Jumbo’s has been surprisingly cleaned up from what it was a few years ago. There are far fewer bruises, cuts and band-aids on the dancers’ legs these days.

“God gave the Bill of Rights.” For church-going folk they seem pretty misinformed on the Bible, because James Madison isn’t mentioned in there anywhere.

There seemed to be someone appearing in the scenes that soured this whole episode. Painful to watch.
(FTFY)

fwiw, I don’t think it’s fair to criticize her for not memorizing lines since the performers are encouraged to read the lines off the cue cards… they’re changing the scripts all the way up to air, so it makes sense to have them read off the cards. It’s still totally fair to criticize her for being super terrible at reading the cue cards, having absolutely no comic timing, begging to host the show for no reason, and not having done anything good since 2003, though.

He’s stealing bits from Tom Green! Can we get Joe Rogan involved somehow?

while most of the things Gabe highlighted from the article were not actual direct Ricky Gervais quotes, this is the final paragraph of the article and is TOTALLY a Ricky Gervais quote and it TOTALLY obnoxious and smug and needlessly dismissive and self-promotional and arrogant:
“I do the Golden Globes like some people play golf on a Saturday,” he said. “It’s fun, but it can’t affect me because come Monday morning, I’ll be writing a new stand-up show or I’ll be writing a new TV show or I’ll be writing a new film. So it’s not exactly bravery.”

ugh. (still excited for Life’s Too Short, though)

I’m pretty sure that image is actually of an Andy Rooney impersonator from one of those “rent a ‘celebrity’ for your birthday party!” companies

This remake better be set in 2041 so they can feature the 50-year Storm again

Here’s something that’s been bugging me, but a friend offered a possible explanation… curious what you guys think:

So the Los Pollos Hermanos trucks from the opening scenes of the previous two episodes, the one that got shot to hell before Mike shot those guys, and the one where the two dudes got all carbon-monoxided, how are those not attracting some kind of police/DEA suspicion? Mike was around for the first truck so maybe he arranged the cleanup, but with the second truck, the cartel grabbed one bucket of meth-filled chicken batter and left two dead bodies w/ M-16s, a truck full of bullet holes, and who knows how many buckets still containing meth, just sitting on the side of a highway. How did that avoid the APD or DEA’s attention?

One possibility that my friend brought up: Maybe Gus’s “concerned citizen” act and charity checks are a front for paying off the DEA dudes? That would explain why, after Hank laid out a pretty convincing case about the air filter and the weird European shell company that owns Los Pollos Hermanos, the two guys were just like “yeah cool story bro” and he had to bring out the gus’s-fingerprint-in-gale’s-apartment bombshell to get their attention. If they’re being paid to look the other way, it’d be in their interest to try to discount his theory. Also explains the phone call tipoff that Hank got before the ax-wielding twins came to try to kill him.

I realize that “breaking raw air” was a typo, but it’s ALSO my new favorite way to describe farting. (because I am 12)

You were right. The publishing business is too competitive.

I forget the name… I think there’s a sticker on the back of the cards with the name/address, so I’ll look at them when I get home. It’s in dumbo somewhere.

The Ryan White thing reminded me of this… there’s a store in Brooklyn where they sell art made by autistic & retarded adults and the proceeds help fund their center, and this one guy makes these greeting cards with random celebrities hanging out with each other wishing you happy birthday, merry xmas, etc. (“Shaquille O’Neal and Michael Jackson wish you Happy Halloween!”). They are all amazing, but this is my favorite:

“Mötley Crüe remembering their friend Ryan White, who died of AIDS in 1990, wishing you a happy birthday! Ryan White RIP”

Best $5 I’ve ever spent.

Yeah, and I guess I run into* the asshole-car double parking more than I do the delivery-truck double parking b/c I mostly ride in Brooklyn and try to avoid riding in Manhattan whenever possible.

* “run into” meaning “encounter,” not “run into” meaning

 +15Posted on Jun 9th, 2011 | re: Bicyclist Gets A Ticket, Makes A Silly Video (73 comments)

no I understand, but it seems like the NYPD should ticket them as aggressively as they’ve been ticketing cyclists recently, because it’s not always commercial delivery trucks. In Brooklyn, tons of people just leave their car in the bike lane for 15 minutes while they go into a friend’s house to pick something up or whatever, and I’ve never seen a cop giving a ticket to someone blocking the bike lane. Meanwhile, I have a friend who walked his bike to the curb, but still had the back wheel on the sidewalk when he started to ride away, and got ticketed for “riding on the sidewalk.” (“Good anecdotal evidence, very relevant and persuasive.” – Everyone)
