That is a pretty good Harrison Ford impression.

Nice work kid, take the rest of the fucking day off!

If it was about a Lyft driver, the guy’s name would be Cliff.

Nice, thanks.

Who is that old dude in the publicity photo? He looks familiar.

For anyone that followed the Jian Ghomeshi saga, the actress that is suing Weinstein has hired the lawyer that defended Ghomeshi in his criminal trial.

No, a spoon. I’m not a monster.

I do the same thing whenever my friends take a dick pic. Reactions are similar.

Co-signed.

Would the scarf attack go something like this?

Replied to the wrong comment, to re-post: it’s pretty common for NDAs to include a clause that permits disclosure of confidential information if the recipient is compelled to disclose it pursuant to a law or court order or some other legal process.

The hand-sketch bit makes me laugh every time. It’s so ridiculous, and Cruise sells it so earnestly. I love how Renner responds with a straight face “It’s a crude drawing, but it looks like...” - no shit it’s a crude drawing, it’s on his palm!

And it’s by a writer who’s not full-time staff...
