I knew what was going to happen when I pressed Play, and I pressed Play anyway. Why? What is wrong with me?

If that show was on TV today, it'd be a hit. It was way ahead of its time.

I have never forgiven the TV networks or the universe at large for the cancellation of Andy Richter Controls The Universe.

I'd like to thank Jezebel for reliably producing stories like this whenever I start to feel bad about being single.

Well if you look at how long it took for gay characters to start being portrayed as people and not just Wills or Jacks, we're making pretty good time.

I think we would be friends if we worked together. I like people who don't toe the bullshit line.

OK that's a relief. I was really freaking out that CA had a law at all, even one that wasn't enforced.

I never actually read any of Neil's work until much much later, and when I did I was like, "Ohhhhhh. Yeah, that makes sense."

You could just not file the dodgy, likely-unenforceable trademark of a phrase that has been in common usage since before Taylor Swift was born in the first place. That's something you could do.

Couldn't you license it to the little Etsy shop for like $1, though, and still be able to protect your mark?

You did the right thing. I'd do that today.

Little Earthquakes was the first time I ever consciously realized that I related to being a girl in a way that went waaaaaaaay beyond the way most boys could, much more than I related to being a boy, decades before I ever heard the term "genderqueer". It was and remains one of the most formative influences in my life.

Smarter for so many reasons. Even if it doesn't get to the wrong recipient, there are some things you just don't want anyone to be able to prove you said.

The only thing I will miss is Winston trying to make the "Classic Winston/Coach Mess-Around" happen.

Seems like a bad move, considering this movie's opening-day box office revenue will also be its total box office revenue.

I have received such an email. I was more offended by her poor understanding of email than I was by her shit-talking.

Maybe it's because I live in L.A., but the Winston Is A Cop storyline is not working for me at all. I could see Winston as a sheriff's deputy in Mayberry, but in the LAPD? He's too nice, too sweet, and too goofy to last more than a day.

Still though.

They'd know it was me. I'm that buzzkill in the office who's always caring about stuff.

I'm gonna go ahead and not look at that picture.
