Worth mentioning: This portrait was paid for by Republicans, approved by Republicans and has been on display in the Capitol since 2019 — before Polis was governor.

I had DeVry University beating University of Phoenix to win March Madness, so my bracket is already busted.

I may be in bed half-delirious with a fever of 101.5, but thank goodness my fingers still instinctively tap out the bass line to Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus” when it comes on the radio.

So much for the “Jesus loves” bumper sticker and the “Serve & Pray” license plate holder on that SUV where the driver refused to let me merge and gave me a Flavor Flav “I can’t do nothin’ for ya, man” gesture.

Apparently, "John McClane and the Deathly Hallows" is not, in fact, one of the titles of the movies in the "Die Hard" franchise.

If you ever said that it wasn’t time to talk about gun control right after a school shooting, you have no business criticizing the LAFD right now while they’re fighting to save people’s lives and all their belongings.

Media: “Gunman opens fire at a Queens nightclub and kills people, but it’s not an act of terror.” Exqueeze me? If someone starts shooting and killing people en masse at a place where they went to just party and drink and dance, what else are they intending to incite besides terror?!

40+ years later, I've finally realized that Mike's parents in Suicidal Tendencies' song "Institutionalized" think he's on drugs because he asks for a Pepsi and they were clearly a Coke household.

The greatest moment ever in the entire “Office” series is when Dwight simulates the fire and Angela throws her cat into the ceiling. Fight me.

“Die Hard” is a story about a desperate insurgency against a vastly superior invading force, requiring the near-miraculous marshalling of limited resources. Therefore, “Die Hard” is a Chanukah movie.

Time of death: 2:27pm GMT on December 12, when @xsmanchester.bsky.social played the song I viscerally hate -- "Christmas Wrapping" by The Waitresses. And I was doing so well...

I know it’s just a TV show, but I just watched last week’s “Abbott Elementary” and had the same horrified reaction as the teachers did when they found out the kids didn’t know “Christmas in Hollis” or Run-DMC.

The fact that scientists have figured out how to make nuclear weapons but can’t make non-caloric chocolate cake tells you everything you need to know about the world’s preference for keeping people in fear rather than giving them joy.
