I’ve said it a dozen times in the last year, but if you would have told me in, say, 2000 that Jimmy Kimmel would turn out to be a really thoughtful person whose biggest asset is empathy with the weak, I’d have thought you were a goddamn lunatic. I remember when I thought it was a serious character flaw that Sarah…

Remember when Netflix was the place you could get tons of movies you actually would watch, instead having nearly the identical catalog of a truck station pile of DVDs next to the puffy hats with filthy sayings?

Perhaps the interesting part of the story isn’t whether or not you personally care about the NRA appropriating the image of a fictional character, but whether the creators of that fictional character care, and their reaction in response to its appropriation?

Isn’t there a certain value in recognizing a terrible person being humiliated? It may not make me a great person, but in a world where the worst people imaginable are coming out on top, I like a reminder now and then that it isn’t always so.

Who knows what Alex Jones has him doing to earn that paycheck.

Oof, if he wasn’t such an irredeemably awful human being, this would be depressing. Imagine going from having the exact life you wanted as a high-profile gadfly, appearing around the country with a legion of young people howling for you, a book coming out and politically triumphant in nearly every respect to...this.…

So she’s Max Fischer from Rushmore.

I think you fundamentally misunderstand Morgan’s motive. Arguing with celebrities is the end for him, not the means. He’s first and foremost a sucker of famous dicks, so any interaction he gets with famous people is a win for him.

Billy Batts from Goodfellas would also have been acceptable.

Why doesn’t someone tell these doofuses who serve as Keepers of Football Knowledge (i.e. Polian, Lombardi, Gruden, Kiper, etc.) that instead of pretending that they’ve never been wrong or inconsistent about anything, it would be so much more interesting and informative if they would talk about what they were dead…

I think Mike Lombardi is football’s Bill Kristol. Polian is more like Lester Freamon from The Wire. Or maybe more like Buddy Garrity from FNL. Or maybe Lombardi is like Teen Wolf and Polian is like The Challenge.

You seem like a really chill dude with good opinions.

These people don’t share the same reality I do, and there’s no amount of argument that will bring them to change.

Kelly is the kind of critter that scares me the most.

This is going to be the solution that comes out of this. Trump is going to announce that he’s the only one brave enough to do what needs to be done and order billions of dollars for arming and training social studies and geometry teachers across the country. And half the country will fucking love it.

RIP Wally P. Doyle.

I had no idea that this was even a thing. After spending five minutes looking at the Bitch Media / Twitter foofaraw, I’ve decided that it can’t be real, and must be parody put out by some kind of alt-right shitposter who wants to make liberal snowflakes seem as ridiculous as possible. Because the alternative is too…

I think I may have been unclear about the auto-fellatio I was referring to. You couldn’t turn on NPR for a damn year around that season without hearing some nerd talk about it.

It should have a section compiling all the auto-fellatio that accompanied the newspaper season. If there is anything NPR and newspaper nerds loved more than talking about how, yes, journalists are the gritty backbone of any city, I haven’t seen it.

So...you prefer the music you were listening to in your formative years?
