Yeah. Does she think we believe she is an apple farmer? I feel like Diamond would have told us about that.

my wife has had - and continues to have - an irrational hardcore hatred of Jennifer Garner. She claims it's rational but can't give me any reason other than "I just don't like her."

She may have even at one point said "I don't trust her" so Johnnie maybe you guys are onto something...

I like the cut of your wife’s jib. Punchable faces thread material if you ask me.

Thanks for the reminder, I knew there was something I wanted to watch on AppleTV. First season was a unique ride. It was great at times, but such an interesting concept (each episode told from the POV of a different character) and filmed like different movie styles to fit their story telling. Murder mystery, but light and funny with a ton of twists. And in the end, I don't remember who did it, so I could probably watch it again and still be surprised.

Is it the one where she's wearing the pink housecoat that even my grandma, dead 23 years, would have said was "too old fashioned"?

RE: Aldi commerical.

1. The woman working the checkout is just straight up fire.
2. The guy's reaction to the other guy pulling out bananas is so stupid, yet I crack up every time.

I hope this is not a controversial post. I will take no questions at this time.

And they now call their company “Gillette Labs”, as if they’re working on nuclear fission or something.

Father-and-son TikTok stars Frank and Joe Mele.

I can’t tell if you’re joking or not.


But she’s an heir of the Hilton empire.

And she’s an utter piece of shit. That’s what I meant. Like there are a number of people, myself included, who wouldn’t go to Hilton property specifically because of her.

She’s a vacuous bimbo, of course. But I hadn’t heard negatives beyond that. What am I missing?

Kim K used to hold her purse. So she's partially the reason that family is famous. (The other parts are Kris's marketing skills after selling the sex tape to Vivid and Ryan Seacrest for platforming them on A&E.)

But ever since she dropped from public life she's made a boatload of money as a DJ and confirmed her ditzy persona and voice she used was fake.
