I wasn’t aware one could file defamation suits against crazy. Thanks, Arsenio, for teaching me something today.

Thank god… I was really worried about her.

Also, is it time to move to Wilmette and be her friendly neighbor.

@Daneel: I will likely have to watch Dark Tower several times before I’ll be able to pay any damned attention to the words coming out of anyone’s mouth. For the second time ever, I’m looking forward to a Stephen King movie coming out (I was all of about 12 when this happened the first time, may Mr. Phoenix rest in peace).

I know right!? So looking forward to this!

That’s from Seven Chances. The only good remake of that plot I have seen was a 3 Stooges short.
See the whole film. Then see The General and a bunch of Keaton’s shorts and Steamboat Bill Jr, and etc.

ETA Buster did all his own stunts. He did not trust the stuntmen to do it right.

They already backtracked, and then got criticized for that too.

I’m not sure how much money you save by not hosting a website with recipes on it, anyway. Don’t think their hosting fees would have dropped by $15m.

Dear whiny dudebros, there really is a metric fuckton of ā€˜guys’ shows out there already (and a lot that I would rather not hear about much less see) so please please kindly quit making me look bad because I also happen to have dangly bits. Oooh the show is all empowering to women, well you know what, that is a good thing. We could use a whole lot more of that if you ask me.

Re: Men tanking imdb ratings for shows women watch.

Now, some guy with an egg as a Twitter avatar could argue that shows with female-heavy audiences are lower-quality.

Ah, Twitter eggs.

That list at the end of show with more than 1 point difference between male and female ratings is very telling.

The ā€œthey’re doing well and we can’t compete - no fairā€ criticism is just sad. And I am sad that Trump is ruining the word ā€œsad.ā€

So that’s why Sex in the City 2 ā€œsucksā€.

Maybe you should have stuck with Entourage.

We’ve been all over this on Twitter, not solely for this, but because the first google of that womans name is an article about how she’s going to keep her husband forever because she’s going to ā€œstay hotā€ for him … (also apparently her husband is a con artist?) and gag me a spoon… my eyes just rolled right out of my head…

I saw a blurb about that on whatever morning program it was that was on while I was getting my teeth cleaned this morning. The hygenist and I were both a little dubious, to say the least.

Her twitter bio says she’s an actress.

Her only named role on IMDB is in something called Nude Nuns with Big Guns. Sounds good!

Almost simultaneously, in early May, the organization announced the launch of an affiliated venture, run by many of the same operatives, called Definers Public Affairs. Definers offers to wage political-style negative campaigns, for profit, on behalf of undisclosed private clients, including corporations. According to its Web site, Definers will ā€œcreate dossiersā€ on opponents, monitor them from a ā€œfull-service war room,ā€ and build both ā€œgrassrootsā€ alliances and ā€œa paid online presence.ā€ This raises the possibility that undisclosed business interests are paying to choose the targets they want Republican operatives to attack.

Could this explain our recent influx of reflux-inducing newbies?

I know it’s not nice to laugh at other’s misfortune, but O’Keefe is an ass and I’m glad this happened to him. It’s people like him who are making the world a worse place…

As the to the quoted stuff - I would not doubt it.

If it’s not nice to laugh at that phone call, I don’t want to be nice.

Yeah. People like him don’t care about the public or the truth, they care about scoring partisan points and bringing down the ā€œother sideā€ at all cost, no matter what the damage is.

So, yeah, let’s all laugh at that asshole… :wink:
