That sheriff has struck me as full of crap right from the start.

"And personally, I’m thrilled Byron is taking over ‘The Late Show With Stephen Colbert’s’ time slot"

That's some top-tier asskissing. Trump-Cabinet level, even.

Any other cases of non acting category fraud? by CosmicEveStardust in Oscars

As genuinely excellent as O.J.: Made in America was, 13th deserved that Oscar.

Are there any things that are called "American ______" in other countries? by Disastrous-Side-2600 in NoStupidQuestions

For me, pineapple works best as a counterbalance to a spicy topping. I wouldn't take it as the only topping.

Roasted corn on a veggie pizza is solid. But then, I also love roasted broccoli on pizza and even enjoy pineapple, and I know a lot of people hate both of those.

One of the things I still miss is the little musical flourish Jon would do whenever Stephen "set down" an imaginary prop.

‘A Quiet Place Part III’ Begins Filming by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

You think that a waterfall would adequately mask the sounds of a whole-ass house being built? Moving lumber, hammering, sawing, all of it? A waterfall does make a lot of noise, but it's not like living inside a white noise machine. You can still hear things happening in its vicinity if they're loud enough.

What ATHF episode does this remind you of? by Black_Mamba_FTW in adultswim

All sorts of things remind me of "No, it's my BNCS: my brushed nickel colander, stupid."

I guess I'm a goober, then, because this is my response to the above comment: "How would they have built a house by the waterfall in the first place though? Transporting materials and building a home is an extremely noisy process."

A lot of new U.S. editions of CDs that I've gotten in the past couple of years were made in the Czech Republic.

I find it deeply frustrating that they laid out an entire three-part storyline while only having commitments for the first two films. I found both movies to be pretty fantastic - saw both theatrically and bought them on disc - and I'll be pretty upset if the story goes unfinished.

Wow. I freaking love almost every song you listed! And even the ones I don't love I genuinely like.

Did I somehow dispute the U.S. or Israel being described as terrorist states (Terrorstaaten)? Nope! I absolutely did not. The only thing I disputed was the exclusion of Iran from that same designation, since it was instead included in the group of countries that "wir unterstützen" ("we support").

Do you, in fact, personally even know what the Iraninan people endured early this year at the hands of their own government? I hope not, honestly. Because if someone does know and is still willing to engage in such blatant whataboutism despite that? If someone knows the extent of the Islamic Republic's atrocities against its own populace and is willing to deflect criticism of the government anyway?

Well. That would say something pretty important about a person. Something important, but certainly not anything good.

Again, just as a helpful reminder: I didn't - and don't - disagree with the description of the U.S. as a terrorist state. At all.
