RIP Andy Hallett

Lorne, the empathic demon who could read people’s futures when they sang, was/is one of my favorite characters from the Buffyverse. I cannot believe Andy Hallett has passed, and at the frighteningly young age of 33, after suffering heart disease for the past five years. How very sad.

Everyone’s an athlete?

Whoever came up with this G2 commercial is a complete asshat—a famous and wealthy basketball player saying he’s never been laid off or unable to pay his mortgage? And that’s supposed to connect him to this “average” swimmer? How terribly inappropriate. Also, note the rookie grammar error at the end? LESS calories? Really, Gatorade? Really?
