I have friends who work there, I’ll have to ask them for the inside scoop on their bunker activities. People are so weird, I don’t get it. 

Hey, What about the Maginot Line? That one worked like a champ!

What? I hadn’t heard that one. The Getty museum in LA (new one I’m assuming)?

Best comment ever. I bow down. 

I agree with all the very good points you made. Falling into one of these conspiracy holes also gives some people a sense that they are special and smarter than all the rest of us ‘sheeple.’ It gives them a sense of superiority. 

He showed her pics of his KID and then slipped in a dic pic? That’s particularly disgusting. 

I think, in some part, he’s gotten away with it as he always plays this neurotic, nebbishy, man-child. When he was substantially younger it seemed less real and threatening than if someone like Liev Schrieber were playing the character (for an example of someone who comes off much more adult and sexual).

I was about 13 when it came out and I thought it was creepy as fuck then. 

She got fired and they had to pay her out for the four seasons the investigators decided she may have been on the show if she had not been fired for reporting discrimination. She’s actually not (presently) complaining about anything- this settlement was revealed as part of the larger investigation into CBS based on…

So they managed to write an obit on a woman that wouldn’t pass the Bechdel test? How can they STILL be so ridiculous. 

He’d probably have to fight Jonah Hill. Jonah Hill seems to have an almost disturbing longing for Julie Andrews (per their appearance together on the Graham Norton show). 

Would you consider teaching Ms? Not all women are married and constantly having to correct people and explain that you are not married (and often dealing with people wanting an explanation of why not) is not that fun. If married women prefer Mrs., they can ask for it, but Ms. covers all women in the same way Mr.…

state stuff is amazing and disheartening, what universe do they live in? This is not what people imagine of, ‘my kid should be doing geometry in third grade, it’s wild expectations of teaching geometry in total in  a week and half....according to the state or common core or the flavor of the month. And the high…

I clicked on this mostly because I was rolling my eyes when I assumed he was getting dragged for expressing a liking for the character Gaston or is being cast as Gaston. I thought, my God, the cool police have to give it a break.

I think people (rightly) harp on it and hate it so much because it’s become this holiday classic. If it just disappeared like most Hallmark stuff, we’d just shrug and move on, but so many people think it’s wonderful and that’s just such a clear sign of armageddon that it’s impossible not to pick up a sword and bonk…

I don’t watch Bollywood (except the very occasional film) and even I know who she is. She’s a name outside of India and Indian communities. I know of him by name as well, but when they announced their engagement, my jaw dropped as I was amazed she would pick him. He’s not in her league professionally even in the US. 

That may have been true at one time, but it isn’t anymore. I live in a large city in Cambodia where Angelina Jolie recently shot a movie about Cambodia (First they shot my father) and filmed Tomb Raider and started the Maddox Jolie Pitt foundation not far away and my mostly middle class, university students don’t even…

This is accurate. I read a ton when I was a kid and delved into my parents and grandparents bookcases. I was probably about 10 when I attempted both Pride and Prejudice and Romeo and Juliet. I think I only made it a page or two into R&J and while I got further with P&P, I didn’t get that it was funny and as soon as…

That’s exactly what I said. 

OMG, the two spaces thing. I tell all my students to save their papers from high school (and middle school if they’ve got them), so they can look back at them in 25 years when they are swearing up and down to their kids and their teachers that they were baby Fitzgerald’s when they were in high school and what is wrong…
