What do you think of Comic Sans?
In high school my buddies and I built a Van Der Graaf generator.  You know, to get girls.

Tacky as fuck in any non-whimsical usage but no more tacky than the uppity clods whom lose their shit about other people using it.

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Dude's fuckin hilarious. His and David Letterman's banter during their many 90s interviews was fucking awesome.

I must agree.  It sometimes seemed like Dave only had him on because a lot of people considered Simmons a joke, a ridiculous guy pretty much good for being laughed at and not much else, but Simmons would have none of it and just did his thing (in other words, he was just himself) and Dave often seemed frustrated and embarrassed and didn't know what to do.  And it was all much more entertaining than it should have been.

I think as time wore on, the two became fond of each other and the whole thing was an orchestrated façade.

Dave was so sarcastic, so obnoxious sometimes, that it was hard to tell if he ever really liked anyone or anything.  You could never tell how serious he really was about anything.  But I suspect you're right.

How'd you get that fancy "Moderator Emeritus" status and how come I don't have one?!?

edit:  (uhh... lol, I was replying to the "Ask splent" version of this... apparently I missed the boat though).

Either bosk or Rich gave it to me when I had to step back after my daughter was born.
I don’t know what to put here anymore
