If that's a facial hairstyle one encounters enough to require it's own classification, I'd dub it The "Fucking hell, I really need to move".

This... this is the best post I've ever seen (on the 10/15 Savage Love):
1 β’ Replyβ’Share βΊ Avatar Brainlock Robot King β’ 10 hours ago I kinda feel ya. I've been back living with my sister for almost a year and a half, waiting on Disability. My next court is in three weeks, and we are past the point of no return, if I don't get it. It's been three+ years since I filed in August, so I've been banking what I'm owed since then = nice chunk of change. She asked me the other week what my plans were, if I wanted to move out on my own or what? "Ideally, yes" and explained I'm questioning whether I can live on my own again, or will need a roommate. She already admitted that buying the "second cheapest place in the county" wasn't such a bright idea, as we're ten minutes from town either direction and half an hour from any decent shopping. First choice for roomie: my cousin and her wife, but they're still in party mode on their days off. second choice, a casual friend who seems to have a problem keeping a regular residence, constantly crashing at friends. Everyone else has family or to young/old. and my aunt is crazy cat lady who doesn't like her daughter-in-law "because they can't procreate", despite the fact her second marriage was basically forced by his church and lasted six weeks, but that's perfectly fine! LOL
Anywho, I've already been pricing motorized chairs on CL, but I can't get one here due to terrain and the fact I can barely fit through the doors, now, much less her remodeling mess (we only have kitchen sink at moment, my toaster oven and microwave, and she cleans off 'A' stove burner on occasion. plus, her menagerie: pigs in the house. I wish I was kidding.).
I ran into a friend at Walmart last week that I was telling about this, she could see how much trouble I was having sitting in the store scooter even if she wasn't an EMT. She questioned what I could afford, and I told her I'd buy a decent used mobile, which is plenty for me. Just so long as I'm not stuck next door to another fucking meth kitchen. I lost track of how many times I had to call cops on people vandalizing my property or throwing hams at side of my trailer at 2am, thanks to those fucktards! (that trailer is still dented, btw! I know it's had several owners since I left and should have been condemned when I moved out!)

Great article, but... I HIGHLY doubt that Grisham's friend got sent to jail for looking at naked 16 year olds.

Has Gary X. said he was going to do the Commies again? I'm sure it's a lot of work for him. I haven't seen him around the a.v. club much lately--the one and only time I went over to the other site *waves hand dismissively* he was there in the comments for their review of the new Birdman movie, alongside other beloved a.v. clubbers like Scrawler and Miller. I don't know if that's becoming a regular thing.

I'm not making fun of anyone with this, but the following exchange, to me, was priceless. On this Week's Savage Love, on first dates and awkwardness:
ENKIDUM: Yeah, that was what I was trying to get at with the "meta-artificial" thing. But, you know, it does at least open the door towards you both being at least a tiny bit genuine, even if it's only genuinely embarrassed.
If that doesn't work, praise her boobs. I find that really breaks the ice.
MONTYPARK: "Praise her boobs" seriously? That sounds like a recipe for getting a drink thrown in the face.
ENKIDUM: No, not seriously. Was doing my standard "end it with something stupid". Which is another great strategy for first dates!
LACK OF NAME: I find the most erotic part of a woman is the boobies.

In all honesty the only time I think that way is when I nearly sign legitimate work related emails as Nudeador (which has happened on more than one occasion). Other than that the only difficulty I have with this is keeping minuet continuity details straight. The names of fictional characters that I created whole-cloth (as opposed to reappropriated pop culture characters from the 1980s), for example, I frequently have to sift through Disqus to locate if I desire to use them again.

Probably not commie material, but this little riposte demonstrates that sometimes the one liners cut the deepest (from the Nightcrawler review):
Mike D'Angelo β’ 7 hours ago The grade on this is wrong at the moment. Should be B, not B-.
ZZZ β’ 7 hours ago Hey man, don't complain about the grade just because you don't agree with it.

I propose that we add a new Commie category for "Best Worst NSFW link". First nomination: How do you sleep at night, Pugs?

Of course that'd happen the year AFTER I not only shared a link with underwear that ONLY cover the penis and leave the balls hanging free, but consequently got an AD for those underwear to be the most frequently viewed sidebar ad on AVC for nearly a month!

Snidely Q. Dooshbaghe disqus.com/home/discussion/avclub/michelle_maclaren_is_in_talks_to_direct_ltigtwonder_womanltigt#comment-1691532355In response to my posting of the Red Letter Media Prometheus video. " What's most funny about that Youtube video is that those two fellows very accurately reflect the intellectual capacities of all the blathering, self satisfied boobs who cite those elements as logical and rational flaws in the story. That's exactly how I see all the arrogant, self righteous dullards who loudly celebrate their own mental shortcomings by so confidently denigrating Prometheus. See, if you pay careful, close attention, with all your remaining, if faulty cognitive faculties, those questions are answered within the film itself, and they're answered rather convincingly and eloquently and even comically. Butβas I just stipulatedβyou've got to be paying attention to what's actually occurring and especially to what's being said if you hope to detect and receive and appreciate the myriad subtle clues and hints which Scott provides. Nearly every key point which some oblivious, loud mouthed cretin has raised as evidence of the film's idiocy are, in fact, proof of Scott's astonishing creative vision in updating and expanding the fascinating philosophical questions he first raised in his original film. Problem is most people are so lazy, so conditioned to having answers handed to them, and are incapable of or unwilling to expend much mental energy pursuing the faint but irresistible trail which Ridley laid down. Even when the director supplies a blatant, glaringly obvious device in the form of that curious Rubics Cube holographic projector the audience is somehow still flummoxed for how to mentally approach his ingenious, revelatory cinematic puzzle. Poor idiots. Why would the biologist run away from perhaps the most remarkable biological discovery in the history of mankind?!! It's revealed why in the film, if you paid attention. How could that timid biologist and gruff geologist get lost even though they had those detailed electronic maps and were in contact with Prometheus?!! It's satisfactorily answered in the film, and it's actually funny, intentionally so. But again, very careful attention had to be paid in order to detect the subtle inferences which explain their comically pathetic behavior. It's all in the film, right there on the screen and in the soundtrack. The film is the question and the answer. Well, except for a couple big, heavy, lofty questions which are purposely left open, and are the whole point of the film. But people seem to have their own precious ideas of what this film should or could have been, and these puny ideas seem to be obstructing their view. People's minds today are so completely clouded by such inconsequential, trivial matters that when confronted with a genuinely sincere and inspired inquiry into what it means to be a human being the people are not only stymied but are irked and agitated for having been asked the daunting question. It's not an easy question to answer, of course not, but more so it's a question that's very rarely correctly, properly, adequately posed. This is what Ridley has attempted, to adequately pose in purely cinematic terms the question of man's purpose and value, if any, upon this planet; this troubled, afflicted, imperilled, possibly doomed planet. Think back to that incredible experience of witnessing for the first time the staggeringly original and thrilling spectacle of Alien. Were you as gripped as I by a sense of awesome wonder and primal terror? Well, this film aims to reintroduce those rare and precious emotions into the Alien series, and to correct the gross errors of judgement which led the Alien franchise astray, starting with James Cameron's immensely popular but intellectually stunted, tone deaf sequel. Prometheus is not just the logical and rational next step in Ridley Scott's imagining of the Alien world, it's a quantum leap forward into a vastly more intelligent, mature, sophisticated, and worthwhile universe of artful, inspired cinematic creativity, you boobs. Hmmph." I'm ASSUMING sarcasm...

Best spam ever?
Also best reply to a spammer?
There's an actual person behind this marijuana spammer since they actually replied to someone, and they've been advertising their medicinal wares on lots of different articles today.

Does anyone know when the Commies begin? garyx said he might not do it this year as he isn't really a part of the AV Club community any more. I've seen him on the Dissolve, though, and he said he'd think about it. At least this is what I vaguely remember from memory, so GaryX I hope I have not misquoted you.

Much like those bastions of hope and inspiration, the Wu Tang Clan; Nudeador Viking the Third, is nothing if not for the children.
