You could kill someone handsome and then wear their face? I dunno, I get all my life advice from Hannibal Lecter.

He tweeted about socks being vulgar today.

"Faux News" has always seemed to me to be a particularly tired and lazy knock against Fox. You can say it's misleading, you can say it's muck raking, you can say it obliterates nuance and contradictory evidence, but, by god, it's still the news. It's just filtered through one of the most unabashedly biased lenses on…

Phew.

And thus the host divided into two sects: those who followed the belief that it was the name "Bob" that would lead them unto their villain, and those who followed the belief that it was the name "Frank" that would lead them unto their villain. And so the world was broken.

I just want to let you know, we're all counting on you.

Surely we should be looking for crew members named Frank, not Bob? Bob is the character. Frank is the actor.

That's my favorite line.

Oh, I really like her. There are a few stories where it's like, "wow, what the hell was that?" but for the most part, I'm quite taken with the work she does. Good writing goes a long way. About seven years ago, at the same time I was reading Runaway, I picked up the Best American Short Stories edition for that year…

I think I've read that Alice Munro story (I certainly own Runaway and read it cover to cover), but it's hard to remember since there's like a whole run of those stories about women from boring rural Canada having fairly fascinating (and sometimes, not fascinating) lives.

I feel like you can't really talk about romantic literature if you don't at least reference either Harlequin or Chuck Tingle.

Finally, some smut on the AV Club.

Matt Damon needs another house.

It's crazy that people don't understand this. Since the 70s, worker productivity has gone up 72%. Wages have gone up 9%. It's not just soldiers and EMTs who are getting screwed. Pretty much everyone in the US labor market is doing more work than their predecessors were and barely getting paid anything more than they…

Also, we'd have to put bumpers on all the Savage parts of Savage Love.

The "I don't have [insert benefit here] in my job, why should [insert profession which does have said benefit] have it?" argument is such crap. Because you didn't fight for it, dummy! What if, instead of dragging everyone down to the shitty level, we dragged everyone up to the good level?

"Hey, baby, can you come here and stick a finger in this plaster for a mold I'm making for…art purposes? No, not that one. No, not that one. Yeah, that one. Perfect, hold it there until the plaster sets."

I think it was just a cry for help.
