What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I've never heard Sade, but I totally guessed her when I had no idea who the artist was during the music round on trivia night, and I was right.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

ND, he also wants to know if you have any pull and can get us a Mickey.

Does it count as a mickey if you ask for it?

It's the movie they used as the plot for Airplane.

I need to see that. My brother stumbled upon it a few months ago. Maybe also on TCM? I think he came in partway through, so he was like, "Huh. This plot is oddly familiar but I can't quite place it... Oh! Wow! I had no idea how faithful Airplane was!"

I don't really have a conclusion to this anecdote but: it was cute because my brother dorked out. The end!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh! Wow! I had no idea how faithful Airplane was!"

They actually bought the rights so they could follow the plot exactly.

The line, "I guess I picked the wrong week to quit smoking" is in the movie.

Sterling Hayden is the ex-commander guiding him in from the ground.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Whoa - guy with an eyepatch! So random.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Random thought for the evening: There needs to be some cross-network crossover in which John Casey (from Chuck) and Sue Sylvester (from Glee) meet. It would be magical.

Sue Sylvester could only improve any other show she came into contact with. There's a simply marvelous Glee/SPN crossover in which she snarks all over Dean.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Do you have a link to that, Consuela?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

He landed safely, and his CO respects him now, and his manhood is restored.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I... I like liver. A lot. No one else in my house does, so I don't get to eat it.

I love liver. Even as a kid, I was a huge freak and loved it. Somehow I didn't get the official Kid Memo that I was supposed to hate liver, so I gobbled it up whenever my mom made it.

No onions, though. Ick.

Also, my apple crisp is really good.
