Louise was made for the big screen.
Murray always insisting on doing a roll call for only three people really does track with Palmer saying “everyone clapped" when it was just one dude.
One of my favorite parts of probably my favorite Marvel movie thus far.
I always thought of soft drink as a marketing term. It was surprising to learn that there are speakers who use it natively.
I would agree wholeheartedly. People get weirdly chauvinistic about language.
I grew up saying pop, switched to soda when others kept correcting me because I just didn't care enough to argue about. That's a fairly common phenomenon where I live.
Short answer: St. Louis.
I was asking my fellow AV Clubbers what they say as part of a tongue-in-cheek attempt to end the “ceasefire” to which Barsanti refers, hence the openingvphrase “Allow me to inflame tensions once again”. As you can see from some of the responses, there are some people who feel very strongly that the term that they use…

Yeah, I had an irrational dislike of her at first (emphasis on irrational). Over the years I’ve come to the conclusion that she seems like a genuinely lovely person.
This is like if a new kid transferred to your elementary school and the teacher introduced her as “Brittany” and so for years you called her “Brittany” and then you’re at your high school reunion and she says, “Oh by the way, my name is actually Whitney.”
Kal Penn, Lucca de Oliveira, and Michael Cudlitz round out the cast...
Fuck cancer.
Jim Belushi is rightly a punchline most of the time, but he at least seems to be in on the joke, and in the right role (e.g. Trading Places, The Man with One Red Shoe, Twin Peaks: The Return) and in the right (small—always small) doses, he can be surprisingly, genuinely funny.
