all of this celebrity “getting in shape” stuff is such bullshit.

the only caveat is one of the advantages of freezing still liquid stuff is it can be flat and aid in space saving.

oops, didn’t realize. thanks

How in the hell is it possible that this nut with this history is still starring in an active major TV show and (at least so far) is the lead in an upcoming huge budget movie that is slated to be released?

I’m not certain that the correct take is that he is unnecessarily dragging on the Sandpiper case. My sense is they honestly feel Sandpiper should be paying more for what they have done. Of course there’s some motivated reasoning there, but I don’t think it’s anything dishonest or bad. I sense it’s more “reasonable

Disney is the perfect example of the downside of the democratization of information. Back in the 90's in the early days of the internet, if you did some decent research you really had a huge leg up on most visitors. You could come up with line avoidance techniques, touring strategies and great “secret” or “hidden”

anything in a state that didn’t already have a fair amount of gun control laws? It certainly changed nothing legally in any meaningful way

Been saying that since Sandy Hook. If the mass murder of preschoolers can’t result in the change to a SINGLE FUCKING LAW, then nothing will.

inconvenience? A small but real chance of death or terrible medical outcome? A weight gain of 40 pounds? Inability to take a number of medications to treat other medical conditions? Inability to eat or drink certain foods for 9 months? Seems more than an inconvenience and there is not doubt that some very large number

Riddle me this Batman. Imagine you suddenly woke up connected by arterial tubes to an “innocent person”. If those tubes are disconnected, that person dies. In addition, you have a very small, but real chance of serious complications including death or loss of an organ. In addition, guaranteed you will gain 20-50

The premise is flawed and a non sequitur

You need to have a GOP to English translation guide.

With all the talk about the great TV of the last 20 years, not enough is written about Deadwood. At worst, I put it on the top 3 of all time TV series.
And he was great in both his roles on it

NOTE-was corrected. Thank you! As a University of Penn graduate, this common error is grating as hell.

Factual error in the first sentence. She does NOT swim for “Penn State”. She is a student and athlete at the University of Pennsylvania, and completely different University hundreds of miles away from Penn State. Always annoying when those school are confused as they are VERY different institutions. 

The high point of Kurt Rambis’s career was when he was nearly decapitated by Kevin McHale. A great moment of my youth.

ASP does create an interesting universe of characters. You have to give her that. The side characters are invariably more interesting and rich than the main ones

Right. when they make missteps it’s because of what a sheltered upbringing their parents forced on them. If their parents had exposed them to more broad lifestyle, even those mistakes wouldn’t happen

well that’s somewhat my initial point. I (and you and many others) don’t seem to find her NEARLY as charming and wonderful as ASP and the show writers do. I think the pedestal that Lorelai was placed on in GG was repurposed and made 3 times as high for Midge. Lorelai was just the Queen of Stars Hollow, where Midge is
