I'm still slightly angry about the AOL commercials circa 2004 that did that same concept, but with websites, because they were clearly aimed at people who thought WebMD was some kind of AOL exclusive.

Around 2009 I was working in a tiny TV market making an ad for the local Small Business Administration when I realized that the script made by the client called for a free spotlight for another local small business. An ad within an ad, but also a free ad inside a paid one. I was so weirded out I went to my supervisor…

So in the sense that the guy who made "Manos: The Hands of Fate" was right when he said that even he could make a movie…

"Diwali" should be up there as well. Michael photoshops his face into a family photo of Carol, who he has only been on nine dates with, actually replacing her ex-husband and the father of her children with himself. Then he takes her to Kelly's Diwali celebration and tells her it's the Indian Halloween, and she arrives…

Not really an asshole, more of an idiot. He said he'd pay for all their college tuition because in his fantasy world, he'd be super-rich and successful by the time they all graduated, and of course he wasn't. It's been described as the one time where his idiocy went beyond just causing cringeworthy moments and…

Yeah, that makes sense. But this movie expects kids to know the songs somehow? Like, did they not think of how unlikely it was that they'd see it enough times? Or were they just lost in their wild fantasies where every kid would see it six times?

Also, it was odd that in all that talk of comparing it to television, he never once discussed the possibility that many reviewers of the movie talked about when it first came out: That maybe it and the Valentine's Day movie were made mostly with scoring TV residuals in mind. Networks need something to air and it's New…

If nothing else, bring him a cookie because he sounds borderline suicidal at the end of this column. "It would only be a slight exaggeration to call the world a hideous, soul-shaking miasma of unfathomable pain and horror." Yeesh!

I want him to do Supertrain, if he hasn't already. More in the "notorious flops" category than "offbeat cop shows" one.

Either that or people bought them (or got them for free from some libertarian group that I seem to recall giving them out), realized they sucked, and donated them.

I worked there as a cashier for a summer and a Christmas break during college. It sucked, but it's not the worst job I've ever had, which was working at a movie theater. Also paid like a dollar an hour more than Walmart.

The weird part is how it starts with "my neighbor's aunty." That's the weirdest opening to one of these spam posts I've seen since "My best friend's ex-wfie," which I guess the poster is in contact with for some reason.

4 months after it came out was too soon to look back at this movie. Half of what makes My World of Flops so great is that it's re-visiting movies that are more or less completely forgotten. Should be a two-year wait at minimum.

I worked in southeast Alaska summer 2012 and there seemed to still be a tiny (~28% approval rating in the state), but seriously dedicated core of supporters to her there who were also dead-certain she was going to run, even though the primaries had begun months earlier. One store had a bunch of homemade Palin stuff up…

UPDATE: She wasn't picked.

Somebody elsewhere had a good comment about how the only thing conservatives care about anymore is "stiggin it to the libs." Actual issues? Meh.
