We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

There's so much crazy in this sentance, I don't even know what's the craziest part.

Are we sure it's not Sasha Baron Cohen's latest movie?

The thing is, however progressive South Pacific may have been for its time, it's still, to me, unwatchable in 2010. The racism is only a part of it - there's also the fact that the tragic love story between Joe and Liat begins with him raping her (with her mother's permission, of course).

Yeah... it's the racism is bad angle on one hand with the portrayal of Liat and Bloody Mary essentially throwing her daughter at the hot white man.

But I do love most of those songs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I totes agree, Kat! I went to that same production a couple of weeks ago, and I kept being blown away over and over. "Oh yeah, this great song is from this show, and now this OTHER great song is from this show and now THIS one..." An incredible score.

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

"What motivated him to throw a puppy at the Hell's Angels is currently unclear"

And I suspect it will remain so.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm glad the puppy is in safe hands, but I have to admit that I'm more compelled by the stolen bulldozer -- and more specifically, how the hell he got away???? because, srsly folks, those things do not go faster than a whole pack of Harleys propelled by badass puppy-lovers out for revenge.

'Minotaurs The New Vampires' Says Publishing Executive Desperate To Find New Vampires

I honestly would have believed this was a real, non-Onion article.

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

Are there Hell's Angels who live in Germany? Or were those Hell's Angels just visiting?

Also, watching Edward Scissorhands. Winona Ryder's hair looks so awful.
