He has no other excuse than being raised in a hate-filled home and having ASD (he belongs to a volunteer organization I'm in, and I have seen his personnel file). I don't blame the ASD for his being a white supremacist and misogynist, but it is what makes him incredibly unpleasant to be around, since he can't fucking…

Was he a starter? Because Bloomsburg is Division II, which means they only have 9 baseball scholarships to hand out. He may not be a scholarship athlete (although if he was, I can see where a school with very limited scholarships for a sport might be even more willing to kick an athlete to the curb for bad behavior —…

I think the problem may be that Eva Mendes is really, really bad at telling jokes. Really bad.

She's not the same, she has no shame (she's on fire).

Is the rum good for your hair, too?

I think at this point, anyone who poses for anything more than the local circular is a supermodel, much like every person who does porn is a *star*.

Are you living in a sitcom? Because that's the only place I've seen that "dream of cheating" thing, and it's been used there a lot.

Have to disagree with your last bit. The most virulently racist, sexist person I've ever known is an Aspie. He was raised with parents with those beliefs, and his ASD just makes him incredibly dogmatic about it. He will drone on for hours about the inferiority of black people and all women, and pick up on no cues to…

When I first came down with RA, it was severe and obvious, with the swelling and stuff. I went to an older, male, rheumatologist first, and he put me on massive doses of steroids and NSAIDs (and no DMARDs). After about 2 months, the swelling of that initial flare went down, as it does, and he said, well, I think it…

You laugh, but not long ago, someone quoted Louis CK, and I pointed out that he acknowledged that he was quoting Margaret Atwood there, and the commenter (who I'm pretty sure was a woman) informed me that it didn't really "sink home" until Louis CK said it. And I screamed into a pillow.

Have you ever turned on the closed captioning during a live event? You can tell when they are using a computer to transcribe, because it will be garbled bullshit completely unrelated to what is happening (the voice recognition software used for taped shows is double-checked by a live human). Live stenographers are so…

You picked two names that both have alternative spellings (Anne, Leigh), you evil genius.

The only thing I get there is a latte with skim milk, never sugar (sugar in coffee is gross). Why would I get a milkshake at Starbucks when I can go to my local ice cream place and get one that is 20 times better?

Not even close. Game of Thrones is on premium cable, so while it gets talked about a lot, it's nowhere near the most popular show on cable (The Walking Dead, followed by wrestling, then Rizzoli & Isles, of all things). Broadcast, that's Big Bang Theory, followed by The Voice. The Simpsons are old hat; Friends, 30…

Damn, that was fucking adorable. Hope they do another edition this year.

Ashwaubenon, Muscoda, Yurin...

Damn, between this and "my friends call me Jules", I would think she's doing satire if I thought she actually had a sense of humor.

Yup, not really a choice there, unless your doctor's office can't figure out your Medicare number is just your SSN with an A at the end.

I think it depends on whether the husband is also an actor/in the business, and whether he managed to win one before her. If he is and he hasn't, look out.

No one laughs at 50s makeup that way now. As Small Turnip noted, once you get really far away, it becomes classic, but in the near term, yes, we laugh at the stuff from within the last 30 or so years. Trust me, in the 80s we laughed at 50s makeup — that was so matronly, not cool like we were with the neon and the…
