And Kanzen....Futurama?? It wasn't funny the first time, its not funny the second time around. Community is meh at best, and I have no idea what IT Crowd is.

Futurama is Lord of the Rings and BBT is Twilight written for five year olds. Futurama has had one off season where, but at least there are jokes and not just error filled references. Community relies mostly on subtle humor with interactions, there is no laugh track telling you when to laugh.

Laugh tracks keep things simple, no thinking involved, I like that.

Plus, well, Penny

The last Community I saw had them as low bit video game characters, and it may have been the stupidest 30 minutes of television I've ever seen. It could have used a laugh track to silence the crickets.

No. It is not. It is nothing more than the equivalent of black-face to actual nerds. It is the lowest common denominator garbage that makes you think it's funny by telling you when to laugh at non-jokes. Nothing more than Pavlovian responses. The only reason it is popular is because people like to feel like they are part of an exiled group and niche. It is also filled with tons of errors and tries to seem smart when in fact it is the exact opposite. The show is nothing short of unwatchable garbage, with great PR spin. It is the Beats by Dre of TV sitcoms.

Absolutely nothing funny about that clip. They are just making fun of someone with Aspergers. If someone actually came to your door and did that, you would be annoyed.

Not even the dead shall be spared from my rustling.

The laugh tracks removed, now, exactly where are the jokes?

"You can't pay me sooner than you can" is the only thing that I found kind of funny.
(Never seen this show before by the way)

I'll agree it isn't the funniest tv show ever made, but it has its moments, and its better than most. I just think its cute, and its not so much about the jokes themselves, its more about the situations they're in that's funny. Like Sheldon's long standing grudge with Wil Wheaton, or his lack of social skills.

Thanks SP, that's all the reason I need to watch that show

And I still find it funny too.

Sooooo...its 3:15am. Anyone up for a rousing game of twister?

To early for twister, I'd fall over and hurt someone cuz my balance isn't so good till I get a cup of coffee down

Ugh, a couple of my neighbors and pulling that "Oh I'll just bend up the wiper arm to keep the blade off the glass so I don't have to worry about ice."

As someone who has worked tons of cars, DO NOT DO THAT.

1. You are bending the tensioner spring on the underside of the arm, that means you are damaging the spring and weakening it, which in turn means less pressure can be applied to the windshield lowering effectiveness. That means when a heavy snow/rainstorm shows up, you will be shit out of luck because your wipers aren't making proper contact with the windshield. You will end up having to buy a new wiper arm.

2. If the wind catches the wiper or arm, it can cause the spring to retract and snap the wiper into the windshield which WILL CRACK YOUR WINDSHIELD. It may not look like it, but micro-fissures occur every single time, and not shortly after when they meet up, you end up with a cracked windshield.

Instead, buy a set of winter blades or unibody (flex) blades, and take the fucking time to clean your vehicle off properly.

This...

I've plowed snow for 28 years, none of which I have been able to park my truck in the garage, which means I get up 15 minutes early to clean my truck off and make sure I can see clearly out of all windows.

It's not that hard to do, it simply means most people would rather be lazy than safe

Yeah...snow

When I lived in Orlando, my windshield frosted over one morning. It took me a little while to figure out what the windshield defroster actually does.

The defroster is to dry your sandals when they get wet...

Or to try to blast a bug off you windshield when they get inside.

I've found I always end up squishing said bugs and leaving smudges all over the inside of my windshield, very annoying

Sometimes we're in a rush and have to get somewhere, and you can't spend time making sure you can "see" through all of your windows. I put "see" in quotes because you can still see, it's just like a fun game of driving through a Church's stained glass window or something.
