt, maybe some minor prison time and then he'll be ready for the next phase of his career. Like some really annoying and stupid butterfly. If he was female he'd be making sex tapes or working a pole somewhere to prove he was…

Some guy in a minivan in Stratford Ontario is not "paparazzi".

That song is great lines and observances wall to wall. With "But you know I predicted it, I knew He had to fall
How did it happen? I hope His suffering was small
Tell me every detail, I've got to know it all
And do you have a picture of the pain?" He summed up current television news and reality tv 47 years ago.

Phil Ochs - Crucifixion.
For Springsteen I'd go with The River (the song). That is a hell of a song and the reason I gave the guy half a chance.

Gentlemen….

Ugh. We finally get a song which isn't an easy target and already hated by tons of people and we get this idiot to try to bumble out a half-assed reason why it should be hated. Next episode we'll be back to shit like "My heart will go on".

So if Christian White is the good guy will we see an appearance by Swarthy Brown in the role of the mustache-twisting villain who is trying to destroy Christmas?

This works out perfectly for Brown. He didn't get shot and his PR can make him out to be the intended target which will bolster the tough guy image he is trying to cultivate after the bowties and sweater vests didn't make him America's sweetheart. Maybe he'll go for an astronaut or hippy phase next.

I've always felt that the Coen movies feel small (or compact if that sounds negative). Blood Meridian is not small. I don't think they could do it. It might guarantee John Goodman as Judge Holden if they did though so there's that…

An 8 foot tall, hairless Cera would be the most awkward thing imaginable.

Hit the lights too. Ah the 80s. Metal songs about going to watch metal shows.

Interesting that they mention the Ark of the Covenant as well because Indiana Jones was also featured in a fucking terrible game for the 2600. I owned that and E.T for some reason…

Wouldn't that needlessly complicate things though? If Jon is from that line wouldn't that make him the king? Don't you renounce title when joining the watch? Wouldn't we then have to put up with that actor and his one trick pony of emotions for an even larger role in the story.

There are like 100 years of Spider-Man comics out there. This shit writes itself. Worst thing about this is that any lapse in output will lead them to fill half the next one with the origin story once again as though there is anyone alive that doesn't know how Spider-Man came to be. Story is up there with Superman and…
