    It looks a little like Garth Marenghi's Darkplace Hospital.

    I *think* I used to hear a version of Suit & Tie without Jay-Z in it on the radio.

    Total agreement about the OCD thing. Even as someone who also has OCD, I hadn't quite thought about it that way. I was more fixated on the fact that Chuck appears to be of genius-level intelligence. There's the stereotype of people with high-intelligence being absent-minded, and that sort of clicked with me thinking

    "Blurred Lines" was produced by Thicke and Pharrell with an intention of creating a sound similar to Marvin Gaye's "Got to Give It Up" (1977). The song was completed in less than an hour.[6] In an interview with GQ's Stelios Phili, Thicke explained:

    Uh, what? Read about the song. I'm not misunderstanding anything. I am telling you what they tried to do. And it won't get overturned.

    How does it set a legal precedent? This is hardly the first case like this.

    I'm ignorant here. How did the Verve get boned and lose money? They used the Rolling Stones's music in their song, no?

    Nope. This is not a slippery slope argument. This is about a song that sounds extremely similar to an older song, so much so that they, again, preemptively sued Marvin Gaye over in order to try to halt any future lawsuits.

    I'm totally on board with it. I mean, yes, it's mostly because I love Gaye's song and because I loathe the Robin Thicke one, but there's also the fact that 'Blurred Lines' lyrics are gross and the fact that they all preemptively sued the Gaye family and tried to invalidate Marvin Gaye's original copyright on 'Got to

    The way Annie Clark audibly reacts to that one makes it even better.

    Chris d'Elia is the 2010s answer to Ted McGinley, with 100x more grease and dog shit.

    I mean, say what you want about being the channel that fucked up Twin Peaks, Dude, at least it's an identity.

    Oh man, I love those. They just added 'Grit' in my area and had 'The Running Man' on at like 9am on a Sunday.

    Have you checked out some of the sites out there that show you the optimal direction/placement of your antenna? They also show the sources. This article is pretty informative and the links in Step 1 help out:

    live-stream broadcast networks like ABC, CBS, and Fox

    If you're more interested in the failures of the CJS, then what does it matter what Sarah Koenig thinks? She should just be telling the story, not make herself a part of it. I mentioned it elsewhere, but The Thin Blue Line is an excellent example of documenting a real-life case. Did it matter what Errol Morris

    Exactly. Like, how else was it supposed to end? How can something based on real life be 'disappointing' to the fans? It's life.

    The comments come so GD fast n furious on this site that it's hard not to make the same points. Strength in numbers, though, as this article made no sense to me. Glad I'm not the only one.

    He also probably had a case of Grapes of Wrath-level skitters a few hours later.

    haha, so true. I'm sure it's different when you're there and in person, but I'm always baffled by how completely jurors are smooth- and sweet-talked by obvious charlatan lawyers.
