Mitt Romney thinks it disgraceful to apologize for America. I think it's useful. Yesterday I left a frying pan on a hot burner. "You left a pan on the stove top. Now the pan is ruined and the kitchen is full of smoke," my wife said.
As helpful as these articles are in telling you what to do, I find that they're lacking a bit in the way of telling us readers what NOT to do. So if you want to send a guy running for the hills (or for another guy) without ever looking back, here's what I suggest.
Dog owners often claim that their dogs are just like kids, and thanks to a raft of new products and services, they're getting closer to being right.
With only three weeks to go before (1), all eyes are focused on President Obama and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney as they prepare for their second presidential debate (2).
My entire life, I've wanted to be best friends with Ethan Hawke. There's just something about him that seems super cool. Like, he isn't even trying to be cool either, he just is.
I suppose it's not too surprising that a couple of the female cast members were going to have difficulty getting airtime considering how seamlessly Christina Applegate blended into the cast.
We've got a real slobberknocker for you tonight, folks -- the long awaited rematch between the heavyweight champion of the free world, Barack "Bam Bam" Obama, and the challenger, Nature Boy Mitt Romney.
If you use a straw to drink soda out of a can, chances are you're doing it all wrong.
We put together a list of all these places, be it online or offline, where you can watch tomorrow's debate. And who else will be there with you, cheering on the beautiful misery of it all:
When you're standing in the store with a line of people behind you and the cashier mumbles something like quatromilledoscientoscinquenta and it sounds like quatromillcan'tyouevencountyoustupidstupidgringo, it's a bit nerve-wracking.
While C.K.'s decision to push back the fourth season of Louie will certainly give him time write poignant, funny scripts, it's also going to drive anticipation and expectations even higher than normal.
Now, that's a debate! After a weak wonkfest last week, Vice President Joe Biden and Republican Congressman Paul Ryan traded uppercuts and right crosses, not light taps (you can almost hear the brakes tighten on the Romney momentum).
If you are hoping to combine your love of pagan holidays and a more unusual take on politics, this is the year to do it!
I'm dedicating this week's edition of Weeklings! to my 10 favorite LGBTers in popular culture. Some are Hollywood royalty, others are respected authors, and still others are modern-day hitmakers who wear jeans well. They're all godsends to me.
I certainly appreciate the more tolerant attitudes. When I first started comedy eight years ago, nothing was scarier than going into comedy clubs not knowing if people were going to jump me after my show because I'd told a joke about having feelings for my best friend in college.
Pundits agree that the new participant, quickly identified as The Smile, influenced the debate in unforeseen ways. More surprising even than the rogue candidate's ability to enter the debate hall was his bizarrely amused demeanor during discussions of grave topics.
