The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross

His treatment of LeMond was horrible (and Landis' team's actions were even worse), but nothing Lance has done is as bad as how he treated (and hasn't apologized for) Besty Andreu.

Armstrong may be the only person in pro sports who's a bigger asshole than Michael Jordan. Even in the height of his Tour wins and yellow bracelets on every wrist, Lance was barely more than a relentless win-at-all-costs machine. He has a "privileged frat boy" attitude, filtered through Stalinesque levels of

Raw Power reminds me of that Onion headline about people foolishly trying to make new art despite the fact that Megadeth's Rust In Peace already exists.

If god lives by one lesson, it's that it is better to be feared than loved.

So they recant. Boom, saved.

Susan St James and Jane Curtain? Sign me up!

Nah, you can't boil down a long-running show into one gag. You don't want to end up sounding like Seth McFarlane, do you?

Agreed. That show was amazing right out of the gate. You don't include a line like "a trick is something a whore does for money" in your pilot episode if your show isn't fully formed and brimming with confidence.

Even his quieter moments came off as hammy, possibly just due to splashback from all the times he went way over the top (call it the Adam West Effect.)

"Christ, what an asshole."

I think one of the Coens beat you to it.

I wasn't a huge fan of WoWS (and I'm an insane Scorsese fan) but DiCaprio was fantastic in it. His crawl to the car was Oscar-worthy all by itself.

Shit, I didn't get to see. Are there gifs???

Inarritu is a hack. In ten years, his wins will be punch lines of the same magnitude as "Crash."

To the Academy, "Best" is synonymous with "Most."

I've seen that angle mentioned a few times in comment sections or overheard at work/parties/etc but haven't done any digging myself. Do you know if there's a definitive article or interview published online about the subject?

Absofuckinloutely. It is, without exaggeration, a masterpiece. It's a cultural time capsule that strives to remain at a distance so as to let the various original broadcast footage really get in close to the story. I could watch it every day.

A recent ESPN headline read, "Josh Hamilton Gets Shot For Knee Problems"

We saw one of these around Christmas that had the blower turned up too high, and it was hilariously creepy (or creepily hilarious, either one.) The damned thing was standing up as straight as an oak tree, arms frozen in the "Y" formation and occasionally shifting slightly, like it was chained to a wall but only
