How about Stag? A Missouri beer, I believe.

When faced with the decision at the Edward Jones Dome (Club section at the Bears game last week) of a 24-oz. draft of Bud for $9.25 vs. a double Crown Royal for $7.25, the choice was easy. Plus a lot less pissing.

That's a really easy decision. The Crown is a nice drink.

I still get by with Jack and Coke. A classic.

I prefer a 7 and 7.  You're never too drunk to order one.

Blue Moon sucks the schmag out of a dead elephant's rotting vagina.

It (and any other wheat beer you can name) tastes like they poured shampoo in it.

And it's for teh gheys. 

I hear Peanut Tillman LOVES Blue Moon.

Your move.

Brian Urlacher wears Old Spice. Doesn't mean I have to.

He needs to try wearing a condom with that.

Today is my department's Christmas Party.  We are having a casino night.  As soon as we walk into the place, I will be shouting: "WELCOME TO MONTE CARLO!".

Forgot the glow sticks though.

Prison Mike was the balls.

And he never even got caught.

Dwight walking around in front of Martin with the money hanging out of his back pocket.

Sorry to see Martin go already, though.  Guess they're thinning the Stamford herd.

I hate weddings on TV.  They always suck.  Unless you don't see them and the whole episode takes place in the kitchen.

Call me a hopeless romantic, but I think you're gonna make some fat chick a really great husband.

She'll know who I've been hanging out with when she sees all those sores on my mouth. And I'll say something like, "Damn it Florida (most fat girls are named after states), that's not pie! That's a sore!" Then she'll eat it anyway. Cuz she's fat.

They just like to lick 'em cuz the sores are kinda salty. 

All right, break it up you two.

My brother met him Vegas. Nice guy from all accounts.

So, they fast forwarded a year to where Lily and Marshal are married and Ted and Robin are still together...does this mean they're going to continue on from there? I hope so. Because at some point this bastard has to meet the mother.

They sure as hell painted themselves into a corner with this stupid concept, didn't they?  I watch the show occasionally, but I always wondered what happens when he finally meets the mother?  The shows over, right?  And now Ted's with Robin and the show is still on, so she can't be the mother right?  Or are they going to break up and get back together 100 times like they did on friends and then the series finale will flash back to the first time they met?  Or are they going to have to try and introduce a new character into cast that seems to have pretty good chemistry?  I blame Bob Seger and his voice over for this.

I'm just going to bold that and let your light bulb go off on it's own.

That's there on purpose, and I'm just going to wait for a Simpsons fan to pick me up.

Well that backfired. Hey, look at me, I'm a tough guy.

Usually I can pick you up on the Simpsons references, but I'm failing you miserably on this one.

Lisa: So long Chief, enjoy Bob Saget!

Chief Wiggum: It's Bob Seger! (looks at tickets) Aw crap.

By the way, I really dig Studio 60.  I don't care if the show within the show is funny.  It doesn't have to be.  The actually show IS funny, the stories are good, the acting is good, and that's enough for me.

Sorkin may never again write something as amazing as the West Wing, but Studio 60 is a fine show.  'nuff said.

Oh, I love it too.  I can't decide which I like better, the condescension towards anyone who is stupid enough to not live in New York or California, or Sorkin's creepy obsession with making everything on the show about his ex, Kristin Chenoweth.

blah blah blah

If you weren't walking while you said that, it doesn't count in this thread.

I suspended disbelief for a while, but it was too hard last night during the bit about the Corddry's character's parents.  These guys are in their mid-50s, tops, and they still have a turntable that goes to 78?  They stopped making 78s in the early 50's, righto?  And I don't care how removed they are from Hollywood, everyone and their great-grandfather has heard of "Who's On First?"  I mean, half of the dialogue from "Rain Man" is cribbed from that bit.  Needless to say, Sorkin's a bit removed ... from a lot of things.  Besides that and the sketches, I still like the show.

(btw, one of the funniest sketches in TV history has to be the Kids in the Hall take on "Who's On First." 

Dave Foley: "no, I'm a vaudevillian.")

EDIT: here it is:

I think they made the 78 turntable later than that KD.  My cousin's 35 years old, and I inherited one from him as a kid.  Of course, I had no idea what that 78 speed was for.  I mainly used it as the "kill" setting on Darth Vader's centrifuge of death.

Tracy Morgan has been at his best (other than Spoony Luv) in 30 Rock, and Baldwin has been good too. The chicks, not so much.

Sorkin needs to get a real-life comedy writer to write the comedy bits. They suck. Maybe Nate Corddry can get his bro in there to help out?

He's got Mark McKinney from Kids in the Hall and SNL on staff already, although how much input he actually has is another matter.  It's not just the comedy that's the problem though, the whole thing just strikes me as too dramatic.  I mean, Sorkin seems to be unable to draw the line between The West Wing and Studio 60.  A head writer with a cocaine problem?  A network exec with an old DUI?  These are things that might be problematic for a politician, but in the entertainment industry?  I doubt it.

Better set your alarm for 13 seconds earlier next time.

I did, too. 

I, uh, think we're the only ones.

That could be because you're the only ones watching it.  There's a good chance that both Studio 60 and 30 Rock will be canceled soon as 60 is hemorrhaging viewers and 30 doesn't have them to begin with.  Who would have thought that shows about the behind the scenes happenings of a show that's not funny wouldn't be funny?  Not me.

But 30 Rock IS funny.

If you say so, Slak.  I only saw the first episode, and while Baldwin was good, I think the major stumbling point is Tina Fey as the main character, because she can't act at all.
