          I thought he quit because he knew the The Emoji Movie was going to be a huge hit?

          On a semi-related note, my wife used to be a big fan of TJ, so we traveled to SLC to watch him do standup a few years ago at a small club. He did a bit about how amazing it must have been when Eli Whitney invented peanut butter and Whitney probably kept it secret, even from his wife, for a while because it was too amazing to share.

          After the show, he greeted people and let us take pictures as we filed out. I took the opportunity to inform TJ that Eli Whitney did not invent peanut butter but he was too high/distracted to understand what I was even saying.

            Sounds like a troll bit. Isn't Eli Whitney inventing the cotton gin kind of a running joke of a trivia question?

              I didn't get that sense from him nor the reactions of anybody else in the crowd.

                • Tonight's episode was very strong, with at least a dozen good one-liners and a couple of great visuals. This one got a definite lol:

                  Spoiler for Jared's funny self-assessment:
                  Jared (watching himself on TV): "Is my nose really that big? I look like an anti-Semitic propaganda cartoon."

                  What Jared does in reaction to what he saw was hilarious and cringe-inducing. Loved it.

                    • It appears as if they used an actress's face on Fiona and either loaded heavy makeup on her or CGI'd it.

                      They could have used the real thing and it would have been even creepier and more unsettling:

                      Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                      • Last night's season finale <sniff> was very strong, a great wrap-up to a fun series. Overall, it was a very good final season--a bit over-the-top weird at times, but never boring. Several amusing shots at Stanford, among other targets.

                          Agree. I’d love to see a Dinesg and Gilfoyle spinoff tho.

                            I thought it was well done and brought the series in for a safe landing - glad they gave Bachman a nod as much as they could - funny to see Lori in her current circumstance without explanation. Glad they made it to the top.
