How about this one: 14 year olds, bringing their babies trick or treating? The babies have no teeth, they're not eating the candy. And sorry, I don't give treats to parents (oh, okay, the occasional "I have a sick kid at home" rings true.).
When they become parents, 14-year olds forfeit the right to go trick or treating for themselves. These hormonal children ought to stay home with their babies instead of using them as a ruse to finagle candy from strangers. Hell, go to Walmart and buy a variety pack to satisfy any sugar cravings.

I talked myself out of Penelope and picked Salma Hayek, but all I could think of for Javier was "that guy who was in that movie with Daniel Day Lewis about blood and oil."
Bardem was also in No Country for Old Men as the hitman with the bowl haircut.

Whenever I see that entitled bitch in the credit report commercial who asks, "What else can you give me?," I automatically think of either a good slapping or a boot up her ass.

I only got the FJ because Cruz and Bardeem were the only married Spanish actors that I knew. The That's Shoe Biz category made me realize how fashion impaired I am. JOSH! will undoubtedly use his Jeopardy experiences in his stand up act. I'm sure that the stuffed animals in the basement will love it!

...I do not like having a large number of friends, in fact... I do not accept some... Others I deleted over time, due to the way they do and some inappropriate comments...! So I have chosen the best solution. I am happy for you because you are among my best friends... Now I see who will take the time to read this post until the end. Copy the text in your page. This is a little test, just to see who reads and those who share only without reading ! ... If you have read everything, select 'like' and then copy and paste into your profile, so I can even put a comment smile...
This is an excerpt of a very irritating missive of emotional blackmail. For one thing, I've been out of school for a while and thought I was finished with tests. She's happy for me because I made the cut as being among her best friends. Whoopee, I'm happier than a pig in shit! If I do the things that are required to maintain this friendship, she'll give me a comment smile--a win-win situation. Silly me, I thought friendship didn't hinge on doing what is basically a chain letter. Instead of getting bad luck for ignoring this exercise of conceit, I'll be on my friend's shit list. How fucking childish!

I suggest the FN combine Farmhouse Rules and Guy's Triple D shows and drive the audience stark, raving mad!
Only if they pull a Thelma and Louise in one of Guy's vintage cars.
I'd love to see Giada and Alton Brown be passengers in that ill-fated car.

Just when I thought she couldn't get more annoying, I saw the Halloween episode and she proved me wrong.
I caught the last five minutes. Was she dressed as Martha Washington?

Today, I ran into an episode of At The Table With that featured Sara Moulton, who's one of my favorites.
My local PBS affiliate started running episodes. She is such a refreshing change from all the gimmicky cooking shows that are on Food Network which takes us to...Marilu’s Simple Good Food.
Oh goody, another fading celebrity trying to reboot her career. Henner's recipes are few and far between. But she did cook crepes and bacon and sausage for her son and his hungry pals. She has a photographic memory and remembered the first time she made this recipe. Next she guested on friend Leeza Gibbons' radio show and later made her Spicy Salmon on a Spinach and Arugula Salad. Finally she and her family had a cookout which featured Turkey and Portobello Burgers. Fortunately her hubby (third and final marriage) did the grilling. And I thought Farmhouse Rules was bad about adding extra BS!

I'm self-taught and have done virtually all my knitting alone. Give me a good audiobook and a comfortable chair and I can amuse myself for hours.
I taught myself crocheting by checking out numerous books from the library. Thank you for all your good leads on places to buy yarn.

Of course, I'm hoping JOSH! isn't around long enough to evolve into a player who doesn't bother me.
Amen to that. If this bozo does any personal enrichment let it be on his own time, pretty please! I've laughed hysterically at all the JOSH! posts in a manner that would rival the ladies in this Tena commercial. He would be right at home on that old game show where contestants tried to stay away from the whammy. JOSH! has won enough to buy some decent clothes but one day is enough, now go the fuck away!
As one poster pointed out, Jeopardy needs to go back to classic categories. No more cutesy categories such as the ones where a certain group of letters is included in the answer and for the love of Lucy, no female oriented categories. I'm not asking for much, am I?

I have a hard time picturing "Fine China" as a Jeopardy! category. But I might do well at it.
For years I thought Those Darn Etruscans was a strange category until today's strange category, Olympic Demon-stration Sports. That one takes the cake for originality. I did rather well in that category though.
It is rather insulting to make "wimen" categories like Fine China, Cross Stitch, Doily Making, Vacuuming Then And Now, to say nothing of How To Please A Man. But I am not surprised.
I would enjoy a category about different crafts because I've tried many of them. There should be men categories such as How to Read Women, Famous Playboy Playmates, or Who Farted? I apologize in advance to males offended by my comment, merely mirroring Jeopardy gender stereotypes.

TV commercials have made me hate the word bundle. There are bundles for insurance, phone plans, or cable and satellite TV. I remember when bundle had a more pleasant connotation such as bundle of joy. Now whenever I hear the word, I want to bundle my head under a thick pillow and scream.
There's a commercial for Medicare supplemental insurance that drives me nuts. First, there's the incessant ukulele music that seems out of place in an insurance commercial unless it was set in Hawaii. Next, there's the clueless husband who looks like he would need instructions to pour piss out of a boot. When he heard that he would get to keep his current doctor, he exclaims, "You know, I love that guy!" Thank God, he has his wife to look out for him. Otherwise, he would stare at a carton of orange juice to make it concentrated.

The Cartwright home was a minor character on Bonanza. I've always loved the aesthetics of it both indoors and out. The exterior was unassuming and hardly flashy but projected a fortress-like quality. But the inside of it was something to behold. The fireplace seemed inviting enough for people to curl up in front of to read a good book. The furniture was made for relaxation; the non-ostentatious design indicated that. Mealtime was made more relaxing with the sturdy, inviting furniture provided. This was precisely the place for such characters as the Cartwrights.

Damn, just when I perfected my mad scientist laugh when Matt did his slow, creepy smile. I doubt if the new champ will be around long. Usually when somebody unseats a long running champion, they last one game. This happened to the lady who beat Ken Jennings. I'm waiting for Alex to call Michael the giant killer. It's kind of lame.

Watching Jeopardy! isn't as much fun as it used to be. At what point do they pull the plug on Matt? After 100 wins? 200?
Even Ken Jennings whom I consider the greatest Jeopardy champ of all time lost after 70+ games. I totally blanked out on Dr. Seuss but knew Howl on FJ. It's a shallow victory but I got a FJ right that Matt got wrong. Still Dr. Seuss ignorance is no excuse for someone who minored in English. I only know about Cat In the Hat because I read it to my son.

Since I didn't know the answer for FJ, I was surprised that all three contestants got it correct. *Face palm* The Bayeaux Tapestry must be pretty much common knowledge, only I was ignorant about it. This was the same feeling that I had about last year:s FJ answer of Scheherazade. Jeopardy is great for exposing people to new facets of knowledge.

Since when has ordering a pizza become such an ordeal? Enough with the emoji girl and the dumb shit with both fists through computers! There are such outlandish methods of obtaining a pizza such as calling an order in or even--horrors!--ordering at the store and waiting for it to be cooked. But that would be logical.

So Grandpa Garvey is going to Australia. Frankly I'm glad because his character was the TV version of nails on a chalkboard. His storyline seemed independent of the rest of the show. I wish that the ghost of Patti went to Australia, too.
Why does the reverend feel like he has to be a stone's throw from the church? It's not like they're running a hospital and he's a doctor there. When the Garveys looked at what 3 million bought, the expression royal screwing probably came to mind.

Hate-watching is a pastime that many refer to as a form of cruel and unusual television punishment that occurs when "you watch a show you wouldn't choose to watch for any reason other than to mock it for its awfulness.--TV Guide
I'll go first. My go-to shows to hate-watch are Dr. Oz, Pioneer Woman, Dr. Phil, and The Kitchen. For classic TV, I watch Gilligan's Island and The Waltons.

After a few years, I've decided to crochet again. Man, have yarn prices gone up! Does anybody know of inexpensive places (online) that have good prices on yarn? I checked out smileysyarn.com online and I didn't like their shipping policies.

I don't know if it's nepotism or incestuous, but Pawn Stars begat American Restoration begat Counting Cars ... is there another show coming out of Las Vegas? I don't keep track.
I'd seriously watch a show involving "Beard of Knowledge," Mark Hall Patton. He's the only one who gives us even a glimmer of history on Pawn Stars. Once History got a hold of him though, he'd be sporting a doo rag and calling everybody brother.

Fan Duel combines two things that I hate: sports and gambling. That's not the main reason that I loathe these commercials however. The commercials play into people's need for a get rich quick scheme. Why, all you need to do is play and pick up your money later. Easy peasy. "We're huge - $75 million+ paid out to winners a week this season." With that kind of money being paid out, we know Fan Duel is making a killing. The majority of Fan Duelers lose more money than they ever win. I don't gamble so my view of this is probably skewed.
I saw Kenny Rogers in a Geico ad and all I can say is WTF? His cosmetic surgery has left him looking like a marionette, a grotesque one at that. But the top prize for f'ed up surgery has to go to Rich Little. Yikes!

What do you all think Matt is thinking with that slow smile? Is he trying to be funny?
I tried doing a slow smile like Matt's but my face wouldn't cooperate. It's sad that I do silly things like this in my leisure time, Isn't it? What's worse is I'll never be a creepy Jeopardy contestant.
Jeopardy!, for me, was always a cut above other game shows. It's classiness was what distinguished it. I miss the days when Jeopardy! contestants dressed and acted with decorum.
Several years ago, a female contestant wore a glittery blouse that was worn off the shoulder. On TWoP, I expressed my dismay about her attire and some readers found nothing wrong with her blouse. To me, she was dressed for a cocktail party. Call me a fuddy duddy!

"UNCLE!" Yup, even I was rooting for Matt today because Erik In The Middle...ummmm - no.
For some reason, he reminded me of a less cool version of Saul Goodman in Better Call Saul. What in the hell is a cellar hand?

Usually I repeat watch an episode to make sense of it. This week's was so pervasively depressing that I couldn't bring myself to watch it again. Disagree with me if you want but I think Liv Tyler has the deadest eyes since Bruce the shark in Jaws.
