Wait until I tell my friend Ay-chilless about this. 

I thought it was pretty clear, but in case it was missed since no one mentioned it. After Jimmy gave Killian a wad of bills to pay down his father’s bar tab, a scraggly man [presumably Killian’s father] shakes him down for it in the background, and shuffles back to the bar.

Succulents

“Mitchell didn’t fend off an knocked himself out with nunchucks”

Words! They mean whatever you want them to.

No shit [with the ‘vehemently agreeing with you’ inflection, not the ‘duh’ inflection].

Weirdly, I hadn’t seen Birbiglia in so long his name didn’t immediately pop to mind when I tried to place the actor. Then not one hour after seeing BC, I caught him talking to Judd Apatow in the trailer for Judd’s standup special and it clicked.

Are you . . . a man?

His MOTHER was a mudder?!?!

Was it just me, or was Fumero giving of strong Abbi Jacobson vibes last night? I don’t know if it was line readings or inflection or body language.

As always here, anger at Trump is the grain of sand that provides the author irritation and yields the pearls of clickbait.

Don’t let it stress you out, Sal. It’ll all blow over in a day. /Richard

Jamaal Charles still gets all the Escalades.

Just the way God planned it.

The grin and the laugh said a lot, and he did apologize after a minute or so of each.

What he said is on video. My sense of it is my sense of it.

Why oh why aren’t we more popular?!?!

There are two separate tracks that make Jon’s response potentially problematic.

I don’t go so far as the people who demand an apology, but I also don’t go so far as the people who say he gave an honest and sober assessment based on his knowledge. The latter is a tad too hagiographic. Jon reacted with a sense of ‘why are you asking me about stuff that the internet says? Don’t you know all of that…

Tomsula approved!!
