When that chair started leaning back, my friend shouted “They’re waterboarding Beyonce!” I snarfled Diet Coke up my nose and haven’t been right since.

You’re right — so many parents would rather someone else fix their kids and home problems than buckle down and do it themselves. That some of them pass along their troubled children to Dr. Phil, of all people, is chilling.

Dr. Phil sent her to Turnaround Ranch — one of those boot camp deals — and she did very well there. According to the Ranch’s director, she eventually lost the shit attitude, spoke like a normal person and became a leader in the camp. She even took care of her horse and was respectful of authority. It didn’t last,…

I am not defending Dr. Phil here but he does provide high-end/expensive rehab and related treatment to most of his guests. Which is why, outside of being on the tee-vee, many of these yutzes are guests in the first place. I work in social services and, on average, these treatment centres run about $100K for 60 days…

Have you noticed that any woman who dares to approach Nick with a concern is instantly sent home? “I think that this might not be the best environment for you. So I am going to say good-bye to you here.” He’s too dumb and lazy to deal with anything more serious than a bouncy-house, evidently.

And that’s one huge, square noggin he’s got there. Empty, obviously, but kind of ginormous.

You’re a better woman than I am, then. I got halfway through TD2 and just could. not. finish. it. Everyone was cast so badly and seemed to think that emoting intensity meant looking vaguely pissed off. I was going back and forth between crowning Vince Vaughn or Rachel McAdams as the absolute worst thing about the…

LOST boring was like True Detective Season 2 boring. Only TD2 was boring mixed with rage and abject disappointment because the first season was so good. Just thought I’d add that.

And are almost professionally stupid. I came across a ransacked copy of “Fifty Shades...” in the true crime section of my teeny local library (there’s something ironic in just that alone), and someone had highlighted the dirty parts in pink highlighter. Meaning, you now don’t have to take the trouble to slog your way…

Right up there is people talking/writing about their effing dreams. It didn’t happen and now you’re telling me about something that never happened and now you’re writing about something that never happened. Fuck off.

My neighbour/friend’s cat had this treatment and it was a resounding success. She hated leaving Burt at the vet’s for a week and the cost was ridiculous but all’s well. Burt is perfectly healthy. I hope your kitty has the same luck. Take care of you both.

I know!!! I work with a woman who is developing these ultra-eyebags and I often feel sad for her. Then I remember that she’s a terrible person who spits when she speaks and I feel only 1% sad.

Goddamn, that’s funny. And, unfortunately, true.

You said it well. Obama has such an ease about and with himself, and it shows. His grace and good humour went far in propelling him through an historic Presidency.

By the time that the kangaroo shows up, the show is already so wonky that the ‘roo doesn’t seen ALL THAT surprising. It’s a frothy piece of tv, is what it is. And Jude Law is impeccably cast — Dickie Greenleaf in devastating robes and capes!

Right? If you can hold your own against Clooney, you’re one handsome man. And the rolled up shirt sleeves added to the sizzle.

Ditto! I am Canadian and our Prime Minister gives me the same fuzzies and catch-of-breath that Obama does. And he hasn’t done anything to fuck up the world so far, so there’s a lot of hope. Trump can suck it.

I really, really hope not. Cosby has dodged litigation and punishment for damaging literally dozens of women, and has done so for decades. It is high time that he stand trial; his accusers deserve that, at the very least.

He had a daily afternoon talk show on here in Canada in the late 70's (I think) and it was actually pretty good. His guests included quite a few now-established comedians like Gilbert Gottfried, Emo Phillips, Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno. It was the show I watched after school for a few years. We only had 2 channels.

Yep. And he wouldn’t do certain kissing scenes - like, how graphic could a kiss on Growing Pains be?
