That is true. And after the war ended, the tobacco companies cranked out tons of print ads telling people that since rationing ended, they were free to smoke any brand they wanted again. I used to collect Life magazines and I was always amazed at the sheer number of cigarette ads. Regarding the Chevy ads -- Chevy needs to regard this thread as a focus group. Then the company would know that the current campaign is awful and it's time to go back to the drawing board. Also, Match.com needs to redo its ads. The idiot who goes around asking people about their love lives is an intrusive douche. "So you're meeting people on your own? How's that working out for you?" None of your damn business, asshole! He should get together with Cottonelle Bum Bitch.

Who were the people playing golf at the beginning? Rick and Michonne just happened to run into two random people playing golf? I understand the need for recreational sports during the ZA, but something as slow paced as golf is probably not the best choice. Although a nine iron does make for an excellent anti-walker weapon, as we saw in the "Beth and Daryl Go To A Country Club!" episode.

So Rick and Michonne fell into a high school, right? I'm guessing that the school's end of year carnival, like the one in "Grease," coincided with the ZA, someone got hungry while singing "chang chang changitty chang shoobop," it became a total bite fest, the National Guard was called in, but they were quickly overwhelmed by Walker T-Birds and Pink Ladies and it was the worst carnival ever. I'm thinking she was a candidate for "My 600-Pound Life" and was wearing a sheet or something.

I watched the Supersized (yes, a horrible name) version of this episode tonight just for the Charlie moments. Dude was wearing a T-shirt that said "Exercise? I thought you said extra fries!" Anyone else notice that?

In Nicole's honor today, I purchased a sandwich from Subway, took a few bites out of it then had a fit and threw it around my car.

Watching this episode, two things occurred to me: 1.) How heavy was that jar of pickles? Because Eugene held them for a long time and the jar looked heavy. He must be very strong. 2.) My cousin wears a pair of boots just like Negan's and they're both mouthy jerks. Oh, wait! There was a third thing! They Might Be Giants should totally record a version of "Easy Street."

Yeah, she'll get out of bed before sunrise to take a virtual spin class, but I bet for breakfast she throws some packets of Little Debbie mini muffins at her kids because she doesn't have time to cook something. Pffft.

This one gets big laughs in my household:

As an avid viewer of "Hoarders," I have to say the hoard on tonight's TWD was the worst I have ever seen. When Rick stole the wire cat sculpture, I expected one of the collective to break rank and run towards him screaming, "I had plans for that cat!"

I like to drink milk and I put half and half in my coffee ... but then an annoying animated cow shows up and slowly lets air out of a balloon to simulate the gas it gives me. Screw that damn cow. Speaking of cows, I saw an ad for those Little Debbie Mini Muffins that was pure bullshit. In a voice over, a mother says all five of her young daughters are gymnasts and since they're all walking on their hands all the time, they can eat stuff like mini muffins because they use a lot of energy. This is a terrible ad campaign and it should be scrapped. It makes these mothers look like they have just given up.

She should thank her lucky stars she's not a Duggar! ;)

That's OK. My girlfriend and I agreed that Dr. Now talks like how we imagine one of our cats would talk if he were human. "How y'all doing?" It almost looked like some sort of fungal infection. I liked Diana as well and I hope she continues to make progress. The meals that Megan made for her looked very filling and healthy. How lucky Diana is to have a niece who loves her so much she's willing to uproot her life and live elsewhere just to make sure her aunt is being looked after properly.

THIS! Why does the fact that a baby likes bananas require such Joker-ish laughter?

A real bore until the sequence with the wire slicing through the herd. I also really liked Ezekiel reciting Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech to the little boy. No matter how many times I hear it, it's still such an inspiring speech to listen to. The Billy Bob Thornton clone with the Chicklet teeth chews as much scenery as Negan. As for the Kingdom people, I don't know what to make of the guy who kind of looks like the Rent-a-Center Russell Crowe or the "Knight's Tale"-era Heath Ledger dude who's trying to learn Morgan's stick tricks.

Thank you, show. I have been walking around all day singing "I Beat That Bitch with a Bat."

I think this episode is the funniest of the series so far. The song parodies were making me laugh to the point of tears. For some reason the one that made me laugh the most was the "Life is a Highway" parody. Someone has got to make that song collection a reality. I think I still have room on my cassette tape rack for it.

It looked like in addition to her food issues Erica may have had a hoarding problem too. It seems Erica was really isolated from the world and that made me feel incredibly sad for her. I cannot imagine life without the love of family and the companionship of friends. However, she ticked me off when she was wailing about everyone else being able to eat what they wanted. No one, not even someone who runs marathons every day, can eat like Erica does and not have an enormous weight problem. Did she say she ate fudge cake every day? Fudge cake is good, but I think if I had it every day I'd get sick of it quick. Her flight from California must have been a nightmare for her. I'm sure she felt like she was on display the whole time.

What's Kate's deal? She grew up in the 80s and was exposed to the "Friday the 13th" franchise. She should know what happens to people who have sex at a camp!

I don't mind Oprah Winfrey that much, but the Weight Watchers commercial in which she declares "I LOVE CHIPS!" makes me Stabby McStabberson. I guess chips are the new bread for her.

Jenna Coleman and Tom Hughes are red hot as Victoria and Albert. I think flames were leaping from my TV at one point. Maybe I should put a call in to a technician to check on that. The wedding was beautiful and I liked that Victoria opted for the flowers instead of the tiara. What is it that Albert said during his wedding vows that caused a stir? Did he say something in German?

You guys are cracking me so consistently up today! Well, you know, there are facts and then there are alternative facts. I just hate the way the woman says water like wudder.

Hey, I think I would have fallen for Albert too. A guy who bears a passing resemblance to a young Daniel Day-Lewis who appreciates art, cares about the poor and can set my dog's broken leg? *fans self*

I've started skipping the beginning of the show because I'm deathly afraid they'll show that person who looks like he or she is growing genetically modified corn kernels in his or her fat folds getting bathed. I'm so glad The Walking Dead has tamed my gag reflex when it comes to looking at guts or that scene with Dr. Now stuffing her intestines back into her abdomen would have sent me to the toilet or at least with a case of the dry heaves. Why the repeated close ups of her dry and cracked feet? I could practically smell the fungus. Her whole family was just plain mean.

Thanks to Netflix and lots of rainy, wintry weekends, I've been re-watching the series from episode one. While binge watching this particular show, Don's epic philandering really starts to grate after a while. By the time he starts sleeping with Sally's former teacher, I'm thinking someone should have cut his dick off and boiled it in pig fat. I just finished up season 4. Don and Megan's marriage was doomed from the very beginning. He just wanted a babysitter he could sleep with and she just wanted to get married. They hardly even knew each other. Watching the series the first time, I was too blinded by my girl crush on Joan to realize what a horrible person she could be sometimes. My love for Lane Pryce still stands, but I cannot tolerate Duck Phillips and I can't comprehend why Peggy would want to sleep with him. This is not a good show to watch if your New Year's resolution is to quit smoking.

I know this is a show about quintuplet babies ... but I can't take all the crying! It drives me nuts! I'm just trying to figure out why the dad wants to style his hair like Tintin.
