    Someone "invented" PHP? I'd always assumed it had plopped out of the collective asses of a thousand webmonkeys. Seriously, if I'd invented PHP, I wouldn't be bragging about it. #yahoo

    In reply to Microsoft Flacks Banned 'Forever' Over a 'Significantly Less Blue' Scoop
    After reading John Cook's earlier article about the coziness between the NYT reporters and this article about "deals" or "embargos" between reporters and corporations, really, why would anyone trust the media. There should be no deals, not between politicians and reporters and not between tech companies and reporters!!! Yeah, yeah, the argument is that, that is how you get cooperation and information, but trust me, the information would get out - it might be harder, but isn't that the job of a reporter. And in this case, a "lighter blue," it would have been obvious - no need to worry about the missing minutes there (obligatory Nixon reference due to issues of coverup and reporting). #mikearrington

    In reply to Who's Turned on Family Guy?
    Folks, don’t get angry at "Family Guy." It’s easy to ignore. If you have a friend who likes it just keep on saying "Yes!" and "I know!" and they will think you watched the show. And then the conversation can end and you can go home and get new friends! #familyguy

    @SpyMagician: I feel slightly guilty for despising FG (and the entire MacFarlane catalog) because some people I really like really like it. It's a weird outlier where our tastes are very compatible, except for FG. Which they love, and I hate.

    Luckily, there's Robot Chicken, Venture Bros, South Park, and most of Adult Swim to balance MacFarlanitis out. It doesn't look like he'll be the only game in town anytime soon. So peace on TV and goodwill to all men, etc. #familyguy

    In reply to Who's Turned on Family Guy?
    I think the show has become an imitation of itself - I feel like in earlier seasons, there was always a cultural wit that was stitched into the brutality of it, and now when I'm watching, it feels forced and phoned in. The show's detailed attention to cruelty has for the most part gotten stale. I also think the Simpsons is boring but mostly because it's old and they've done everything under the sun. #familyguy

    Aren't the actors on Family Guy afraid they'll be typecast when they go to look for other work?

    @Cynical Media Bitch: In later life they'll have to become character actors, won't they? Those youthful good looks can't last forever.
