No, no, I'm not talking about Rosario Dawson. I mean my other, other girlfriend, Scarlett JoHOTsson. My, but she is a fine-looking woman.

He was not able to withstand the combined jixes of being on the cover of Madden 2007, me buying his jersey, and me attending his game on Sunday. Result: broken foot.
It's... it's all my fault.
Julia and I each just received new credit cards in the mail from Bank of America, to replace the old ones. Problem: we never had old ones, even though their convincing letter claims we've been cardholders since 2003.
I called BofA to get an explanation, which was, of course, not forthcoming. In the end they decided that what I had received was probably a fraud -- but I'm not buying it. If it's a fraud, it's the most sophistocated and well-financed fraud of all time. In other words, I think BofA was trying to scam me into activating credit cards that have annual fees by hoping I was too addle-minded to realize I don't already have an account with them. Bastards.
Have they been doing this to anyone else, or is it just us?
Apparently the Onion AV Club has taken it upon themselves to answer pop culture trivia questions that should have been directed to us. And I quote:
"Dear A.V. Club,
I have been searching for the title of this for so long, I'm beginning to believe I invented the whole thing. When I was in elementary school (1985-89), I remember running around at recess pretending to be the characters from a TV show or movie about a bunch of people with extraordinary powers."
Stop right there, annoying younger person. You're clearly talking about Misfists of Science. Duh.
"One guy could shoot lightning out of his hands, and another guy could run really fast, and there was a girl (I think it was a girl) with ESP."
Yes, yes, yes, I already told you...Misfits. Of Science. And the lightning guy was the same as the guy who could run fast. And the girl, Courtney Cox, had telekinetic powers, not ESP. Duh.
"Even with the advent of the Internet, I have been unable to confirm what this show/film was called and who was in it, because I remember so little about it."
That's because you're a jerk who doesn't read our website, jerk.
Here's how confident the AV Club's so-called pop culture experts were:
"...after much discussion in the A.V. Club conference room, we think we have an answer..."
It required discussion? To remember the Misfits of Science?!?!

Brad Pitt joins the ranks of Charlize Theron and me by declaring he won't get married until everyone else can, darnit.
Seriously, people: Brad Pitt. I rest my case.
