I covered home and garden tours when I was a reporter, which always left me feeling an unhealthy mixture of envy, resentment, and wistfulness.

I’m an OG Star Wars fan as well—saw it opening weekend! It was the first movie I ever waited in a line to see, and the first movie I saw multiple times. Was Princess Leia for Halloween in 1977. Knew all the trading card trivia. Owned a DIALOGUE RECORD. And when Return of the Jedi came out and I hated it, I did this…

I agree as well.

Or maybe it’s just true that her statement was inaccurate, and I was pointing it out?

I remember finding tucked in my mother’s recipe book a cooking-based comic strip that used to run in the food section of our local paper.

I remember reading that Kaufman disliked the movie so much he referred to it as Screen Door.

I find it highly unlikely that a random cop would know what a groundhog is supposed to act like.

I’d heard rumors that DMV employees administering driving tests didn’t lock their car doors or buckle their seatbelts and took points off if you didn’t insist that they do so (at the time, for some reason, I thought it was the law that car doors had to be locked). Before I took my driving test I asked a friend who’d…

It’s the crappiest food on earth that doesn’t contain actual crap.

After watching Babe, my mother requested pork chops for dinner.

The correct response to both of you is that grits are bad, but they’re still better than polenta.

That makes sense.

Paul Scott’s Raj Quartet, which was made into the legendary BBC show Jewel in the Crown? EM Forster’s A Passage to India, whose film adaption by Merchant Ivory was nominated for 11 Oscars?

That would explain why people arrive by train instead of plane.

I think she’ll do it because she’s a zealot, and he doesn’t believe in the cause the way she does.
