First known use of the word "Latte" was in…1989? Really? That seems really new.

Fat, ugly and nearsighted - would not be picked first for the gene team.
I like how the full season review got an A- but all the episodic reviews get a B. I cranked through these 8 episodes over the weekend. It was fine but nothing special and has officially killed the joke. I think AV club thought it would get a lot more buzz and came out hot only to find people were sort of over it after…
I was really happy to see that mentioned as well. A great album from a prolific and enduring band. Made-Up Dreams never gets old.
Yes! I got sick of reading the hyperbolic hate. Working into a frenzy over Limp Bizkit and Smash Mouth albums from 20 years ago is a stretch. Even the writers wouldn't be so passionately disdainful of this music in a normal discussion but are forcibly drawing a line in the sand of what is good and what should be…
I spotted this dude also. Had to IMDB it up to confirm the Fincher connection and get the name…Holt McCallany. Which is a badass name.
I was on a flight with Alex Jones from Austin to Mexico last summer and I ended up seeing him a few times around Isla Mujeres including sitting right next to him for dinner one night. For a while after I regretted not getting in his face or something but in hindsight I am really glad I didn't fall into that trap. But…
Does the Shake-weight come with?
No that character in Fargo could not have grasped the D.E.N.N.I.S. system. He was at best Moving-in After Completion (M.A.C.).
It sort of seemed to have emerged as a national embodiment of crappy local sports-talk radio. Dumb jocks (or wannabe jocks rather) throwing out wild, unsupported claims just to drum up viewership. It was probably satiating the endless craving underemployed sports fans have for "news" and was cheap to produce but to me…
He was the "visionary" behind the incessant sports shouting shows on ESPN. Fox Sports was trying to go that direction (by acquiring much of the ex-ESPN talent). I hated it so I don't really have any respect for him but that was his special attraction for this network.
Figuratively using the word literally is a legitimate gripe. Pet peeve.
Yeah if Merriam-Webster has an entry as a noun I think you're up a creek sans paddle in this argument.
Umm, what are you talking about?
Stuck In the Middle With You - Stealers wheel
This kind of opens a can of worms for the era of one-hit wonders:
Semisonic - Closing Time
Spin Doctors - Two Princes
Fastball(OK 2 hits)
The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen
Marcy Playground - Sex & Candy
The Verve
…and so many more.
I rewatched the first day of camp again last month. So many good subtle jokes its worth going over again and again.
I totally considered cancelling my Netflix this week. No way now.
The prose in Californication are still the worst example of "art within art." As soon as he started reading his novels at length I tuned out of that show.
I feel it has always been a little slow, certainly in comparison to BB. I get the sense that the show isn't so much about build-up and climax within each episode like BB but more that the entire series is a build-up to the chaos of Walter White. Because we all know how this ends up the writers use that to draw our…
