As opposed to being literal.

In the Philippines, to be "pilosopo" is slang for being a smart-ass.

Pilosopo! The villain ending in an "o" that the other JLA villains Despero, Starro and Amazo couldn't stand!

"I'm goin' down to Reno
Checkin' out the scene-o
Feelin' so mean-o
Wish I would
Crash and burn"

I wish she would have written-o a second draft o' the lyrics.

Sometimes it does take multiple drafts to get "it" right

Towards the end of the Faith No More song "Epic," they do a call-and-response thing where the band chants, "It is it," and the lead singer asks them, "What is it?"

I found the movie “What About Bob?” To be very predictable but still very funny.

I was disappointed that Bob Newhart's 90s sitcom Bob wasn't more successful.

Was that the one where Bob Newhart played a comic book artist?

Yeah. He was hired to revive his classic character by a modern comic company who had purchased the rights. One of the points of humor is that the company kept pressuring him to update his 1950s character to 90s sensibilities.

It had a lot of potential, but never quite gelled.

I remember "Bob" was on CBS and they were trying to build a sitcom block around it, but I don't remember much about the show itself, or anything at all about the other shows in the block.

The promos for the sitcom block had cute animation, though -- the CBS logo would morph into a laughing face.

The promos were also soundtracked by a re-recording of Buster Poindexter's "Hot Hot Hot," with different lyrics, as "Ha Ha Ha."

How in the universe I would remember *those particular things* so vividly is beyond me!

You have a trivial mind like me.

Ha ha. Thanks, Quis.

One of the birds in Snoopy's "Beagle Scout" troop had an amazing knowledge of movie trivia. He knew who played the Sergeant in every adaptation of Beau Geste.

Mayor La Trivia was a character on Fibber McGee and Molly.

Storing general knowledge is a trivial pursuit.

In a 2019 context, does that mean billions of people around the world are all engaged in trivial pursuits?

Isn't all life trivial anyway?

He asked, while playing a trivia game about celebrities.

Hasbro must be making a fortune out of all those games.

People are willing to pay a lot for their toys.

There's a Dead or Alive deep cut from their "Youthquake" album called, "I Wanna Be a Toy."

Wonder if Pete Burns was addressing his local plastic surgeons?

*rimshot*

Just kidding. Gods, I'm so mean sometimes.

Pete was fallible like us all. And he had one hell of a singing voice.

And even by the end of his life, his face didn't really look any worse than those of most other middle-aged celebrities.

She said while still pondering a rhinoplasty for herself.

“Four score and seven years ago...” is the start of the Gettysburg Address. I don’t think that there were any plastic surgeons in the audience.

In those days, men just grew a beard when they wanted to alter their appearance.

"To beard the lion in his own lair" is one of my favorite expressions.

If the beard also comes with a comedy nose and wacky eyebrows, then people messing with the lions deserve everything they get.

Rock Hudson had a beard. Her name was Phyllis Gates

Did she have a comedy nose and wacky eyebrows? Did Rock Hudson? Did the lion, making the attempt to fit them redundant?
