Ummmmmmm, spoiler alert??!?!!??!?!??!

I mean, it is conceivable that somebody cares about the Europa League.

Well, maybe not. By the way, how did Celtic do in the Europa League this year? That's the funny little Scottish team you like, right? My apologies if you actually like the Rangers, or whatever.

Let's change just one fact. It is a literal change, but not really a substantive one. Assume that, instead of a car, the drunk is waving around a handgun? How about a flame-thrower?

Did anybody read about the lawsuit he just paid about $5 million to settle? He and Joe Bastianich were apparently skimming some tribute off the servers' tip pool. Now that's klass.

are we also to assume that most people carry handguns or flame throwers around everyday? that to get home from the bar it is most efficient to carry the flame thrower?

Re: Stuck on Repeats

I've decided that "I don't come to where you work and slap the dick out of your mouth" is the perfect all-purpose rejoinder for every occasion, except for the small fraction of people I've literally slapped dick out of. But again, the exceptions are rare.

Re: Stuck on Repeats

It's not conceivable, really.

And you know exactly how we did.

So remember when I said Mike Daisey was a liar?

Which was prompted by his appearance on Real Time and his statements there and on This American Life. Well, um, yeah.
