I was raised not to shit where I eat.

Yeah. Does it mean that finding "her sit" would have made her a superhero?

Anyone else hoping it was Black Dynamite, only with Bamford playing the lead and everyone just going for it?

"basic cable primetime comedy series premiere"

OK, got it. Spending a year trying to bone someone you've never seen in person is a desperate cry for help.

Lately it seems only network is willing to put down a show, and even at this this year they waited as long as they have in a long while. I have to think it's just cheaper to get two years out of the sets, actors and back-end stuff even if the ratings aren't great. Or aren't even "okay". But other than Angel From Hell…

Plus, hell, some people are better online, even if you interact frequently. How many of the people on this site do you want going through your fridge?

The fact humans still exist demonstrates that actually very few first dates end in violent murder. Eh, maybe in New York. But not in most places.

When I was a kid and went on some salmon-fishing excursions, when you caught a dogfish it was like "fuck, not another one of these bastards" and then you'd beat it to death and throw it back in the water. So, I dunno, what Bart did to Edna when he never showed at the restaurant just to fuck with her?

Ugh; known too many people fixated on images they clung to as youths, sabotaging themselves forever chasing something that was never meant to be real. Even the rare times actually they get it only makes it worse.

I wonder if they take the cost of all that black ink out of his paycheck?

We read this book in grade school (or maybe it was read to us); it was my first big experience with a cop-out ending and that has resonated through the years.

"Write what you know" - even if it doesn't really appeal to anyone not like you, it's not like there's anything else different out there and besides, your friends will like it until they realize which character is based on them.

So what I'm getting is the whole thing is a downer misery fest and the big joke is that no, they aren't actually very interesting. They think they are and expected to be treated as such, and then retreat into drugs, alcohol and nostalgia when the world won't agree. I'm laughing already!

Huh; I figured hipsters were just nerds who had no interest in science. Both lost the dick contest to the jocks years ago.

Yeah, it's not like they had a big fight or had money issues or problems with extended family. He was just bored with her (and presumably her him); they both sound like real catches.

"This is the 60s; there's no getting a hand through a woman's hair."

Well, maybe the media buyers for big chains have no idea why vinyl is popular, assume its their parents getting nostalgic and… Styx?

The entire Atlantic seaboard, the west coat, Texas; that's a huge number of people. Even if you include Mexico and not the great lakes, 28% seems way too small.

While I get the hipsterrific reasons for buying vinyl and playing it for your easily-impressed, much younger girlfriend, the kinds of vinyl used in jukeboxes were cheapass singles, not to mention the sound quality of the machine awful. This sounds more like those guys trying to recreate Commodore 64s or Pong sets than…
