I'm surprised to hear that Mike only writes 1 or 2 jokes per riff.

I don't bi it.

He's not much like Saunders, but have you read DFW's short story collections (Oblivion and The Girl with Curious Hair)? I love them but they're very novel, if nothing else.

Holy Reductivity, Batman!

Looking forward to Let It Go-er!

I am white, but I watch Blackish because it's funny and generally tackles tough issues without being heavy-handed. I wouldn't watch a sitcom I didn't find funny just to have my virtue validated.

I still say William Basinski made the best Lord of the Rings trilogy.

I love communion wafers. As a still-practicing Christian it seems somehow sacrilegious to order a bag, but I can't say I haven't been tempted.

Blackish is so good that I'm kind of excited about this.

He looks much taller than Rodriguez.

My wife doesn't find him attractive either. She's more of a Greg woman.
