And his sweater was on point too.

Yea I don't live in a big city. Even so, by and large you don't tend to see as many slender people in rural America.

She is, at least on the show, the most like what a really hot woman is in the Midwest: curvy in all the right ways, not exactly dumb but quite under educated, kind of trashy but not dirty. Picture her drinking Bud Light and chasing after guys who drive big ass bro-dozers and you will know what ladies in the mid west…

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I ask you this denizens of the comments: are novelty boxer shorts a deal-breaker? I say yes. They are the equivalent of getting into a woman's car and seeing that she has Tinkerbell seat covers and air fresheners and stickers: if she isn't borrowing her 16 year old daughter's car for whatever reason, it is to me…

So they want to eliminate the Jews…..of North Dakota? Pretty sure the nearest Jewish people to them might be in the Minneapolis/St. Paul region.

I knew Chevy and others like them were paying these country singers to shill trucks for them!

Eh, you didn't miss much.

"Has never read a book" I think that is literally impossible. An instruction manual for any consumer device could be construed as a book. I'm pretty sure that all schools on the planet make you read books whether or not you want to.

Well, I subscribed to Hulu finally, so I can now watch so many esoteric, independent and historically important films thanks to their having much of the Criterion collection available for streaming. Film snobbishness is mine for the taking.

I really hope beyond hope that the PM of New Zealand is actually anything like the PM on Flight of the Conchords.

Fuck off. Nerd People's Front; we're the People's front of the nerds

Good. I'm tired of such ridiculous pop culture send up's of "nerds": it isn't "quirky" or "nerdy" if a major cable network as well as the huge swaths of the internet that are not pornography are showcasing a thing. Liking LARP-ing or the Stars, both Trek and Wars, or any other niche activites are just a part of…

Only if he says the magic word.

In 17th century England pictures of people were incredibly expensive due to the fact they were in fact portraits hand painted by some bloke in a studio, paper to write a phrase onto then cut out and paste with was also pretty spendy; thus I submit to you that a copy and paste meme would have been financially out of…

I dig mid century modern, though it is almost always ridiculously overpriced. This is especially true here in the mid west where it never really took hold as it did in bigger cities. Thus mid century modernist items are kind of cultural (and literal) imports.

Sometimes I wonder where and how the idea of a guy being with a girl half his age being cool came into acceptibility.

I always liked the gag of the man describing things to a blind man in a wheelchair in a completely untrue sexual manner. He would describe a parade ass full of topless women

You know what; I'm OK with it. If I have to be part of a system in which every passing election sees us voting in a person of greater and greater wealth, a system in some ways similar to the procession of Roman emperors, fuck it. I'd rather vote for the guy who got high before a performance.

You know what is surprisingly good?
Tuna salad with cranberries.
