"Women CEOs" still bothers me.
I told my DH "$20 says Mary Barra is one of the answers"
I was wrong. At least that means there are more than 5 "girl" CEOs out there!

Why can't someone do something about Coral's hair?

That was annoying as hell. My mother died 7 years ago, also unexpectedly. Should I still be whingeing about it? I miss her a lot but jeebus. I manage to go entire days without obsessing about her memory. Maybe I'm just not so nice :)
Those ear thingies ick me out. What are those earlobes going to look like in 20 years? (hint: not good)
I think Jasmin got robbed in any case.

No, the make is Ram, the model would be 1500, 2500, 3500, etc.
Actually, our company does "Ram; Ram Pickup". The other stuff (1500, etc) goes into a different field. But to me "Pickup" isn't really a model!

But apparently HER man is just as much of an idiot as she is.
Many years ago, I worked as a service writer. Men THINK they know about cars. 90% of them do NOT.
And if you blow an engine in a car, you are not getting a new one unless you order it very specifically. They are rare. And they got a major bargain for the rebuilt engine they got.
That was a weird case. Really wanted a shitty Lexus, I guess.

Do you think the people at Dodge Ram believe the Hunger Games are real?
Actually, they're trying too hard to get people to stop saying "Dodge Ram". Brilliant marketing move in 2009 to make them "Ram" trucks, not Dodge anymore.
So if you're in the business, like me, and you have a table that defines make and model of a vehicle, it's Ram Ram.
Fiat Chrysler definitely has some issues in the marketing department.

And no way are the actors in that commercial old enough to have graduated in 1965. 75 maybe.
Yikes, you're harsh. I graduated HS in 1973 and I do not look that old!

Interesting how Martin could get into East Germany so easily...the border was set up to keep people IN, not out, for the most part.

Perhaps Coke is returning to its original formula?
NOW with 29% more Cocaine!

Plus, insurance is retroactive to the time you needed it but didn't have it, right?
Oh sure. That's one of LIberty Mutual's new ads

I need the lyrics to Mr Fischoeder's bourbon song.
Thanks, Internet :)

Will FN pull out their checkbook?
Ooh, that's intriguing. I wonder if CK signed any sort of non-compete when he got his severance package.
Although FN would probably not like ATK's reviewing style. If they didn't like one of the sponsor's products, The Network might put the kibosh on saying it on a show. And the idea that they're not biased is one of the more attractive aspects of the CK empire.
Someone on another board floated the idea of J Kenji Lopez Alt as next face of ATK. He used to work for Cook's Illustrated and is the owner of Serious Eats. He's got the chops and experience, don't know what he's like on camera.

Anyhow, I'm convinced that if you name your child Crystal (or any variation thereof), stripping is the profession she will most likely have.
Ha. Reminds me of an old Seinfeld routine about naming your kid Jeeves

As if you are going to lose or be a loser on Christmas morning if you don't buy the cool gifts at Best Buy
Just like Christ intended. Those Starbucks cup people would have a lot more credibility if they went after commercialism. Full Charlie Brown!

since the internet is the greatest boon to scammers since the beginning of time.
But...everything on the Internet is TRUE. I read it on the Internet.

I hope Christy can finally catch a break here somewhere. There's a fine line between realism and utter bleakness.

Unlike JJ, I don't fault anyone for marrying on the cheap. Hell, we're running off to Vegas to do it,
Congrats, Teebax, and if you borrow me some money I'd be glad to come :)
Seriously...we got married in Vegas in 1988 (at the Wee Kirk o'the Heather. Just as cheesy as it sounds!).
Still married. Marriage is the thing, not the wedding.

It used to "not be Christmas until..."
the Hersheys Kisses bellringing ad. Still cute after all these years (first aired in 1989)

OMG, the seasoning packet...that was just a blow to any shred of cooking cred she may have had. Hell, I'd rather she used Manwich sauce. I guess because of her sitcom, she's supposed to have some knowledge of what it's like to be one of the 47%, LOL
Plus I happen to know her personal politics .Don't care for her. I will leave at that.totally with you on that. I have to set it aside to watch The Middle as I think the show is charming

It's astonishing that this is still on the air. I really enjoyed last night's episode.

How would the mother not know her child was skipping school/failing?
one last note on this: my kid was in high school, and we'd drop him off on the way to work. We'd sit and watch him go into the building. As soon as we left, he'd walk home and call himself in as sick (Hi, this is Mr Smith, Joe's dad...). Finally after a couple of weeks, a concerned teacher called to ask how he was doing, being so sick and all.
Ultimately he ended up at alternative school. Sometimes the parents actually do try to do the right thing, but our son is as oppositional as they come.
So I could see a kid scamming the system for a while, but not forever.

Favorite Commercials
in Commercials
Yes. The phrase "office team building" should NEVER be used without "stupid" preceding it.
