What is a "Columbian Office Building"?

The legend goes that Subway specially formulated that smell and sprays it in all of their stores - it's supposed to suggest freshly-baked bread (instead of heated frozen bread).

Huh - I did high school theater with Ty Olwin! Super sweet kid.

The Last Word is one of my favorite cocktails. If you've never had one, you should order one next time you're at a decent bar. That's all I have to say about that.

"Thanks, but I really shouldn't, I'm a total lightweight…I drink one beer and next thing I know, I'm trapped in an empty swimming pool getting implanted with extradimensional slugs."

Mothra, portrayed by the incomparable Dame Judy Dench in a mo-cap suit.

Too bad they killed the most interesting character halfway through Godzilla…I would love to watch a monster-fighting buddy-cop movie starring jaded-and-paranoid-breaking-bad-season-5 Bryan Cranston and pure-steve-brule-batshit John C Reilly.

I learned recently that he and Carrie Fisher were really good lifelong friends and it was Miguel who encouraged her to audition for Star Wars. They died within a few days of eachother.

I'm from Carroll Gardens/Gowanus, Brooklyn!
Phil and Elizabeth Jennings have been beating up Reagan-era FBI agents outside my front door every weekend for years!

Agreed, but I'd draw a distinction between how an average person would react around infectious disease and how a medical professional is supposed to react. It's like a fireman hesitating to respond to an alarm that sounds particularly dangerous.

My mom did similar work, in SF in the early 80s…she said many techs and nurses and even some doctors refused to handle AIDS (then still known as GRID) samples or even treat patients with AIDS, either out of homophobia or garden-variety terrified self-preservation. It got so only a few people at her hospital would work…

I have no interest in the movie… I do, however, love the idea of John Goodman, Sam Jackson, and John C. Reilly joking around at an island bar after shooting wraps for the day.

Glenn Close fighting her way through the ruins of a post-apocalyptic city? I am on board with this.

Or the one where GoT and Girls take place in the same universe, 1000 years apart.

He got shot by John Wick, I heard!

While his castmates were freezing in Iceland, I can comfirm that Peter Dinklage was getting coffee on a lovely 65-degree day here in Brooklyn with his adorable 6-year-old daughter. I can also confirm that they are the same height.

Amen - mix Goya ginger with some Myers or Goslings rum and a spritz of lime, and I'm good for a whole summer.

Italy also has chinotto, which is a magical bittersweet cola…almost like a carbonated non-alcoholic amaro.

I loved "Leather-faced piss jar", courtesy of a disgruntled tweeting Scotsman mocking Trump's ignorance of Brexit.
