Watching Rent, the most depressing holiday movie...
Fun fact: it’s the first movie I saw alone with my husband before we started dating. Remembering that night always makes me smile.

"How I Met Your Mother"
Ted: Barney, the three days [before you call a girl] rule is completely insane. Whoever came up with that?
Barney: Jesus.
Marshall: Barney. Don’t do this. Not with Jesus.
Barney: Seriously. Jesus started the whole “wait three days thing.” He waited three days to come back to life. It was perfect. If he’d waited only one day, a lot of people wouldn’t have even heard that he died. They’d be all, “Hey, Jesus. What up?” And Jesus would probably be like, “ ‘What up?’ I died yesterday!” And then they’d be all, “Uhh, you look pretty alive to me, dude.” And then Jesus would have to explain how he was resurrected and how it was a miracle, and then they would be like, “OK... whatever you say, bro.” And he’s not going to come back on a Saturday. Everybody’s busy! Doing chores, working the loom, trimming their beards. No. He waits the exact right number of days: three.
Ted: Okay, I promise I’ll wait three days. Just stop talking.
Barney: Plus it’s Sunday! And everyone’s in church already. They’re all in there, “Oh no, Jesus is dead.” And then, bam! He bursts through the back door, runs up the aisle, everyone’s totally psyched. And F.Y.I., that’s when he invented the high-five.
Oh, baby, please. Give a little respect to me.

The problem with SNL's writing:
It’s like the writers will get a really funny idea, and they start writing, and the sketch is funny for about 30 seconds. Then it kind of falls flat. But it keeps going. And going.
They were on a roll for a while last season, but lately not so much.

Seriously, Goldberg. GO FUCK YOURSELF. What the fuck do you know about this topic? How can you be so arrogant as to assume you know how ANY woman would react to such a decision? You think there’s never been a conservative,...

The old arc of a news story went like this: News happens. Media cover news. Audience reacts, then turns in for the night. For the past several years, however, there’s been another step added to the end of the process: being held to account for our faults by a comedy show with a sharp eye and a sharp tongue. How did we live without it?

I’m afraid of house cats (it’s a long story), so this was basically the most terrifying dream ever. She kept hunting me and trying to attack me, and my parents were all, “She’s so sweet. How could you be afraid of her?” What do you think this dream means?
