You may be depressed and unable to get out of bed, but the fact that you used a picture from my all-time favorite musical has me on cloud nine. Seriously, how can anyone look at that picture and not smile?

Contrary to what you appear to think, that was not an attack against you. Perhaps you have not participated in discussions where the murder rate in Chicago inevitably comes up, regardless of its direct applicability. It has reached Godwin-like proportions in any discussion regarding gun control. Now it is appearing…

I think that we need a new Godwin’s Law for bringing the murder rate in Chicago into a discussion that has nothing to do with the murder rate in Chicago. I hereby dub it:

My twentysomething nephew looked at a used Aston Martin and had to let it go when the insurance company quoted him $2000 a month.

I stayed on the $10 employee plan from Sprint for nearly two years after I quit working for the company that offered it. They never checked up on it for that whole time.

As a Vikings fan, I do have a dog in this hunt. But strangely enough, watching that play in real time on Sunday, at first I thought that Bridgewater was acting to help draw a penalty. But then they showed the replay, and not only was there no question that Bridgewater was out colder than an Eskimo Pie, but there was…

Well, I was older than that, but I still have not seen it since then, so my own memory is shaky. I just known that I definitely saw it on either Carson or Letterman, and when I did, it seemed unfamiliar.

I just cannot remember it from Raw, and I assume that the version he did on Carson/Letterman was a bit different. As I remember it, he said that the car would have done something like this:

A little help here.

If I get rid of my friends who think that way, then I will still be confronted daily by strangers doing the same thing. There is no escaping it.

Many of my arch-conservative friends keep complaining about the “liberal” media falsely attacking Carson, while simultaneously complaining about how that same supposedly liberal media always giving Clinton a free pass. Reality. What a concept.

Now we know why the U.S. government kept Guantanamo open.

It’s hard to feel sorry for an inflatable gorilla.

I wish that I could join your enthusiasm, Justin, but after a first viewing I just cannot do so. Mind you, I never fully judge a movie after just one viewing, and I do really want to see it a second time. The script just felt too unfocused and it lacked narrative drive and a sense of urgency/energy.

Die Another Day was the highest-grossing Bond film to date (globally,) at least in terms of actual dollars. You are correct that the reboot with Casino Royale had nothing to do with box office. In fact, Broccoli & Wilson stated fairly plainly that the reason why they rebooted was purely an artistic one — DAD was so…

The game site hired to review the game after the other game sites had been embargoed, wish it to be known that they have just been embargoed. The review has been completed in an entirely different style at great expense and at the last minute.

You know, even given him the very limited benefit of the doubt — namely, that he simply thought that dieting was a good metaphor for budgeting (it isn’t, but work with me here) and never thought about how using it as an example in that way could be offensive — then it still makes him an idiot. No matter what his…

Doesn’t always work that way. I have made one or two comments on sub blogs such as Lanesplitter or Black Flag and been taken out of the greys immediately, but am still greyed on the main Jalopnik page, which is where I do the majority of my commenting. Even got one of the Bond articles updated to reflect one of my…
