    Oh man, that pissed me off when I heard about that from my buddy. He streams his programming from Netflix and he mentioned it to me.
    I watch my MWC episodes on TBS in the early mornings, so I still get the great intro song, but when I went to watch it on Netflix, it was such a letdown. They could have at least gotten imaginative with the theme song, changed it it around some, but I guess laziness or restrictions played into it.
    This made me almost as angry as them excising a lot of songs on the WKRP reruns/dvd's.

    Seriously. I need a breathalyzer on my iPhone and my computer. I liked EVERY status on FB last night. I apparently texted utilikilt all night. I even sent a dirty email. I'm assuming this was all while naked too as that is how I woke up this morning.

    Wine is so tasty and I'm less emo when I drink it.

    Two bottles. My tolerance is fairly high. Unless I don't eat, which was the case last night.

    I probably signed onto chat...but noone was there. Jerks.

    Is it wrong that I read this and immediately thought of the chick from Raiders of the Lost Ark?

    I know your mancrush, MeltedMetalGlob, would be glad to show up and burn down your bar.

    I'm disappointed. I was hoping to collect another "gross".

    King Estate Pinot is the wine I had last night. Weird....creepy.

    You can still send me that case.

    Probably licensing bullshit. I know that one of my favorite '80s TeeVee action shows, Tour of Duty, had to replace all the '70s classic rock music when it went to DVD. Major bummer for us fans. You can't have a Vietnam war drama series without all that groovy music... it just doesn't feel right.

    Ah, that reminds me of my dating years, when "the bar burned down" was the excuse the girl would give to stand me up.

    Why is it that our top-selling books are so excruciating to read?

    And so loooong.....

    What are you talking about, Nigel? 50 Shades of Grey is so goddamn easy it practically reads itself.

    I think I'm finally giving into elitism. Life's too short for all this trash.

    C'mon, Baraka_Guru...

    With my literary sensibilities, forcing myself to read crappy writing is like binge drinking boilermakers but replacing the beer and whiskey with windshield washer fluid and Clorox, respectively.

    Not taking reality seriously requires humour or escapism, not beating oneself over the head with sensationalized schlock produced by a hack.

    This explains why I read so many cheesy romance novels while doing my English degree.

    Sometimes when I try to type "insert comma," I end up typing "inert coma." I can confirm that these are indeed full-fledged Freudian slips.
