You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Someone should start a website. StrikeWank.com

I'm tempted almost every day.

It would certainly be more interesting than reading the entires and comments at unitedhollywood and deadlinehollywood. And a hell of a lot less depressing.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I thought unitedhollywood was strikewank. Can't we buy the URL and just point it there?

Speaking of wank, those Speechless videos are the most inane crap EVAH.

I got halfway through the videos. The one with Eva Longoria and Nicolette Sheridan made me want to hurt someone.

And I LIKE Desperate Housewives.

I gave up halfway through the first one. Though the last one, the montage, did provide me with my favorite comment on DHD:

Jeez. This strike has lasted so long we’re already into reruns of Speechless.

ETA: Letterman and Ferguson to return to the air WITH their writers.

Hollywood studios said Friday that striking writers have now lost more in salary and benefits than they had hoped to gain by walking off the job.

In the message posted on its Web site and YouTube, the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers claimed losses by writers in the eight-week strike have exceeded $151 million.

That's the price tag the Writers Guild of America put on its proposed three-year deal with studios.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Most of the Speechless videos are kind of sad or outright irritating, but the one with Alan Cumming is a total delight.
