Ok I'll bite; who is the celebrity up top there?
And are they *really* famous?

Well…he's not Billy West exactly. The voice never changes.
McGuirk was funny. Very, very funny.

It's okay to like Jon Benjamin in "Dr. Katz" and "Home Movies" and
nothing else that he's ever done, right?

"Community" looked, acted, and smelled like "Scrubs" to me.
Every time I tuned in while channel-flipping, I didn't like it.
After reading so many positive comments and realizing that
people weren't kidding about loving it, I started watching it
after the 3rd season Christmas episode. Loyal viewer ever
since. (Although…

And malice too, right? (Sorry no capital "m" for the character malice.)

Thanks, m'lord.

Yeah. The headline should've read, "Exec who tried to alter Edgar Wright's vision of Ant-man has dropped out of employment."

I had 3 copies of the same book and listed them on Amazon for $3 each.
People ordered them all quickly.
Amazon charged me $2.80 for each transaction.
(They claimed to charge .99 per transaction.)
How *dare* they act like they physically owned the books I was trying to sell!

Those are ordinary kids. Like you. Or I.

Doesn't half of Christendom refer to the other half as Gentiles?

I thought what the farmer said—on the brink of death—was far more interesting than what Arya immediately followed with "nothing is nothing."

I can't help but watch the teasers. They're *just* vague enough. I thought the shot of the mountain was actually the guy Jorah referred to as "the butcher" last week. The fact that the big guy posed a dire threat to a character I actually care about was a total surprise.

Yeah; you know you're not in good hands when the opening has those kinds of laughable statements. Recently I chatted with a classmate who fancied herself a writer and she said that she wrote "voraciously."

I was pleasantly surprised to see f(x) get a mention, since all their tracks are interesting. However, when I first heard Crayon Pop I was a little shocked.
I asked my Korean friend if they were, perhaps, from North Korea?

Clazziquai is a bit too cool to be Kpop, isn't it?
Not that the list you assembled isn't awesome.

My brother-in-law tried that one on me.
"Isn't it for 12 year old girls? And don't they all sound like the Spice Girls?"
"No, they all sound like Goldfrapp."
"Yeah, but…" and you could hear the gears turning; the Seattle-bred irony trying to crank out a relevant response to avoid sounding like he was thrown, like he was…

Compromise; there's a lot of Kpop that is sort of as you describe it.
But there is enough creativity at work to make it all worth it. There are songs you've never heard which would catch you by surprise if you had the patience. The curiosity might get to you one day. Lady Gaga's got some interesting tracks, but "The…

There's a little bit of "the grass is greener" in effect here, I think. I have a Korean friend who doesn't really like Kpop, so we don't really discuss it much. She does like Chris Brown though.
Chris. Brown.

Looking like a huge dork is the best tool in my arsenal. Glad that she was at least trying to groom me!

That sounds rational. Ok! Thanks for explaining. Every time I would ask all I got was red tape, a wry smile, and a headshake.
