Bitterly cold day in Europe somewhere - Gypsy woman is sitting and begging for money so she can buy a coat for her baby. Said baby is toddling around in bare feet, a t-shirt and shorts - crying. Gypsy Mom is wearing a coat and other weather appropriate clothes.

I just don't get why they can't let the poor man use his brogue? Is a young, hot, emotionally damaged IRISH billionaire just pushing it to far for everyone?

I've been waiting to use this one. Black's Books really just speaks for all life moments.

She reminds me so much of a darling 80 something year old very petite Irish auntie I have - she just LOVES to go out for a glass or two of wine (especially that fancy stuff with the fruit) - but after two glasses and dinner it is a race to get her home for a good nap.

It's the wide eyed soft spoken combined with near absolute ruthlessness that gets me - SUCH a fascinating character.

They just want to talk about how to change your life - it really isn't evil... Always trust that nice lady in the flower dress...then BOOM - you're turned into a physically altered slut machine craving abortions. Gotta watch out for that sneaky Planned Parenthood..

My little 30lb dog currently loves all the frozen piles of snow up here...he can safely scale them without falling through and I'm pretty sure it is satisfying his massive Napoleon complex. The downside of this is that he is now right at window level of every passing car in town while "doing his business"

I briefly dated someone from Texas who couldn't/wouldn't believe that tarantulas and scorpions didn't live all over the world. I resorted to printing out maps of tarantula's habitat areas to PROVE that the Northeast was free of demon spiders/scorpions.

Even if they do believe that they are an agent of "Obummer/The Devil" their supporting documentation is generally so great that they would have to believe in a REALLY dedicated army of government agents creating a whole network of lies....But there I go again trying to bring common sense into the discussion...

I've started just posting the links to "Debunking" articles (mostly Snopes) when my relatives post/forward just absolutely ridiculous stuff - no comment at all just the link. I just wish that they could factor in thinking/researching for themselves before blindly sharing/forwarding.

Definitely agreed - while I don't agree with aspects of the Catholic Church's stance on "pro-life" it is remarkably consistent. Ax murderers on death row to barely formed cells- if they define it as "alive" then they want it to stay alive. You can't accuse them of cherry picking which life form is more worthy than…

As a sometime frequenter of the wonderfully shabby genre of Northeastern Irish "Slowly Drink Yourself to Death" Bars (okay FINE - I love them - there I said it) - I've learned the real indicator of a severe drinking problem is a pint glass of vodka.

This is the silver lining right here.

I personally always trust people with glitter.

Times like these really miss Soledad O'Brien's "I suffer no fools" interview style. She would have ripped him to verbal pieces if he even tried that with her.

I'm one of them...totally just got excited about the possibility of another book from my favorite author and forgot about all the recent legal controversies.

Worked with a woman who had Bible quotes AND baby pictures. They were updated daily.

Colin Firth....oh jeeze that list is a wonderful rabbit hole of suck.

Christian Bale's Boston accent in the Fighter made me think he was doing a British accent the first time I heard him speaking in an interview....amazing role.

I would think of Cumberbatch and Day-Lewis as nailing the generic (and not so generic in Lewis' case) accent. What movies does the bad accent stand out for you?
