    Official time of death is 22:53.

    Anyone else need a drink?

    You've been spending too much time among the p2p minions, how about pure lustful desire of the CH3CH2OH?

    The second episode was certainly weaker than the first although I guess that is sort of to be expected.

    The main "problem" was that it didn't really expand any of the burgeoning relationships and chose instead to hang the entire episode on a cheap plot contrivance.

    The cell phone throwing was good though.

    That's now two people on whom the "phone throw" made an impression, I barely noticed it and it certainly wouldn't make my highlight reel.
    Did that make him "cool" or "hip" to "stick it to the man" by abusing ubiquitous/disposable technology...was it a visual metaphor for the triumph of "spirit, man" over "corporate fat cats"?
    Did he throw it ironically or was it a spontaneous expression of the horror a modern man faces in an overly mechanized world?

    Or maybe it was something rarer, that revealing moment where Jeff Daniels realized he would never master Angry Birds, the core philosophy of Minecraft would forever elude him and his inbox was infected and sending stock tips to his closest friends.

    This requires frame by frame analysis.
    Somebody get on that.

    I dunno about the other guy but I just liked the violence.
    If was directing the scene though I would have had him first sit on a whoopee cushion to make it funnierer.

    I you directed the scene Rob Schneider would have made a cameo, amirite?
    He could have played the part of the whoopie cushion and probably fucking nailed it.

    I still don't understand why he didn't get at least a nomination for The Animal.
    I mean come on people , not only did he have to play a man but also mimic the actions of various animals.

    That was probably his greatest moment as an actor is you discount that racist portrayal of an Asian man in some Adam Sandler film that I am trying to forget.

    What about when he was a 14 year old Japanese girl, did that ever happen? I really, really need to know.

    There was also his racist portrayal of a Cajun man in Waterboy another Adam Sandler film you are trying to forget.

    All this talk of racism leads to the question, "Can one species be racist towards another?"
    Can a dog truly be racist, can a rose?

    Surely, you see where this is going.
