    Better than 'Next week on Dexter'. . .

    OT, but sweet username. Fast n bulbous!

    He does? My error for not knowing that. He'd be taking a huge leap in gleaning anything from some garbage on the railroad tracks, but I guess in a ZA you're probably more prone to thoughts like that.

    Whether he noticed it or not is, imo, irrelevant. It was shown to illustrate that Darryl and his group are not far behind Michonne/Rick/Korrl. Even if he did notice it, it wouldn't mean anything to him as it's just a garbage candy wrapper.

    Honest question from someone who's never been to Georgia: isn't it really hot and humid for most of the year? I live way the hell up in central New York and the humidity during the summer months is killer. Can't imagine what it's like in Georgia, much less with riot gear on. It has to be pretty warm where they are,

    I'd rank Rick as below (in no particular order) Darryl, Carol, Bob, Sasha, Herschel, Tyreese, and now Joe as far as acting goes. Although, I think my judgment of his acting skill is probably hampered by how awful I think his accent work is.

    This. I was actually very pleased and feel like that's how they should always do their EP previews. We don't need crucial plot points revealed; if we're at the end of an episode of TWD, odds are we don't need stuff like that to ensure that we're going to tune in next week. Just be vague and get us a little excited.

    I dunno if I would've pegged Maggie as a fan of the Dollars trilogy, but sweet Man With No Name poncho nonetheless.

    The rambly disjointedness of her 'Don't Do Drugs!' speech was my favorite part of the episode. The way she very briefly stared off into space when she said something like 'I don't even know where I am!' and then rambled into something else was hilarious.

    Your first sentence is a George Costanza subplot. Nice to see that banks still make people sort them out themselves.

    Good points. I'm complaining about this movie and the source material, but who am I kidding? I'll probably watch this thing.

    Heartily suggest that you do check it out. It's not nearly as difficult as it's made out. The length is daunting, sure. But I feel like the 'difficulty' of it is overblown by people who can't get past his use of vocabulary and, of course, the footnotes. From what I've read, the vocabulary and technical sections are

    Just checking in to echo your sentiments. I very much wish the book had been more of just DFW delivering off-the-cuff monologues (and good God could I have done without the obnoxious stylizations Lipsky chose for DFW's speech, like he was talkin' an' not enunciatin' properly) instead of reading about how cool Lipsky

    Fellow cuse resident here. I'd been living here a few years before I found out that DFW wrote the bulk of Infinite Jest here. He picked a good city to coop himself up indoors and spend hundreds of hours writing.

    I wish I could upvote this twice. Specifically for the last bit, which perfectly encapsulates why I think Franco did the Faulkner movies.

    I feel exactly the same way. I'm a huge DFW fan and I hate this idea of a biopic. I generally don't like biopics to begin with (and like you, I'm wondering why Jason Segel? Based on all the interviews of DFW I've seen, I have no faith in him portraying Wallace), and don't really see how this book is going to

    This is a few months old, but Norm MacDonald tore BEE apart on Twitter over the latter's dismissal of Alice Munro. Got to love Norm's openness:

    One would think that Seth Myers will follow in Fallon's footsteps and put stuff on Youtube. But I guess who knows what rights SNL has to these unaired sketches/ideas.

    There's one Norm story about how when he auditioned for SNL, they asked him what impressions he could do. I think his only answer was Gene Rayburn, and I'd love to see that.

    This thread is months old, but I just watched this, so here goes:
