    So, those two normal people got to meet both Bobcat Goldthwait and Dean Cain? Cool.

    I think they were trying to do something that was a little less mainstream


    Does Bobcat Goldthwait realize that that commercial was utterly, totally mainstream? It was a silly, predictable joke based on a single tired premise you could see coming at you from miles away like a forest fire.


    It was basically every episode of Two and a Half Men, but with puke.

    @Pope John Peeps II: But isn't puke already in a regular episode of Two and a Half Men? Oh, no, that's Charlie Sheen's ego.

    Meh, the Times probably swiped it from somewhere else already anyway. Newspapers aren't known for their originality.

    @VoxPopuli: Shh. Everything posted here is from someplace else.


    I come here for two reasons.


    1) To hear you and Aaron and the rest's commentary on it.


    2) Put my dick mittens on Ryan Tate.


    So fuck where the news comes from. Bring on your noise and your funk.

    All I want to do is move to New Zealand and apprentice on a sheep farm. Unfortunately, Kiwi visas are notoriously hard to come by.

    Crafters say no to the taxman. Good source of underground income. People will buy anything furry or that smells good. Take that as you may.

    My craft is breaking down into the fetal position at 1 pm on Thursdays because it's impossible to be hired even at Barnes and Noble now.
