"When we went out fishing I was the only one who caught a fish. You know my secret? Every time I'd bait my hook I'd lay down a phat beat…"

I would consider watching the show again if they introduced a character who was incredibly well-adjusted and undamaged.

A friend of mine was actually offered a part on that show. He opted instead for a part on a show about a Navy SEAL who becomes a secretary to make enough money to take care of his younger brother after their mother dies.

With apologies to Seinfeld Quote Generator - one of my favorite exchanges in the history of that show:

"You know, after all this time glowering and not speaking and wasting perfectly good silencers on target practice, I woke up this morning and decided that it's time to work toward a future! Toward regaining our - nay, everyone's! - humanity! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to open this cellar door without taking…

Also to quote Simpsons and make up hilarious…

It can be two people!

Obligatory, but always satisfying: WHERE'S FIREFLY??

They're treating it like bullying: harassment and assault.

I can't decide if it's more sad to have it memorized, or to have looked it up that fast because it's not memorized.

The school where I work is experiencing a rash of boys grabbing girls by the vagina in the halls. They're calling it "Trumping girls".

It's a fairytale invasion, isn't it? How's a fairytale invasion not somebody's fucking thing? How can all those bloodied canals and blown up bridges and bombed out streets and those churches, all that beautiful fucking WW II stuff, how can that not be somebody's fucking thing, eh?

Being a time of fear and division, the republic held an election and put a very bad man in to power. He built a galactic wall, endorsed xenophobia, emboldened the "White Humans First" movement.
