It is. 10:00 is the line.

I'm gay and it wasn't homophobic. Nearly all the "outrage" is from conservatives grasping at straws.

There are stories of Nazis going around wearing little clothing in the eastern territories they conquered. I imagine the psychology is about the same.

And there was also stuff like Playwrights Theater, when they actually had arts programming.

The not-too-distant future: "Hey, did you see that article on The AV Club?" "No, AV Club's on the Verizon internet. I'm on Comcast."

The ball's in play more in a baseball game than in a football game. Look it up.
