We all know the "Viggo broke his toe" story but what's another movie fact you're personally compelled to bring up every time without prompting? For me, it's the fact that Robin Tunney is wearing a wig in The Craft because of having just shaved her head to save her job filming Empire Records.

When I saw the Shane Gillis gym routine on SNL I thought ‘that’s a bit creepy and not much of a joke’, but luckily some male comedians have explained it to me and now I can’t stop laughing about it. ‘Whores’ lol

The whole point of humans as a sociable, tribal species is we should eject people like this, so they starve in the wilderness alone. There are consequences to sociopathic behaviour. Somehow the abstract idea of money has short circuited our basic evolutionary safeguards.
