@charliekohler: He has TWO kids. And NBC has spent very little money advertising Conan.

@FrankenPC: Nah, I'm leaning towards your plan - less childbirth involved. And I'm way past 14, and have probably mutated my future grandchildren into something that looks like a potato with eyes.

So the new plan is:

I've seen the trailer about 50 thousand times. So - based on the stupidity of that trailer editor, I have seen the movie, and I didn't like it.

NO FREAKING WAY. CONAN CANNOT BE FIRED.

Food for thought: There's a whole subset of very nice, thoughtful men who feel this way, too. They have a hard time feeling aroused in guilt-free manner because their desire seems like an imposition on women. I'm pretty sure my husband is in this boat.

I'm weirdly happy that Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood are doing the marriage thing. Even after seeing that weird "I wanna kill her" video he released. Terrible, I know.

@Penny: And Tyson's "story" was bizarre, too. I wonder how much editing they had to do to get that blurb somewhat coherent.

I'm not fat, I'm just well marbled.

@MegiEr: 10:30! I tell you, who hasn't woken up at 10:15 and really wanted breakfast? McDonald's is really letting down the hungover/unemployed/exhausted contingent.

They must be putting PCP in those things. Didn't some lady recently call the cops because her local McDonald's was out of nuggets, too?

@Ninja Robot Pirate: Me too! I did a double take and was completely weirded out by how unnatural she looked.

@Questioning Everything: People make selfish decisions every day. It doesn't justify my decision, but in the grand scheme of things a little cigarette smoke going into the atmosphere pales in comparison to everything else we ALL do on a daily basis.

@PhillyLass: Yes. I'll stop smoking outdoors as soon as you stop lighting a fireplace, driving a car, barbecuing, using electricity, or anything else that negatively impacts the environment and/or other people. Give me a fucking break.

@boss_lady: Between you and me and, well, everyone, so was my initial comment. That's why I re-wrote it. Ta-da!

@boss_lady: Yep. I'm down the street next to the garbage can, trying to corral my ashes and smoke into a confined area and feeling like an ass. Next time I'll join you at the picnic table.

@PhillyLass: Welcome to the planet. It's full of chemicals, and people, and sometimes people with chemicals coming out of them. Sometimes those people are assholes, and do things like yell, drive badly and smoke near others who don't smoke. Sometimes those people are nice, and don't yell, drive courteously and move…

@PhillyLass: Are you kidding me? I'm talking about smoking outside, after I've moved away from others. If I'm standing in your face and blowing smoke in your mouth, then maybe we can talk about my "modicum of control." I'm talking about city-wide bans in every outside space, period. That's a little extreme - there's a…

@elijabet: Okay, see, I understand. And this made me cry, because I get how bad it is. But what the hell am I supposed to do? It's equally frustrating on both sides - I see that now after this post - but I don't think there is anything else I do in my life that everyone else feels is a personal affront to them. As far…

@geekgirlliz: The ban has been in place for almost four years, and it's all public places - inside and out. If you're in your car, you have to keep the windows rolled up. It's absolutely insane.
