Jimmy goddamn Fallon is making fun of OTHER people for not being funny?

These laws are fucked and horrible, but I’m additionally disappointed that none of these politicians thought to make a “Life Is A Highway” joke.

I grew up in Maine at a time when the state was subsidizing the dairy industry by buying up their shitty cheese and dumping it into public schools. Every hot item was covered in plastic-y, gross cheese, it was awful.

MTV should bring back The State.

I have a friend who used to work on Tosh.0. He hated it so much, but like with Ridiculousness Comedy Central just kept going because it cost basically nothing to make. Thankfully he’s moved on to more fulfilling work.

Fetus in a Pan, new band name, called it.

Cash grab definitely wasn’t the right term in hindsight. I guess I was just trying to think of something derogatory to say as code for “who wanted this movie in the first place it was probably going to suck?”

Very good point. I guess really the most foolproof and also cost effective way to avoid this would just be a strict “no live ammo on set or you’re fired” rule. And damn, didn’t know that about Stahelski and Lee - I’m sure that has a huge influence.

Agreed. I haven’t seen Clone Wars or Rebels and didn’t feel like I was totally lost. Also, if Barsanti has a problem with someone going through an ancient temple to retrieve a mysterious orb, the importance of which isn’t explained until much later, he must’ve hated the first Guardians of the Galaxy.

I have no love for Baldwin, and Rust seems like a shameless cash grab, but whether or not he pulled the trigger shouldn’t be the point. The point is that it isn’t an actor’s responsibility to be checking the gun, there’s a person who’s job that is, and they didn’t do it, and shouldn’t have been fucking around with…

Do people really believe that 7 months in solitary is a place where he could iron out the many many wrinkles in some kind of reasonable way? How can you write up a 50 page plan (which, definitely not true) if you can’t research/get in touch with vendors, scout locations, contact potential musical acts, etc when you’re…

I feel like if you went to the first Fyre Festival, you pretty much had it coming. If you jump on board for round 2, you deserve everything coming your way.

No Barry?? And if you’re including Veep, where’s The Thick of It? Glad to see Patriot, though. The opening of the first episode hooked me immediately, very underrated show.

I originally saw it on CNN but can’t find the post now, but here’s an article that’s actually decently well sourced for Billboard https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/kid-rock-nashville-bar-serving-bud-light-dylan-mulvaney-controversy-1235370125/

Oh, I wasn’t talking about boycotts, those can be very effective. I meant specifically Kid Rock - it isn’t a boycott if you buy the product just to make a video of yourself destroying it.

This was always stupid posturing - his bar in Nashville never stopped serving Bud Light.

Ichi the Killer and Man Bites Dog also feel like snubs. Two movies I will never watch again.

I love Wet Hot (the scene where they “go to town” is supposedly my hometown in Maine. They didn’t actually film anything there...). Napoleon Dynamite is garbage. Can’t believe I’m saying this, but Heder is way better in Blades of Glory.

Conservative groups in my great home state of Maine have decided not to push for a referendum to block a new law expanding abortion access, and instead push to get their ilk into state legislature. They have all kinds of arguments, but the real motivation is very clear: they know that if it was up to popular vote, it…

My parents instilled an ethic in me from a very young age that if you start reading something, you finish it. Not really sure why, but to this day it’s very rare that I start a book and give up on it. I read Dracula in 5th grade and thought “this is so goddamn boring” but I kept going, had to finish. Then I got to…
