HomerJSimpson	March 6, 2010	I wish the technology in "Avatar" was real. That way, I could make a ten-foot blue version of myself sit through that stupid movie. #oscars
ComicBookGuy	July 26, 2014	The laundry bleached my "Dr. Manhattan" thong white, so now I'm forced to go to the Masquerade as "Na'vi Baby Huey". #SDCC #FOXSDCC
