I don't think Warren stands a snowball's chance right now - something about yet another first-term Senator with limited governing experience…

I miss Herman Cain.

Yeah, but you forgot "cut health funding which turned tens of thousands of mentally ill people onto the streets" and "laughed about AIDS when it had a 99% mortality rate" but otherwise good summary of reagan bro

One of my dad's legs is about half as big around as it ought to be, and he has a pronounced limp.

Jay Levey seems like a little bit of a prick, honestly. I mean, he got burned pretty hard by the hollywood machine, but damn, dude, it's been thirty years.

Pretty much this, with a hint of "I'd hate to have taken the role from an actor I know."

Any time you use the phrase "I'm not bitter, but…" you're fuckin' bitter.

Ask my dad, who survived polio. He'll be glad to tell you about vaccinating your kids.

Yup. living in Atlanta, we had TBS over-the-air, which was great, and then at one point three other little syndicated stations, all of which ended up getting snapped up by Fox/WB/UPN later on. (well, the Fox affiliate eventually bought the CBS station in town, which meant that CBS wound up on one of the former UHF…

As a kid, we had this MASSIVE console TV set. That thing must weigh 150 pounds, I swear to god. The VHF dial had 2-13 with this massive dial that would CHUNK-CHUNK-CHUNK station to station, and then a "UHF" setting that was like an old-style radio tuner, where you had a thumbwheel and a little red line and you'd…

Wow, Jay Levey sure went a long way around to get back to "Well, WE don't think Kuni is racist, so uh there."

Eh. I think she'd still be hampered by her gender in the fucked up patriarchial system of This Thing of Ours.

i'm just saying, she isn't a goddamn ogre. at best she's "hollywood homely"

I always found the (unnamed) SEC on CBS theme to be far superior.

Fuck yeah, USPS. The only reason they're in financial trouble is because SMALL GUMMIT types put some pretty onerous restrictions on their budget that are unheard of in literally any other para-governmental agency.

WWE is a victim of its own success - they go for the easy money, which is to say "kids whose parents won't let them watch MMA". For a *long* time, UFC was stealing everyone over 16 from Vince.

There are fun wrestling shows?

Yeah. It was 24's Greatest Hits, except this time the mole wasn't a black woman. (Seriously, you watch the first couple of seasons and basically any black woman with any authority whatsoever is gonna end up doublecrossing the designated heroes.)

Yeah, my SR characters are always awesome. Once i pretty much played as a drag king version of Cee-Lo Green, dressed like Alex DeLarge. It was spectacular. 400 lb black woman with a giant duck's ass haircut going around town in the all-white Clockwork Orange getup.

It was the favorite movie of the five top-grossing ones, apparently.
