speaking of ads before a show, just before the Rolling Stones concert on their latest tour, they run an AARP commercial on the big screen lol. I just about died laughing.

That’s not what The Bear is about.

Kevin Bacon told this story on Graham Norton years ago. FWIW, it’s a pretty funny story the way he tells it:

Isn't he the best?

Deathstalker 2 being tongue in cheek is an understatement. After a short pre-credits scene, it literally starts with one of the villains yelling at her minions:

He's a real dean-va!

He'll never watch his life slide out of view

This is how 90% of my PlayStation friends reply when I try to make a joke.

I assume he was joking.  I’ve seen Nicole Kidman in line at a coffee shop and she had to wait like everyone else.

Genuinely surprised no one’s posted the I Think You Should Leave sketch yet.

Scrolled through expecting to see ‘Master of None’ and nothing.  Any series which manages to fit Aphex Twin, Vengaboys, Poison and Dorothy Ashby into its sound world must be worth a mention.

Trying to piss off the Gen X’ers by not including The Americans?

The “Devil Town” cover at the end of Friday Night Lights season 1 is still my favorite needle drop.
