This ignores everything outside of the interview itself, which is frequently a sticking point for me in these conversations. IGNORE the “last name got me an audition” talking point. You still get to live in the town where the industry exists. You still have a place to crash just about everywhere you go. You don’t have…

Do you tell the families of people who died in United 93 that they’re “appropriating 9/11" because more people died in the towers so their deaths don’t matter?

I got hung up on the same thing. Jack has one date with a woman who is, frankly, a prickly asshole, and he’s instantly head over heels. And over a year later he’s still hung up on her, even though they had, what? A few dates?

Right there with you. Watched this move repeatedly in my younger years. Only thing I knew Richard Lewis from until Curb came along.

It’s an excuse that not many other professions can get away with. If you were a caterer given explicit instructions not to put peanut oil on the food because the guests are allergic, and then you slathered your meals in the stuff, you wouldn’t be able to say, “Man, people today are such marshmallows about what they…

To be fair, he didn’t just blame the audience. He also blamed the other writers.

And FWIW it’s not like he got NO laughs. He just (gasp!) didn’t get laughs from the targets of his jokes. I bet most comedy shows would seem awkward if the target of every comedian’s joke had a camera pointed at them for the punchline.

I think there’s a misconception that people - including Taylor Swift - didn’t laugh because his jokes were offensive. People didn’t laugh because they weren’t funny.

Yes! This happened to me too. I was half way through that George Santos article before I realized and did the “wait what???” double-take.  So happy.  A Christmas miracle!

I’m so tired of people getting this wrong. The character on the show is “Doctor Who’s Monster”.

“Sorry I dunno, I was just the Adam Driver, you want to ask the Adam Director.”

The cast of That 70s Show have also weighed in to remark that Russell Brand is often not as late as you might expect him to be.

OnlyFans of The Sopranos know who she is. 

Was going to say, I’m very surprised that she “only” has $60m.

I’m not. The surprisingly bad state of her finances was frequently cited as a mark against her conservatorship. 

Hard to know how much of that was stolen by her father.

He has a big ol’ lump behind one of his ears that I had never noticed before and could not stop staring at during Oppenheimer, so  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can it though? You’d be able trace literally every problem in the world throughout history up to today, to Europe.

This is so embarrassing. Come on, Europe, we have to do better.

Also, when Oppenheimer is having visions of her death during his hearing, we see a quick shot of a gloved hand drowning her in the tub, calling into question what really happened.
