I listened to the WTF podcast with Dave Foley a couple years ago (saddest sack interview in the world, don't listen if you're unprepared) and based on the way he described MRAs, I was all "Heck yeah!" on board with it. That was before I started hearing about MRAs on Jezebel. Maybe it's the pitch?

A lot of places don't have mom and pop restaurants anymore.

That's what they should call ultrabooks. Rebrand them as skinny computers.

Hears Olive Garden is "too fancy"

I want to go to there.

I'm from rural Ohio, but I get the sentiment. I was once publicly chastised for "putting on airs" because I accidentally let it slip that I spent $100 on a dress.

As Ze Frank taught us, don't yuck someone's yum.

Yep. I used to think I liked Quiznos, but I don't. I just liked one certain guy's Quiznos location.

No mentions of "normaling" from 30 Rock?

You just blew my mind.

Ooh! I just watched this one last night! It's called "Icarus" and I think it's on Hulu now.

They'd be rich if it weren't for us dirty Jews keeping them down all the time!

"It's like if someone constructed a sandwich out of condensed apathy." HAHAHA I love it.

PREACH.

I see all these parents my mom's age who are befuddled that their adult children want nothing to do with them. Invariably they were very strict parents who beat the crap out of their kids when they were young, so those kids got the heck out of Dodge as soon as they were old enough, and never looked back.

I am envisioning the dresses the wives on the compound wear in Big Love (and/or real life).

Your Jesus Camp sounds like a rager compared to the one I went to once. ONCE.

Before Jell-O, it would have been a major undertaking to make those gelatins/aspics, because you'd literally have to start by boiling hooves and such, and only wealthy people with a cooking staff could have had it. I think the explosion of the trend was the result of middle-class people trying to achieve that…
