Allyson, Anthony Bourdain gets about eleven million user reviews complaining about excessive profanity every time he puts a book out. Which I think is funny because:
a. It's always funny when it's not you.
2.Anthony Bourdain is on TV and the interpipes ALL THE TIME via his travel show(that has a parental disclaimer, btw,) and yet there is always some hoople from a flyover state who knows the name is famous but doesn't know why and takes it upon herself to sniff something like "His constant profanity and drug references speak to a real failure of imagination."
Um, it's Bourdain. It's what he does. Well, that and trash the Food Network. Like Ringo's drums, they loom large in his legend.
She ain't movin'. Serenity's not movin'.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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
"His constant profanity and drug references speak to a real failure of imagination."
I think these are the same people who say, "sarcasm is the lowest form of humor."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think pretty much every post on the NPR pop culture blog has at least one comment "taking NPR to task" for covering pop culture.

Because books.
How ... kind of his agent to suggest that he consider being bi to "keep his options" open.
Can you imagine anyone saying that to a successful straight actor? And yet, if you're gay, I guess you're supposed to just be thankful to get roles?
People are so gross.

Who knew that Sean Maher was in the closet?
As opposed to (1) we already thought he was out, or (2) we thought he was straight?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I read the comment as (1)... and enjoyed it greatly.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I thought he was already out, because I feel like I knew he had kids with his partner. But I could be wrong, or maybe it we knew because he was in kat's yoga class (I think).

I fear he cannot redeem The Playboy Club, though.

Yeah, I assumed he was already out.
