Re: [TV orNotTV] Re: Maron's WTF podcast with Kathy Griffin

If I'm understanding this correctly -- and I have no intentions of listening to the actual podcast, since either Maron or Griffin alone is enough to make my ears bleed, but the prospect of the two of them would be seizure-inducing -- Griffin is upset because, following a supporting role on a me

C'mon. She's the last daughter of Krypton (until further notice and/or retconning) -- and an orphan (until further notice and/or retconning). That's gotta make you a little down-in-the-dumps. On Friday, September 19, 2014 2:32:13 PM UTC-7, Kevin M. (RPCV) wrote: > > I'm guessing she will be dar

When I was in college attaining my useless communications degree (seriously, don't get a com. degree), we reviewed countless such studies. And the rule still applies. There's a reason George Clooney is popular in movies, and it isn't because men like him. Comedian Bill Burr has a poignant bit that
