But, Heche, you be killed!! You didn't choose!!

Ghost, your tone irritates me. I don't give a shit how influential the album was or whether the songs fit within the very vaguely-defined genre known today as "rock" music. It ain't a ROCK AND ROLL album. That's not a criticism, it's a fact. I was responding to AJR's insinuation that if one wants to listen to…

Why "Crick-ettes?" Do they also market a line of larger cricket snacks?

This particular thread is exactly why the AVC must exist.

Hey, I didn't write the script, lex, so don't blame me. Blame those sitcom writers who are too lazy to do anything but latch on to tired ethnic stereotypes.

"Tuesday on FOX: Queen Latifah and Steven Weber star in a zany new comedy, 'My Ugandan Ex-Wife.' Watch and laugh as they discuss whether or not to mutilate the genitals of their pre-pubescent daughter.
