Headline: Trump stepped on a rake and it slammed into his face, causing him to stumble around and step on a different smaller rake, which slammed into his balls

Comment: He probably owns stock in rake companies. He and his pals are getting rich

Been saying ‘Hold it, sister!’ for 30+ years as a result of this (big screen) version. The screwdriver gag is doubly perfect.

There was a time when ads would sometimes be genuinely good, like when Red Rock gave us new mini-episodes of Police Squad! I mean that "You there in the shadows!" gag is top notch.

I like how the best f/f romantic episode in DS9 is a beautiful, tragic tale of a love that reaches through different lifetimes and the best m/m romantic episode in DS9 is Garak being super mean to Bashir while he goes through drug withdrawal.

The most helpful any everyday technology has ever been is GMail's "You wrote 'Attached is' but no files are attached." reminder and I don't need any tech to be more intelligent than that.

Creating a film streaming service called "I Feel Like Watching an Old Film" and all it does is randomly start streaming a pre-1960s film when you open it. Free for use on rainy bank holidays.

The risk is that in the middle of a meeting Trump will blurt out "Marco, why don't you show me that those shoes are the size 14s I bought you, to show everyone how good I am at guessing shoe sizes" and then they're fucked

Something else that struck me about Blue Moon is that actors don't know how to smoke any more. There's two characters who smoke through the film but hold their cigarettes at a distance, as props, not as extra appendages as real smokers tend to. Real smokers forget the cigarette is even there
