To Kill a Mockingbird was her only novel, as far as I am concerned.

Anyone interested in the era should check out Please Kill Me— it's a great read.

I actually like CRJ's voice. Shame it's invariably lost in the synthetic pop homogenizer that makes so much of current music all but unlistenable.

Some idiot has to point out that they did not burn witches in the New World, and it looks like it's me.

You can't be referring to me— I've never met you.

That was the World War Z approach, and I agree that it would be more interesting to tell different story arcs, with distinct narratives and different outcomes, depending on the situation.

Wow— looking at the lead picture, she isn't nearly as pretty as I expected.

This is an ironic place to say this, but censorship can be good for art in some ways— it can force artists to be more subtle and creative in critiquing sacred cows and the powers that be. Not sure that applies to Adam Sandler, though.

"Stay away from Talos IV, Pike!"

If it doesn't have the Bis theme song, I'm out.

So, Jimmy, that's how the Persians turned into Iranians— they stopped drinking.

The lead picture looks soooo familiar, and I vaguely remember seeing it and thinking that it was the dumbest movie ever. It looked cool enough (especially the shades and overcoat combo), but the plot and acting didn't come close to matching some of the visuals. But looking around the 'net, it might have been Teenage…

I have an irrational fear of Syrian children. I trace it back to a terrible reality show that was called the Republican Nomination Process, or something like that.

The selling of Marco Rubio: Marcotrafficking.

This is just public posturing. In private, they are currently in difficult and sensitive negotiations over the catering budget.

Or Notre Dame.

Your lousy attitude is exactly why we don't want to admit any more foreign refugees into this great country.

It was just a reflexive PC response to avoid giving any possible offense to the Irish, a group that could give a flying shamrock about that stuff. Possibly because they all drink too much to notice.

They might have succeeded in infesting the rest of the country, but they failed miserably at my house. I like to think that had something to do with their eventual retreat back to their native Munchausenland, although they did manage to take America's last budget surplus with them when they left.

It was just your basic standard-issue, condescending snob response to your obviously smart-alecky comment.
