50′s dinner? I thought they were making a 50′s DINER downstairs (in honner of it!). Else why would they have used so many exclamation points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hilarious. I now know why I’m certifying to become an English teacher: I must do my part to save people from their lack of knowledge.

I’m really curious as to what would be involved in a “50s dinner” I can only imagine jell-o salad and canned vegetables prepared in a pressure-cooker.

I agree, Eric’s comments about dumb comments are the best part. Also, I wonder if the huntin’ and fishin’ guy was trying to sound like a dumb hick instead of being one. I can’t imagine someone being serious about the “thrill of killing”. Yes, people love the thrill of hunting, or they use other words more agreeable to the public. It read like someone writing a dumb response expecting it to be quoted rather than actually writing what they feel.

This post is one of the most horrifying things I’ve ever read.

Houston, we have a literacy problem…

I always enjoy your comments about the posts even more than the posts themselves, so I was a bit disapointed that most of these posts don’t include your comments.

At the top of this post, after I read that Eric would be re-posting dumb comments, I thought to myself “Oo-kay, I’m done commenting on this site,” especially after I recently made a lame typo that I didn’t notice until after my comment posted.

Then I read some of the actual dumb comments and realized that I probably don’t have anything to be worried about.

Hmm, I liked TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES.

And I was in my early-20s when it came out…

Please don’t take that response to The Marine to be representative of all wrestling fans. I’m a fan, and while I won’t get into a whole diatribe about how fans are smarter than everyone thinks and all that, I will say that most of John Cena’s fans are kids and women.

And I hate it when people try to defend a movie by pointing out how much money it makes. Like you said seven months ago, Eric, An Inconvenient Truth was more successful than most wide-release movies playing at the same time, despite making considerably less money.
