The truth is you probably learn everything you need to know by sixth grade. But school is about getting an education and those are two different things. One makes you a well-rounded worldly and knowledgeable (whether it sticks or not is another discussion). The other gets you by. I can feed myself by heating cans…

Okay. If that's what we're talking about I can cut these people a break. I watch ALOT of Food Network and my guilty pleasure is Worst Cooks in America because I like watching TV and yelling, "Where the hell did you people come from?"

Next thing they''ll be telling us it's possible to reseal an open box of Thin Mints. Sheesh, liberal science bias!

In Jimmy Fallon's defense, I despised him on Saturday Night Live (with the exception of The Barry Gibb Talk Show which is brilliant) but he's made an excellent talk show host. Apparently the trick is not making him the center of attention and getting celebrities to do stupid things.

It's also antiquated because most people use a debit card and the money is out of your account before you leave the register. If the money isn't there, it just gets declined and you know immediately.

I find this amazingly puzzling. When people say they can't cook what I hear is, "I can't follow a list of instructions."

Agreed. Now if you'll excuse me I need to take my vaccine-free children to deny climate change and protest equal rights because that's always worked in the past... at least I think so... I don't remember history.

I have a two year old and I asked my wife who taught her how to wear makeup and was shocked when she told me no one and that was fairly common among girls.

This is completely true. And don't repeat the joke for the person who showed up in the middle of it because it usually doesn't work.

But somehow Jimmy Fallon still managed to get The Tonight Show.

Perfectly fair and reasonable. Now if you'll excuse me I have to avoid reading the rest of this thread so I don't lose all hope for humanity.

I've read Bare Bones, a book of interviews by King. A lot of writers hit a stride and they're like a zombie (he uses this as a plot device in The Dark Half when George Stark takes over writing duties from Thad Beaumont). It isn't always an easy place to get to and when you get there, stay there. Don't be distracted…

I'll go you one better. They also said that Peggy Lee's greatest contributions were in music, not film, at which point her family were quick to point out that managed to include Aaliyah in the 2002 memorial, who had made the Jet Li movie Romeo Must Die (and that Queen of the Damned abortion which hadn't been released…

I once had a waitress ask me how I'd like my chicken cooked and I replied, "So it won't kill me."

"It's the shorter name for someone called Herbert."

How awesome would it be if the fanbase was made uncomfortable by the developer also including dudes with very thin, loose fitting pants, no underwear and the clear outline of massively thick three pound peni flopping side slide during gameplay?

Sweet Black Baby Jesus! I almost called it the nerdiest rape van I've ever seen and then got to the interior. Holy shit. I imagine that parked outside Comic-Con in 1982 and this guy getting all kinda action from various girls dressed as Orion slave girls.

That's what we have and the only regret is we bought a sectional so there is one end table. I end up setting my drinks on the floor and we've never has any accidents. I wish we had a sofa with a fold down drink holder/armrest. All the ones we saw were permanent and it made you feel like you were sitting in a really…

Thanks. I'll look into it. Hopefully it has timed settings.

I'm split on this. In a way it says no matter who you are we're all in this together and that builds camaraderie. The bosses I would do anything for were the ones that worked with me and stood next to me during the shit jobs, not the ones who said, "sucks to be you," and left me while they went home to their…
