On the one hand, yeah, it’s not unheard of for stand-ups to make shit up to get a laugh.

Thank you for crediting “the ocean” in that photo, AV Club. I was on the verge of going to IMDB.

I think that’s the Curious Oranj’s point: they’re not, but Assange is using his anti-establishment credentials as a kind of “they’re out to get me” shield against rape allegations.

The new Miriam Margoyles autobiography is here! The new Miriam Margoyles autobiography is here!

Bagsy the English language remake be about Maggie Thatcher.

At one point he’d offered his slice of the profits to the other creatives who worked on the adaptation, but “I no longer wish it to even be shared with them,” he tells The Telegraph. “I don’t really feel, with the recent films, that they have stood by what I assumed were their original principles.

If the state thinks you should be locked away for a good chunk of your life or even be…
