Man, I've never even heard of it.

Sean Levy's book about the Rat Pack is worth reading, too. Hell, he's just about the only writer in the local paper who's worth reading. The Oregonian is abysmally bad.

Hell, "Fred" has Jerry Lewis as a comic antecedent.

True enough. But there's this certain predictability to the type of person that will be this way, and how they express it. I mean literally quoting most of an episode of a show I've never seen at me, hoping that will improve my opinion of it. What the hell?

To a 't', eh? Like some sort of Model of Ford? You don't fool me, Idiotking.

There's lots of people who thought that they could write just like Douglas Adams too, if they went off on lots of whimsical tangents and allowed themselves the freedom to name their characters ridiculous-sounding things.
And they ended up being annoying, not funny and not interesting. It's another problem with anything…

"And she guzzled yer custard, didn't she?"
Well, I gotta see this movie now.

"Helpless anglophiles"
Even though I myself will sometimes tell people I don't like to "go stick (their) head in a pig," I hear ya' about not becoming That Guy. People who will utterly ruin Monty Python (specifically The Holy Grail) long before you ever get to experience it for yourself, people who -if you happen to…

And forgotten-even-in-his-own-day Steady Rollin' Dave Wimberg somehow managed to spawn -2 children, to the delight and confusion of geneticists everywhere.

And not a single Patch The Pony biopic yet!

"I think I heard a pop!"

Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here!, and the sequel, "Tell Them Willie Boy Is Still Here, and Is Getting A Bit Tired of Waiting."

How can we be watching this movie when we should be out protesting the Vietnam War?

Charlyne Yi's plane was shot down over the Sea of Japan…It spun in…there were no unspeakably twee survivors…

Great album. Almost no missteps.
Matter o' fact, the only song I see as a misstep -"Emulsified"- reminds me a lot of the pink anaconda circus peanut hell portal thing in the picture up there.

Pardon me: are both of you joking? Again, I've never seen the show.

I too am tired of having to look at stupid things every time I come here. That is all.

"Firestone" is fucking great, and I still ask for an "alcohol cocktail" once in a while if only for the greatness that is "My Manuscript." Hell, "Don's Story" is awesome too: why the hell don't people like his fiction?

It took me several years of no longer living in Olympia to see the greatness of some of the riot grrl bands: they were such shit human beings to actually live around, it more or less spawned a boycott among the more reasonable folk.

Hey, former Seattle teen: remember "The Lame List" from 'Almost Live'? In which "Seattle's Heavy Metal Community" was asked to comment on current events and great issues? Mostly people from the bands we're discussing here, of course; Kim Thayil was in almost all those segments.
