You know, he wouldn't be a fucking sucker if he intentionally played Raleigh to be wooden and inarticulate or if he was directed to do so. I watch the movie often and it helps get from one kaiju scene to the next if I imagine he is acting the hell out of a stock dumb jock character. He's so good he can do it without

When I FINALLY came out of the closet, I was able to confide in my sisters that I had a crush on Assistant Director Skinner ('He smolders' I said). It was one sort of liberation to actually come out publicly, but it was a better sort of liberation to openly admit to finding another man attractive. Thanks, Mitch

I woke up one morning thinking I was Steve Jobs, but when I went to the closet I didn't see any black sweaters. Then I thought perhaps I was Steve Jobs, but I hadn't woken up and I was having a nightmare that there weren't any black sweaters in my closet. If that's the case then I am Steve Jobs and this nightmare has

LIke that one article I read on that one web site that claimed the Olson twins both repeat the same word over and over when they are being photographed so that their mouths are in the same twisted, puffy construction.
Shkreli's word must be 'Craisins' or something like that to make that weird twisted Grinch smile he

Wait, I'll need to get a prescription for birth control before I do that.

That would be all well and good in towns with a healthy local community theater troop - how nice they would find this employment opportunity in addition to their regular stage performances. I'm concerned about other towns not so fortunate - would they end up with disaffected teens hired by the local cinema moping

Ah, I suspected as much, but was too lazy to confirm. I just went with what turned up most on posted videos. Thanks for the correction.

Scanned a ton of comments and happy to see some songs I forgot I loved.
My contribution is Pure Energy by the Information Society (ft. Leonard Nimoy).

Limahl sang the theme for the movie Neverending Story. I don't think that was a hit anywhere, but it's a piece of trivia that once seeped into my brain. One of the most amazing, yet insignificant things to ever happen to me resulted from that getting stuck in my head - the first time I ever attended pub trivia, that

You probably don't need this late to the game shout out, but I always had an inexplicable soft spot in my psyche for Centipede and figured I was the only one. Also, yes to Ace and Re-Flex.

Hippychick is pretty slick with the side benefit of making me think of Kiss Them For Me which probably doesn't qualify as a one hit wonder anywhere, but is a damn fine song.

Fifteen hours later…. Wait, you're calling Vince Guaraldi a One Hit Wonder? And you're calling that (admittedly awesome song) his one hit? Boo-urns! Boo-urns!

I think the song Hard Luck Woman doesn't entirely suck, although I do not like the KISS version or the Kiss/Garth Brooks version.

Okay, who posted the Onion article in the AV Club?

Aw, Annie - the lights of the big cities have taken your sight and stolen your heart. I wish the performers that have played shows in Missoula would do a better job of telling other performers just how awesome it is to come to Montana to play. Maybe Paul Simon will give a good word or two after tonight's show :(.

I Ctrl F'ed 'Slapshot' and just before attempting a referential joke, I saw you there. Good work, commentarian.

Two people? Just two? This is news? I'm sitting at home in the dark on a Friday night waiting for news that will shock and move me and this is what I get? Imma just gonna have to walk away from my computer for a second and refill my Frito bowl. When I get back there better be news of consequence up in this newswire.

'Pastiche'? 'Homage'? 'Panache'? I am suddenly in the mood for some marzipan or maybe a souffle or perhaps some fondant?

Fondant? There's that word again! is this the Fondantaissance?
