We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Oh, it was definitely all for Vince. He never would have left his manager's gig at Sbarro's if Vinnie hadn't made him come out there--managing Vince was just an excuse Vince used to make him come. Lo and behold, he actually took to it. He only produced because it was Vinnie's movie, and he turned out to be good at that too. It's just in his nature, and his history, to let Vinnie take the spotlight.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It's like Tenacious D, but waaaay funnier.

So, at least as funny as John Kerry telling jokes, then?

While that's all true, I think he also has strong urge to prove that he can be successful without Vince. Or maybe that was just something he was trying to believe for whatsername.

heh, where was that posted, Corwood?

Ziggy!

The Wire thing was reposted from a casting call received by a friend of a friend in Philadelphia.

Always Anti-fascist!

cool. I'd be a corpse for them. It's not every show I'd do it for, but for The Wire, it'd be an honor.

I just watched my first episode of John From Cincinnati, thanks to a free podcast download at iTunes. I dig it! It seems to be about ontology and quantum mechanics and perfection vs. imperfection in imperfect systems. I wish we had HBO again.
