Female Protagonist
In a rom-com has a run in with some boorish/obnoxious man on the street, only to find out later that he is her new boss!

I'm pretty sure that is every episode of Fawlty Towers

"We can't take that chance"
"Why do you always say that, I want to take a chance"

And the slobs finaly showed those snobs! And in hilariously embarrasing fashion!

I'm a teacher, and I fucking hate all "inspirational teacher" movies. Give me Season 4 of The Wire, now THAT is teaching.

Actually, isn't the bigger problem that they all know each other? I mean this is basically an industry convention that we all watch. If you're an art director, and you worked with some dickhead of a cinemetographer in another film, you probably wouldn't vote for them if they made Lawrence of Fucking Arabia.

Most cities I know are overwhelmingly democratic because they are overwhelmingly black. Again, New York is the exception of American cities, not the rule.

How about the cliche here that all cities are New York. If you are comparing the cultural landscape of NY, Chicago or (as some one mentioned earlier) New Orleans to a random suburb, then yeah, cities have a very strong argument… but really does suburban Philly have less than say city-limits Charlotte or Cleveland?

Personally, I like the super video software they use.

But the Baby Boomers had monoculture, and YOU SHOULD WANT TO BE EXACTLY LIKE THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONLY GENERATION THAT MATTERS!

One of my favorite drinking games is to put on the modern rock station and drink every time they play a song that is older than 10 years old.

Pre-revolutionary France won our independence for us, all Post-Revolutionary France did for us was the Louisiana Purchase… and Post-Nepolean France only gives us is smelly guys with funny accents to make fun of.

Virgin Mobile
If you talk for less than 100 minutes a month, you'd be a fool to not have a virgin mobile phone.

Say What you will about MS
But they never engineered a situation where ALL third party apps must be bought through them.

Winamp

Clearly, Bush's course of action should have been to run to an Air Force Base, get into a fighter, and use his Texas Air National Guard skills to take out every airplane in the sky!

HIS FATHER IS THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY!

Hey man, we flew to the moon on Nazi technology. American inventors are best at finishing what other people start… See also Ford, Henry.

But O'Toole will win in back in a drinking contest.

It taught me that its only wrong for a cop to finger someone during a traffic stop if he's racist.
