OMG. I am about to agree with you. I love Florence and the Machine. I listen to her album at work all the time. She has a quirky voice and interesting songs. She's not quite top 40 which is what I guess I like about her.

Ex-Mr 33 would be so happy to see all the Forrest Gump hate. He detests that movie.

The British Office is WAAAAAAY better than the American one. David Brent is SUPPOSED to make you squirm. Plus Tim & Dawn are a lot cuter than Jim & Pam.

Everyone dissing FOTM & Chelsea Handler better sleep with one eye open tonight.

"Allow others to"? You don't have to speak ill of him if you don't want to, but I just did, and I still think Harry Potter is dumb.

The thing is she has unbelievable talent. I've seen Youtube vids of her singing before she got famous and her voice is incredible. But she traded it all in for gimmicky costumes and junky techno beats. I much preferred her back when she was just regular old Stephanie.

I love doing the voices but Jim Dale is the master. The audiobooks are seriously entertaining on road trips. For the last, he had to create 146 voices. I believe that's the Guiness World Record for most voices in an audiobook.

I've also REALLY heard her sing, and she actually is very good. But like you said, it's a shame that she's now where she's at. I'll admit.. I rock out to Kesha and Katy Perry while I'm driving, but I CAN NOT get on board with Lady Gaga. Her songs are terrible.

Those of you who hate The Office can at least appreciate that some of the humor is fitting for an actual office environment.

I'm watching the TBS "marathon" and am reminded of the hilarious Diversity Training episode. LOL.

That is my favorite episode of The Office.

My wife was never an Office fan -- like many others, she found some of the characters just too obnoxious and annoying. "Yes," I would say, "and I've worked with every single person at Dunder Mifflin." Sad, but true. That's why I love to laugh at them.

That said, I think The Office in its British and American incarnations is a prime example of how Americans tend to keep shows around too long, while the British tend to leave you wanting more.

That's why I also like The Office. I've worked with a Pam, Jim, Stanely, Creed, Angela, and a Kevin

AVATAR


It was interesting, visually stimulating, and very overrated.

You left out the totally derivative, unoriginal and predictable plot. Very overrated.
