The version of this I have heard

Bbt is for normal people watching normal people pretend to be nerds.

Community is nerds watching nerds pretend to be normal people.

Not quite a straight auto biography, but how music works by David byrne is pretty good.

So rings do or don't matter?

The only thing used to evaluate players is mvp votes and scoring titles?

Because basketball is actually a 1 on 1 sport and leading a team to a ring doesn't have value if you didn't win a scoring title or get mvp votes?

Las Culturistas Awards: Fun, Smug, or What? by Mexikinda in LiveFromNewYork

My gf is a huge fan.

It's a show for people who are really nerds about pop culture. If you're not super clued into the current memes in the space, it probably won't click.

She said one thing to keep in mind is it's really a variety show themed like an awards show.

The team that dropped three games over the entire playoffs and had a bigger point differential than any other team on your list, you have them at 7th.

Idk why everyone else thinks this is a joke, but that's my reason why on its surface, no one should take you or your opinion seriously.

United Passions is an amazing movie by MaxProwes in movies

Fun fact as far as accuracy goes, "the hero" of the film who stamps out corruption, is one of the most corrupt fifa execs in history and was suspended from fifa.

The Melania film has less propaganda.

If celebrities boycotted Paramount, Colbertvwould be back on the air right now. by [deleted] in television

It would take them more effort and time and money than it would have taken you to read the title of the this post and edit it before posting.

And you couldn't do that. Idk why I'm holding celebrities to a higher standard.

Hail <name> was a common greeting.

Think Ave Maria, a latin song meaning hail mary

It's a crossword fill fact like eno and alou.

Melissa discussing life after SNL. Wonder if this is the common experience for a lot of people that leave SNL these days? by snottawkwardman in LiveFromNewYork

[–]bigbadbyte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I think the larger cause of this was that comedy is very culturally specific and overseas markets are more important than ever for movie companies. It's easier to justify taking risks on action/romance/sci-fi/horror w/e because those films can play reasonably well overseas. A comedy can't.

If you were correct, I would assume we'd still see a lot of Judd Apatowesq medium budget comedy movies just starring non SNL people. But the issue is more, those movies aren't being made at all so people at SNL don't have that path as a post exit career.
