I regularly take hot chicks' pulse from the thigh. YOW!!

I'll throw in my two cents… I agree with the reviewer. Billy Madison is an INSANE movie and I love that, but as a lead character and as a movie, I just found it a little TOO unhinged. Not that insane is bad, but my bias is that I dislike Sandler more the more he strays into silly voice territory. The Wedding Singer

I don't know how to do that.

Who wants to see my erection? It's big!

Don't you go changin'.

Wonderful book. The best childrens' book I've ever read, and I STILL enjoy reading it now at age 37.

I'm sorry, I'm prouder of getting up in the fucking morning and going to work than I think Diamond has any right to be for being Screech.

Atom Heart Mother at least has "Fat Old Sun" and "If", and I don't think either of those can be wholly discounted. The guitar solo on "Fat Old Sun" alone justifies much of that album for me.

He's not fit to bleach Horshack's asshole.

It's just so relentlessly dour. Here's my take on the issue: when I was in my teen years and crushingly depressed, it was one of my favorite albums. After I grew up a bit, shed some of that melodramatic teenage angst depression (trading it in for a more world-worn normal-person depression), I just couldn't stand it

I think the point is that you have to be something of a tool to get that high. He sold out his intelligence (which might potentially have made him a pretty effective detective) for political savvy. He knows how to play the game, which side his bread is buttered on, etc., and he succeeds.

"Watchmen". I've probably read that one over a dozen times.

I bet Breckin Meyer has mastered the art of producing "ass pennies", and that's how his short self stays "on top", figuratively speaking.

I once saw some movie with Esai Morales wherein someone had extremely bloody stigmata. They were showing it at a kids' party place.

I hated most of season 7, but I must admit the two-parter with Jena Malone where Kellerman returns and redeems himself was awesome.

The Robin Williams guest spot was awesome, and this comes from someone who hates Williams' schtick. But there was no schtick in that performance. I always found Homicide to be a master class in how directors can shape hacky actors into something better.

I'll actually come out and say I LOVE this show, but found nothing redeeming about the movie. Sure the Pembleton/Bayliss scene was awesome, ALL Pembleton/Bayliss scenes are awesome. But I preferred the ending to the show, when [SPOILER OBVIOUSLY SO SHUT UP] it was a little more ambiguous as to whether or not it was

Ladies of the AV Club, I AM the man who will do a threesome with you and your hot roommate. Please take note.

There was a potential threesome setup in How I Met Your Mother, but they played it safe by having the narrator never reveal if he went through with it. I just remember thinking it was funny because it was all supposed to be a story he was telling his pre-teen children.

As I often do, I think Miller's also onto something significant with his dichotomy between movies showing things at a specific time period vs. movies showing people looking back to that time period. They may both involve nostalgia, but one is showing you what specifically to feel nostalgic about, whereas the other is
