Perhaps they did a better job of hiding the dog penis in the later films.

The smart breeds tend to also be the most athletic: collies, poodles, German shepherds.

That came out in summer of '95. I was in 6th grade 94-95. We must have read it just months before the Bacall one came out. I'm not sure if that was on purpose or not. We read a whole string of Newbery award winners in 6th grade, so it may have been a coincidence.

I just did a little Wiki-wormholing (wait, that's terrible)… digging on Wikipedia and had no idea that was Ingrid Bergman and Madeline Khan in the original movie adaptation. We definitely watched that one in sixth grade after reading the book.

At my high school the band members were the cool guys because the sports teams sucked. No one went to the football games to watch the fucking Redhawks lose again.

Okay, so longish story.
Every band trip we went on, we (and by we I mean people cooler than me) would come up with some stupid chant related to it. For the Orange Bowl we had a call and respond chant based on each of the four "pop stars" that were playing. There was Leanne Womack who had that "I Hope You Dance" song,

I hope the remix does to most people what it did for me. Make you aware of the original and then go listen to that instead.

So that's why I see the ghost of a large black man any time I sing along to the hook of "Hypnotize."

I agree 100%

I agree 100%.

Luis Fonsi has been around since at least 2000, because my high school marching band performed in that years' (well technically 2001's) Orange Bowl half-time show backing him up.

First time I heard this song I really liked most of it, except for the English part.

This is based on the assumption the AV Club will still have original content in 2019.

When he's feeling blue, he likes to put on a playlist of his own slow jams, ease into a bubble bath, pour a glass of champagne, and read the gangbang scene over and over.

I was around 11 when all that went down and I'm always shocked at how relatively little time that all took. As a kid it felt like years and years.

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

I'll always love the sketch where he's using the telestrator for Monday Night Football, and his patterns very clear spell out "I did it" much to the other commentators' horror. I'm pretty sure David Koechner was Ditka in that one.

Aren't there rumors he's the real father of one of them?

I'm a therapist so I'm trained to think this way. If someone came to me with severe depression and then said that they were an NFL running back for a decade, I'd be referring them to a neurologist, because if there's a physical component to what's happening, psychotherapy can only take a person so far.

It'd be an explanation, not an excuse.
