Next episode needs the Marvel version of:

ahh, Rubicon. talk about a slow burn (in a good way). i really liked that show.

While the stories aren't as good as I would like, I think it's a consequence of having so little time to wrap things up. At least they are doing that and not cutting it off with a cliffhanger as was done by Showtime with Odyssey 5 or as AMC did with Rubicon. Even a modest good clean ending is what I want for a…

There is a special place in hell for managers who comp the meals of total asshole customers. It only encourages them to keep their bad behavior up.

I'll add the unemployed finance guy living off unemployment who said homeless people were "leeches" that deserved to washed away into the sea. And then he sent me a ranting email about how he wasn't ever going to see me again because "real men" only want to go to diners (???????) and not apparently to the non-diner…

Watching stuff like this makes me so glad I live on the West coast...and then I remember about the entertainment industry.

I use the Diva Cup. I've never had leakage, and even on my heaviest days I can go a full day at work without changing it. If you buy it from lunapads.com, you can get a "starter kit" for like $50 that includes the cup and two reusable pantyliners and they are adorable and SO SOFT and don't feel gross like disposable…

Tatiana Maslany is a goddess and we are all just lucky to be in her world.

Emily slept with Dylan McDermott. Or was it Dermot Mulroney?

Righteous Rojo Rings $12

Yikes! Steve Jinks is Aaron Ashmore, Shawn's brother. :)

I told Mathilde this isn't some cute kitty contest but she insisted I upload his photo of her to this thread.

That's a really good argument. Nicely done.

The USA should make a stint in customer service mandatory. You should to do two years either between 16 and 18 if you're college bound or 18 and 20 if you're not.

In college I visited LA with my mom during what was our spring break. We did all the touristy things that you do on your first trip to LA. Including Universal studios. Ugh. We had only been there a couple of hours before my mom and I got into a fight about how she didn't want to go on any of the rides with me (she…

This is my first time commenting on Jez, even though I've been a long time reader. I just couldn't resist telling this story. Years ago I was working at this dive bar in Los Angeles. It was a Sunday night and really dead. In walks a man and woman and they sit at the bar, as I turn and ask what they want to drink I…

I don't know if it counts as the craziest but it's my most memorable. Within the space of 2 days, I ran into Mike Myers three times in the Westwood neighborhood of Los Angeles. The first time, he was behind me at the concession stand at a theater. I got my popcorn and pop and turned to leave and almost mowed him…

I don't usually tell stories about celebrities I've met but this one is so good I have to share.

My freshman year of university in Los Angeles I worked as a showroom model for a few boutiques in Beverly Hills. It was during movie awards season and one of the clients was Amy Madigan, who I saw frequently because she…

This didn't happen to me but is part of my family lore. In the mid 80s, before I was born, my dad went to a medical conference in Manhattan. He would have been in his late 20s- short, skinny and Asian. Very early in the morning, he went for a run in the park in little running shorts and a sleeveless top. So he gets…

Men aren't very good at hearing a "hard no" in person either though. It's partly socialization to think if they persist and find the right phrase or action then they'll win the prize, and partly thinking that women are "just playing hard to get". When I try to think how many guys have left me alone after just one…
