The wisest words anyone gave me in college: Cs get degrees.

My last company had a daytime thing in the banquet room at a local Maggiano's. My current company doesn't even do that, we have an offsite luncheon thing that's sort of half holiday party, half meeting. It sucks.

Oi this geezer rogered me lorry in the carpark at Tesco innit.

I love a good art house movie, too, but you're right about them often being heavy. I would think fun, well-made caper movies like the Ocean's franchise would be an attractive alternative to a dour Superman movie that needs to gross half a billion dollars to be considered a success, but what do I know.

"I think you'd dig Provo."

I didn't even mean to single out Captain America, I was just using it as a stand-in for my superhero fatigue. Scorcese is the only guy I can think of who still slots into this middle ground I'm thinking of, and even then, his movies aren't exactly family-friendly.

He got to be a big dumb ham, and it actually sorta worked for the movie.

Not everything has to be high art. I can enjoy an hour and a half of Brad Pitt and George Clooney being cool and charming.

I wish they made more movies like these. I know people complain about this all the time, but there's very little middle anymore. It's either arthouse or superheroes. I don't give a shit about Captain America and most of the small budget stuff comes and goes from the theater before I get a chance to see it.

"You find out that the dude in that hair piece the whole time? That’s Bruce Willis…the whole movie."

I was 15 the first time I saw Ocean's Eleven and even then I thought the Clooney vodka line was lame.

That's the Christian Bale one, right?

I heard it elsewhere and I'm sure it's been said a bunch, but he's a dork's idea of a cool guy. The leather jacket and his whole manner of speech, it's like a really lame facsimile of a "cool bad guy."

That's more or less what happened with me. I listened to Corolla and Bill Simmons, moved on to various Earwolf podcasts, then drifted off from there. A major inflection point was changing jobs, which meant I went from driving at least an hour each way to work to taking the train. I was able to trim the roster down a

Amber and Virgil are rotating but permanent members of the Chapo Security Council.

I got pretty burned out on the Earwolf/LA comedy podcast scene a year or two ago and never really looked back. I still listen to WTF if there's a good guest, but the rest of that stuff just got really old.

Cum Town is about to get even better now that they raised $5000 to kick Adam off the show.

I hope Caleb found happiness out from under the crushing assholedom of his dad.

Cum Town certainly is not for everyone and I can totally understand why people would loathe it, but it makes me laugh harder than anything else going.

I'm not gay, so I'm hardly the authority on this, but I would venture the gayest song is actually "Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy" by Queen.
