It’s like Margaret Atwood said: bulls are afraid cows will laugh at them, cows are afraid bulls with kill them.

I got to “I rebuke you, Satan, in the name of Jesus Christ.” and automatically assumed that was the homeless guy talking and was like ooh, yeah, what a loon - scary! And then realised that it was this woman and now I feel sorry for the homeless dude. No wonder he walked away, he was prob super weirded out.

I’m not an American, could one of you help explain something that’s been puzzling me: given that the word ‘socialist’ is so reviled in large parts of the US that Obama had to vehemently deny being one, how exactly is a self-declared socialist going to capture the vital undecided/independent/sway-able Republican vote?

Have to agree re: Christopher. When Luke and Lorelai first broke up, I was horrified, but the newly mature Chris was so much better of a match for her. Luke was just like “huh?” to all her references, while Chris would actually run with them.

THANK YOU. They did indeed all suck. As did any storylines which didn’t give Alexis Bledel a veteran actor to lean on.

Not to detract from the awfulness of the story, but why do none of these people have real names? Wtf is Sage?

Haha. My boyfriend’s favourite is “You cain’t cook, you cain’t clean the house worth a damn, you cain’t please your man!”

This is excellent news. I probably quote Coal Miner’s Daughter at least once per day. You cain’t marry him, you only thir-tayn! I also call my boyfriend a “big ol’ bar” every time he starts to get grumpy.

It’s tough to be white in Arizona.

Wow, Olivia Wilde’s self-perception skills are on point. They are a mirror-image Emily and John (I wouldn’t presume to judge the cooler couple), but I would be completely unable to identify my own ‘alternate version’. As Rabbie Burns once said: ‘O, wad some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as others see us!’

Common looks like he’s really happy to have come up with that Rome pun which has also been used as a photo caption by literally every English-speaking person who visits.

She’s got work on her hands to equal Carol Channing, who managed to bring an indescribable tenderness to an otherwise brassy role. Her rendition of the title number never fails to bring a tear to my eye - despite the lyrics being pretty cheery, it almost aches with... I don’t know. Nostalgia? The way her voice breaks

This is finally an appropriate time for me to share that I was actually a Gossip Girl. My college (in the sense of a subdivision of a university) had its own magazine with a gossip column, showcasing the college’s recent sexual/romantic scandals with barely-disguised puns on the participants names. It felt awesome,

‘Don’t you see the rest of the country looks upon New York like we’re left-wing, communist, Jewish, homosexual pornographers? I think of us that way sometimes, and I live here.’

It’s heartwarming how contempt for the rights of gays and women can bring such diametrically opposed groups together.

The Rock is such a nerdlinger.

Anyone with a modicum of intelligence can tell that BICO is about a horny chick navigating the tricky world of 1940s premarital sex to find a way to get some without becoming the talk of the town.

Kris Kristofferson wrote a beautiful and very relevant song about Sinead.

So in order to appease non-existent offended minority people, they’ve taken something away from real minority people.
