Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I mean, some people change a lot as they age, but Paul McCartney looks exactly the same!

And that doesn't seem suspicious to you? Hmm?

I want to know why if there are multiple sets of "Beatles" why did they ever "break-up"? Just get a new John. Or give the John you've got a new Yoko. It's just poor conspiracying if you ask me.

There's a fine line between social support and pedantry.

Notice how carefully I avoided a construction involving "your" or "you're".

Better to take no chances.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Your problem is you're a dumbass, not an asshole.

Only if it includes a link to download the movie of the bloodbath that will ensue when we get to the chapter titled "Oxford Comma: Bane or Blessing?"

I can see it now. The Wars of the Commas, one community divided by passion, united in conviction, punctuating to save the world ...

Re: Beatles deniers

The thing about looking at the pictures of McCartney and other Beatles faces and their differences, is that I wonder if the people's brains would combust if they saw the many faces of Joan Rivers, Rose McGowan, David Hasselhoff, Val Kilmer, or Halle Berry's original nose?
