OK, I think the Fawcett and Jackson things are obviously off limits for jokes, but "Jeff Goldblum is still alive" would be good on SNL -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 18:39 4

    - No, but a year or two of Lawson as the backup is smart. -- nm - TFox Jun 25, 18:35
    - No...3 more years -- nm - Stewie Jun 25, 18:35
  - [deleted] 1

Me to Kim: I think the Hawks are going to get Ty Lawson, because the only team in front of them has already drafted 2 PGs. - David Jun 25, 18:19 10
- I can live with Teague, but I really wanted Lawson. -- nm - David Jun 25, 18:25

  - It's too early to say they are crazy, because who knows what they are doing, but... - TFox Jun 25, 18:21 7
    - They're going with a small-ball lineup. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 25, 18:27 1
      - And Harlem Globetrotters style with three basketballs in play at once. -- nm - David Jun 25, 18:27
    - traded to Denver for the rights to a Charlotte pick was just said on espn -- nm - Beaker Jun 25, 18:22 4
      - Interesting. I wonder if they mean Gerald Henderson? - TFox Jun 25, 18:26 3
        
        No, Denver already had a Charlotte pick. It was dealt straight up for Lawson. -- nm - David Jun 25, 18:27 2
        
        Oh, in a future draft. OK, got it. Makes sense. -- nm - TFox Jun 25, 18:29

      - I have to confess though. After one Smithwick's, the rest have been Michelob Amber Bock. (It could be worse.) -- nm - mara Jun 25, 18:39
I don't own any MJ music. I liked MJ's music, but it was hard for me to separate who he was from what he created. - TWuG Jun 25, 18:13 6
- Was I misinterpreted? my "superior Jackson poll" was simply superior to other Jackson polls. -- nm - Max Jun 25, 18:18 1
  - (the only inferior people here are those who like The Wiz) -- nm - Max Jun 25, 18:19
- you can't feel "superior" for not owning something - Danedukenuuk Jun 25, 18:15 3
  - You can feel superior if you take sinful amounts of pride in upholding your own moral standard. - Beryllium Jun 25, 18:17 2
    - not having a handgun does not make me feel superior - Danedukenuuk Jun 25, 18:20 1
      - Being proud of taking a stand and not owning a handgun can lead to feeligns of moral superiority. Surely you've heard the phrase 'moral superiority'? -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 18:21
"The Burning Bed" is one of those movies where I am glad I saw, but never want to see again - amoxy Jun 25, 18:12

Okay, so who do you cast for the inevitable MJ biopic? - Dr.Vermin Jun 25, 18:10 7
- Honestly I think a female actor could nail the role better than a guy. Not a joke. Jada Pinkett? -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 18:18
- It was asked, but everyone suggested white people, IIRC -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 18:12 5
  - Rob Lowe seems to be a ringer -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 25, 18:49
  - I think (seriously) that's what MJ wanted. -- nm - the liioulu with whatever Jun 25, 18:18 1
    - I was just thinking that as I posted - sort of a Chaz Bono type thing. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 18:20
  - Jamie Foxx was the best "real" answer IMO -- nm - Beaker Jun 25, 18:13 1
    - aside from my other suggestion(s), the only other alternative I can think of is an I'm Not There style take on it -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 18:15
Wonder if there will be Thriller dance flash mobs this weekend. -- nm - Dano Jun 25, 18:09 2
- in Tehran? That would be sweet. -- nm - Max Jun 25, 18:16 1

Kurt Loder looks devastated. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 18:02 3
- he did the same when Cobain died. -- nm - loosilu on mobile Jun 25, 18:04 2
  - I've always respected Kurt. I think he loves/understands the industry like very few people can. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 18:11 1
    - agreed, he always came across as a real music journalist, IMO. -- nm - loosilu on mobile Jun 25, 18:18
i cantbelieve mara didnt already respond to my tweet> -- nm - loosilu on mobile Jun 25, 18:02 2
- *goes to check* Oh! I saw it, but I guess I couldn't come up with anything insightful. That's a good tweet, seriously. -- nm - mara Jun 25, 18:03 1
  - SWEEEEET TWEEEEEET!!!!! -- nm - The Tonight Show Jun 25, 18:10
So are we going to watch More To Love on Fox this summer? -- nm - Dano Jun 25, 18:01
if i thought jim was acting superior, i would totally call his tuckus out directly. ;p -- nm - b! Jun 25, 17:56
In many ways, I'm treating this like I did Kurt's death. Overloading on their music, reminding myself why when I was growing up I felt they were good. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 17:55
The Amare deal is NOT done, still just a rumour...my bad. -- nm - Beaker Jun 25, 17:54
Yo, bag on pop all you want. But bagging on Michael's pop is like bricking in the mouth of the Music Deity. - TFox Jun 25, 17:54 12
- He tainted his music with his weird behavior. The sleepovers with kids is just wrong wrong wrong. - Redmond Jun 25, 18:08
- Judgey McJudgerson - Danedukenuuk Jun 25, 17:57
- I'm not bagging on it. I'm just saying it's not what I buy. -- nm - mara Jun 25, 17:56 9
  - Not you, silly. I' -- nm - TFox Jun 25, 17:57 8
    - m just saying. -- nm - TFox Jun 25, 17:57 7
      - it is virtually impossible to discuss the quality of MJ music with an MJ fan - Danedukenuuk Jun 25, 18:06 6
        
        I wouldn't call myself a fan, I onw none of his albums, I just recognize and acknowledge greatness. -- nm - Beaker Jun 25, 18:08 5
        
        well im perhaps to old for the music and i can't see beyond the emptyness - Danedukenuuk Jun 25, 18:13 4
        
        But you're wrong. My opinion is better and much more correct. -- nm - Beaker Jun 25, 18:14 3
        
        *hopes everyone sees the IM smilie face :) * -- nm - Beaker Jun 25, 18:24

    - I bet you do! -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 18:09
    - I'm wearing one of my spaghetti strap tanks and baggy boxers. I smell nondescript. -- nm - mara Jun 25, 17:58 16
      - baggy boxes rule! especially the paisley kind -- nm - 'lia Jun 25, 18:00 15
        
        Mine are *ridiculous* -- paisley, flowers, other weird shapes, in purple, navy, baby blue, and a couple of weird greens. -- nm - mara Jun 25, 18:02 14
        
        Yes! boxers are a bad habit i can't give up, for formal occasions i put a safety pin on the fly -- nm - 'lia Jun 25, 18:08

        (I should say here that I'm of Scandinavian heritage and do not tan. So don't be alarmed by the blinding whiteness.) -- nm - mara Jun 25, 18:20 6
        
        Mine look about the same. - the liioulu with whatever Jun 25, 18:27 1
        
        The weather here would be excellent for tanning (or burning, in my case). -- nm - mara Jun 25, 18:43
        
        That is HOT! My legs are whiter than yours. Norwegian and I live in a place that gets 19 days of sun a year. - Redmond Jun 25, 18:22 3
        
        Heh, if you think that's hot, well, you're just horny. Enjoy it while you can, it'll be deleted in a few hours. -- nm - mara Jun 25, 18:40 2
        
        Already saved on my hard drive. Delete away :) -- nm - Redmond Jun 25, 18:42 1

  - where the eff are you going? what about *our* needs? -- nm - the haterstown campus loves mandy lane Jun 25, 17:54 1

  - I need to ring my HR rep very quickly, and then I am *all* about the porch. ten, maybe fifteen? (Im freezering beer, too.) -- nm - the haterstown campus loves mandy lane Jun 25, 17:53 2

    - It's like $11 here. But holy Christmas, Stone makes kick-anus beer. -- nm - TFox Jun 25, 17:57 5
      - I paid $10 a six in PA (buying beer is weird there), but had I opted for cases it would have been less. god, I love stone IPA. I even love the super - the haterstown campus loves mandy lane Jun 25, 18:06 3
        
        Stone Ruination might, *might* be my favorite beer on earth. It gets competition from Dogfish Raison D'Etre. And Dale's Pale,with the canning bonus. -- nm - TFox Jun 25, 18:09 2
        
        I like dogfish 90 more than r d'e, but I see where you're coming from. dogfish 90 is top five for me. - the haterstown campus loves mandy lane Jun 25, 18:14 1

      - you have no idea. $33 a case in PA. hello, crossing state lines with liquor. hello, worth the fine if I get caught. -- nm - the haterstown campus loves mandy lane Jun 25, 17:55 2
        
        I'm guessing a case is 24? Cases are 12 packs in NB. -- nm - Shaun - 2008 Caveman Champion Jun 25, 17:56 1
