As requested: "Friends with benefits? You mean like Blue Cross?"

What irks me is that I have both a AVC/Disqus merged account (that doesn't seem to work anywhere but here) as well as a Disqus account for everywhere else (but also works here). It's a bummer when they get crossed up, because image is everything and I always want to be an articulate chimp in a sailor suit for you…

To be fair, Ofcom has its reasons. AND WE HAVE OURS.

This just in: Sky Atlantic, which runs LWT in the UK, decided not to run this week's episode in its Monday night slot. Instead, it's going to air on Thursday night…exactly ten minutes after the polls close for the Brexit vote.

Oh yeah, I read the whole interview, and you're pretty much on the money. I'm just wishing the trigger for this conversation was someone who had the "secret genius" part of the equation a little more locked down.

So far on the TMNT2 tour, Megan's done Chelsea Handler's horoscope chart, talked about palmistry on Jimmy Kimmel, and tried to open Conan O'Brien sacral chakra. As much credit as I want to give her for having a curious mind, I cannot help but notice that a lot of the things she's choosing to be smart about are…

Glad that Dennis liked the return of Regine, but….have you ever mentally prepared for every potential problem but the one you actually ended up getting? Because I had literally blanked that character out of my mind until the audience's recognition applause.

Okay fine, who's going to be the first comedian for the Correspondents' Dinner of The Protectorate of South Canada?

Oh god, that was beautiful…and very appropriate.

Who's going to be the comedian for Trump's first time? Jeff Dunham or Larry the Cable Guy?

Really enjoyed Larry's routine. Really REALLY enjoyed the uncomfortable reactions in the first half, especially Wolf Blitzer's "pass the goddamn bottle" face.

A lot of amazing people have checked out in just the first four months of this year. Maybe they're trying to tell us something?

That's a sad but useful truth in politics: It's easier to budge an elected official by making huge sacks of money fly away than making people turn out at the polls in unignorable numbers.

The state legislature knew exactly what they were doing. They didn't release the full text of the bill until a few hours before the governor signed it. No public oversight, no sunshine in the process at all. And it all happens in an election year, which I'm sure is a coincidence, and not a cynical ploy to motivate a…

I often wonder what would happen if they hired on some creative personnel who are familiar with Mexican film culture and used that as the launching point for a Speedy revival instead of the Hollywood version of the country. And then I read that Eugenio Derbez was involved and wondered if he was thinking the same thing.

Pieces like these are an investment in the future, based on the idea that a lot of people outside of the hyper-political bubble haven't really made up their minds yet.

One of the most jarring things about this whole season is that the dude doesn't even use dog whistles. He speaks fluent dog with a perfect accent.

*pours gasoline can over head, strikes match while weeping uncontrollably*

What kind of monster are you?
(And yes, I agree.)

At the risk of being that guy, if it wasn't for Sha-Na-Na we'd be talking about a campy beatnik musical right now.
