He can be funny and an asshole. I hear the two are not mutually incompatible.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But the funny is charming! I want charming and asshole to be mutually incompatible. It's simpler that way. And usually I'm pretty good about writing off the assholes.

I want charming and asshole to be mutually incompatible.
There's a fine, fine line between charming and asshole.
OR
One person's "charming" is another person's "asshole."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I still haven't read Deathly Hallows. I'm a-skeered. Also good at skimming.
That's sad news about Maggie Smith. ::queues up Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and Ladies in Lavender::

Our wings are not tired.
I don't know the sad news about Maggie Smith, because, having not seen or read any Harry Potter, but wanting to some day, I had to skim all of the previous posts.
But I got to see her on stage a couple of years ago in a West End production of The Lady From Dubuque. The play itself is pretty much crap, but she was awesome. Which, not a surprise.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
One person's "charming" is another person's "asshole."
So I was going to make a joke about Urban Dictionary, and then I saw definition number 5 for "charming."
Here's a tip: don't do what I just did.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I went and did what you did . . .
I'd be horrified if I wasn't giggling.

There's a fine, fine line between charming and asshole.
But my line? I like it to be bright.

Okay, now people are just making stuff up, right?

That's my guess. I would hope.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I must say, my rational mind wants to dislike Russell Brand, but I am totally charmed by him, even when he's playing a horrible person.
The six-part Python documentary that was on IFC (I think) last year put me off of him completely. I kept wanting to smack him during his interview segments. And never stop.
