Did these impressions involve people snoring? Because that might've been a tip off.

This is an example of reading too much into something.

Maybe I'm misreading your comment, but I think Bill Cosby is on the short list of the funniest stand-up comedians of all time. He was a master at comedic timing, and unlike a surprising amount of well-regarded comedians (e.g., Bruce, Kinison, Hicks), the nature of his comedy was such that you could genuinely guffaw…

I have a soft spot for the Johnny Rivers cover, along with his cover of the Four Tops' "Baby I Need Your Loving." I would never ever claim his versions are better than the originals, but there are times when I'm in a mood where I prefer his covers — generally late at night when I'm sleepy. His own "Poor Side of Town"…

I wish I could forget. As an old school NWA/WCW wrestling fan, it was not a good period of pro wrestling.

I see the Spirit (an admittedly terrible move) as at least trying to do something that was visually interesting. I wouldn't go so far as to call it a noble failure, but I'd still but it above dull dreck like this.

Absolutely horrific. Like everyone else who witnessed that heinous atrocity, I cried myself to sleep that night, and every night for weeks thereafter.

There are some racist knuckledraggers, to be sure, but most of the comments I saw were from people who were insistent that the character should look exactly like he did in the comics. There's also those who thought it was terrible that Storm being a different race than his sister made their siblinghood not "real."

Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf never made an album like Exile on Main Street. I'm not knocking those guys AT ALL — I listen to Wolf more than the Stones at some points. But I'm just saying that there's a difference between being influenced by something and aping it.

Suggesting that a particular style of music belongs to a particular race, or that one race "stole" a genre from another is, to be charitable, a pretty silly notion.

I am not sure what I hate more — the last several minutes of "Knocking" or Derek and the Dominoes' "Layla." Both start off so great and end up something else.

I'm not sure how I feel about a Discus purge when the survivors include a poster that hates the Rolling Stones.

I remain convinced that once I reach middle age and have all the life experiences that precede it, I'll think Tunnel of Love is a great album as well.

I'll stipulate that "Nighttime at the Switching Yard" isn't Zevon's best song. But I love "Veracruz," "Tenderness on the Block," and of course "Lawyers…" as much as everything on Side One.

Yeah, but I don't think that Gallup poll proves that. "Do you approve/disapprove of interracial marriage?" is a different question than "Do you think interracial marriage should be illegal and criminalized?" For instance, I know many people who think marijuana use among adults should be legal, who also think it's a…

Yeah, but in fairness, there's a huge difference between thinking interracial marriage is a bad thing and thinking that it should be illegal and criminalized (which was the case in some states prior to the Supreme Court's ruling in Loving). Both are wrong, but one's wronger.

And another album I'm waiting for some concerned posters to refer to as "problematic" given the title track.

Brown Sugar has a great hook and evocative lyrics. That's enough for me.

I would think that was true about Alabama in 1975. I think in 2000, everyone in the legislature probably had just assumed the law had been rescinded years ago, just like that statute that was somehow still on the books from 1908 requiring an automobile driver to carry a lantern at night (there are lots of things…
