Oh give me a break with these articles citing some moron on twitter saying Kelly Clarkson was bad on the Olympic opening ceremony. When she said “that was incredible” I was like “hell yeah it was.” I don’t get the complaints

That French Revolution / reign of terror performance at the olympics is totally sick

Hey, you know where we should have a big outdoor tennis tournament? Rainy England

Damn it’s like people with fireworks in Hollywood aren’t calling it a night if they don’t set off the car alarms, like that’s the goal

I don’t stick up for anyone or anything but common sense here, but “end of quote,” is what you say when you are quoting someone. You say it for emphasis. Twitter really has turned into some of the dumbest people yelling at each other

Is this new, that @abcnews is making "This Week" available to people on Youtube on the same day, without having to enter a cable company you subscribe to? Good, get those pirates out of there and let us cord-cutters watch the real thing

The Big Mac is possibly the best fast-food burger, so charge me the extra $1 and I’ll pay it dude

“People should stop being mad about the cost of a Big Mac, and start being mad about the cost of that appendectomy and this month’s day-care bill,” @AnnieLowrey writes. Big-ticket costs are having the most deleterious impact on family finances. https://t.co/kwDLeanLDm

I've seen my fair share of violence on screen, but the old torch to the face in Ben-Hur is among my all time favorites

“Well, that’s the end of this suit!” may be in the Top 10 of funniest lines in movie history

I think this was more common overseas in the past, but I am tickled pink to see more big rig drivers flashing the "thank you" hazard lights when people let them in. It's just so much nicer than road rage

I love all the people, like in Dayton, Ohio, saying “I never thought I’d see an aurora but it’s awesome”

On a more positive note, the queen of Jordan’s interview is very good

If you get a chance to watch @MeetThePress today, there is a fascinating interview with Ruby Bridges, the little girl who attended the whites-only school in Louisiana in 1960. It'll make your day
