Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How many of the Borat victims were drunk?

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

It's intellectual bullying, to me.

That's what it is that bugs. Yep.

I have an embarrassment/humiliation squick.

Me, as well. I saw Meet the Parents with my mom in a very full theater, and I think I was the only one not roaring with laughter at all the humiliation humor. Afterwards, my mom was saying how funny it was, and I told her I was wincing in sympathy for the poor guy throughout.

Walter is a totally manipulative, passive aggressive little shit. Who whines. I find him completely unredeemable. Feh.

I've figured out the scarf smells like my grandmother's perfume. Which wouldn't be that unnerving if she hadn't been dead since 1995 and the scarf isn't that old and I really don't run into her perfume that often.

Ugh, I couldn't even make it through Meet the Parents. And I don't watch those segments of The Daily Show either.

I adore The Office, though.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I was so angry at Stiller's fiancee for not seeing how uncomfortable and unhappy he was and not taking steps to help him.

Exactly! Also, I was pissed off at him for putting up with all the bullshit.

The internet: the best place to find out that you're not alone.

Now tagless for your comfort.

You know what I like best about the Fuggers? They give credit where credit is due.

I have an embarrassment/humiliation squick.

as I kid , I couldn't watch The brady Bunch , because a lot of the 'problems' seemed designed to cause embarrassment.
