ESPN Reporter Drops Animal House Reference to No Takers
Jeff Darlington tweeted about the Miami KC game at halftime, writing, “A mere history lesson here in Germany should provide the Dolphins all the hope they need in the second half. After all… Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor??” This was of course a reference to John Belushi’s Bluto character, but nobody got the ref, instead piling on him for believing Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.
You might want to update your pop culture references.

Maybe she didn’t listen when he told her to walk this way.
Teri Copley Says Stamos Full of Shit
Not only did she say she wasn’t cheating on Stamos (they had broken up according to her) he also didn’t catch her in bed with Tony Danza. Instead he arrived to find Danza’s car in the driveway. He knocked on the door which Copley says she answered fully dressed. “[He] just shook his head and looked at me like, ‘How could you?’” she claimed. “Well, I looked at him and didn’t say anything either. I just looked at him like, ‘What do you care?’”
After seeing Stamos talk this week, we’re agreeing with Copley.
Alexander Payne Compares Giamatti to Streep and Olivier
While talking about his new buzzworthy film The Holdovers, Alexander Payne said Giamatti is the greatest actor. “There’s nothing that he can’t do. If the part is generally right for him, give it to Paul Giamatti,” he said. “It’s like giving a part to Meryl Streep or Laurence Olivier. You’re just curious what this great actor is going to do with the part. He’s that good.”
I didn’t see Laurence Olivier in Billions.
Nic Cage Did Not Plan to Be a Meme
“I got into acting because I was moved by film performance more than any other art form. I didn’t get into movies to become a meme. That was new. I made friends with it but it was an adjustment,” he said. “I thought maybe they would compel someone to go back and look at the movies. But I had no control over it. The same thing happens with Paul in Dream Scenario: he has no control over this inexplicable phenomenon.”
Loks like you got picked on by the meme girls.
