This whole situation is so bizarre. I keep waiting for Ashton Kutcher to come strutting in with his dopey smile.

While I'm sorry to hear about your family members, I'm a little confused as to why you're perplexed that people reacted negatively to your trolling. I mean, isn't that the point of trolling?

I started watching American Idol at some point to become more in touch with the common man.

I read this as "RIP Rip Torn". I don't know why…illiterate, I guess.

I worked in retail too, and always found every Christmas song that wasn't "Wonderful Christmastime" to be a welcome break.

Lennon - Across the Universe
McCartney - Your Mother Should Know
Harrison - Here Comes the Sun
Ringo - the only one I know that he wrote is Octopus' Garden…so Octopus' Garden

Yeah, I wonder how many people just chose Lennon because he's the messiah figure and how many people actually had really staunch, considered opinions.

I watched a little bit of that "Some Girls" video after doing a google search to see what you were talking about.

So this is Christmas is innocuous so long as you don't scrutinize it. Its melody is like elevator muzak and it's easy to ignore.

I hate So this is Christmas too, but it's not as bad as Wonderful Christmastime.

I remember liking the first season and then being thunderstruck at how awful it was in subsequent seasons. I too would have been 13 or 14 around that time, so I don't know if I was just coming into my own taste-wise or if the first season really was just much better than the following ones. I never revisited it to

I don't know if this is exactly a positive experience but…

Am I the only one kind of curious? I like the idea of a relatively minor incident spiraling out of control.

Maybe I just watched a dud of an episode. I'd say I'd watch more next time I happen to catch it on tv….but, yeah…..

I still love Taxi, Cheers, Seinfeld, Roseanne, What's Happening? and various other sitcoms from around that time.

I too would like to see some Game of Thrones-ish saga about Shining Force.

I don't know…even before all this Bill Cosby shit, I happened to catch an episode of the Cosby Show as an adult while in a doctor's office or something, and it did not hold up to my childhood memories at all. It was Everybody Loves Raymond levels of dull.

Honestly….yes. It helps that the only thing in my personal email account are notifications from amazon that my order has shipped because I don't use email to communicate with friends.

Jennifer Lawrence wasn't being a terrible person when she snapped some photos to send to her boyfriend.

I didn't care for "The Fappening" and I don't like the idea of people's SSNs and medical records being absconded, but I couldn't care less if some asshole's awkward and insensitive emails are broadcast to the world and I am willing to let myself be entertained by it.
