Is you is or is you ain't my baby: Discussion Time for War Games

... only mutual recognition of another Time Lord via psychicstuffs. 3] He really isn't ever called the Master, so there's nothing positively salient there to identify him. 4] He has a kind of humorlessness that seems very unlike the suave wit of Delgado!Master or the chucking 'things are fucking hilarious' of Ainley!Master.

I blame Ms. Poppin' Lip Gloss

... to you??"  Uh, yeah.  That's why I want their picture.  *Theirs.*  Not yours.  Humorless clod. This is Humorless Guy (this is the only pic I took that night without permission.  I had to show you the humorlessness of Humorless Guy): But the Fun Guys made up for the one with no humor.  The guy not in the foam hat shouted to me, "I'd better not see this on Facebook!"  Well, I'll honor that and ...

MTV Is the Battleground of the Culture War

...they were paying Sarah Silverman to do on last year’s show, where she took pot shots at Britney Spears (and did not apologize, I might add). Sparks’ reaction reeked of Sean Penn-at-the-Oscars humorlessness. And while I do not take issue with the Jonas Brothers wearing purity rings (or the concept of abstinence until marriage), I do take issue with the use of the word “slut,” especially when it is ...

so what I am a rock star

You know, I cannot even put into words why Jordin Sparks and the general humorlessness of the VMAs bothered me so much. Somebody help me out. I mean, it made Katy Perry's banana-peeling seem positively witty and un-self-conscious in comparison.

Turn the volume down

...all that funny, but because his nonstop stream-of-consciousness play-by-play delivery was, and because he seemed to be taking the piss a bit. Jordin Sparks, meanwhile, took a brave stand for abstinence and humorlessness. --Tokio Hotel? Zer? Are they French or something? If so, why do they sound like awful Fall Out Boy-style imitation of glam rock? Again, I refuse to look this up. I know there's a...

...                Uneasy, she recoils, letting them perfunctorily drop to the floor, coiled around her feet, staring him directly in the eyes, apprehensively naked and self-conscious of her body due to his humorlessness. He circles around her again, searching to find some kind of weapon to prove he’s not a lunatic. Scrutinizing her head to toe, even between her toes, sniffing for poison. ...

... If Obama keeps being stingy with his quips and smiles, and if the dominant perception of him is that you can’t make jokes about him, it might infect his campaign with an airless quality.

Weekend highlights

... citizenship, but I'm really excited to add British, EU citizenship to the mix. We went out to see Mamma Mia! yesterday afternoon, and I absolutely loved it. I am amazed by the humorlessness of the critics who slammed it in their reviews...one review from a British paper really summed up the critical attitude in this phrase: "unredeemed silliness"! For heaven's sake...why should anyone need to...
