Congrats to Robert and Susan.
Congrats on the IronBaby!
One question; the name: is it an anagram?
Congrats!
How do you pronounce that?
I’m assuming Avery Roll?
That sounds kind of delicious to me right now.
I was thinking Avery Ro-elle?
Ah-vrey Roelle? We’ll find out soon enough. Yay for them!
This thread reminds me of ‘Abby Normal’.
Avocadowney?
I checked some Hebrew name sites: Avri is a diminutive of Avraham (Abraham) and Roel seems to just sound nice. My guess, trendy Israeli names. In my experience, some non-biblical Israeli names sound nice but have no meanings attached: years ago, my cousin in Tel Aviv named her son “Shai.” She told us it was trendy.
Sum, Roel isn’t a Hebrew name. Shai has been popular in Israel since I can remember. It means “gift” in Hebrew.
Congrats to the beautiful couple. I like the name.
He promised pics soon.
I might be the only person in the universe who finds RDJ annoying, but congrats to them. Is Avri Roel some made up name or does it have a meaning, because I’ve never heard it before?
Also, Titan Jewell sounds like a dishwasher brand.
I find him annoying too. I read his whole announcement about the name (“After 9 months of intensive development, Team Downey is pleased to announce our 2014 fall/winter project….”) and my eyes about rolled out of my head.
Yeah, it’s like the most annoying facebook posts from my theatre friends…
Is there room on the bench for one more?
Can I sit next to you, because I find him (and the Ironman franchise) highly annoying as well.
Can you make room for one more so that I can sit next to you because I also find the Ironman Franchise extremely annoying.
Of course, Candy Love! But bring more tequila & ativan because we used it all up on the Cumby thread.
I respect him a lot as an actor and overall find him a pretty nice guy, but I dislike that arrogant sarcastic schtick too and I find Iron Man to be a really annoying and boring character, and that’s coming from someone who is loving the Marvel superhero craze.
I think the “Roel” part of the name is a combination of RDJ’s parents’ names.
YES
he definitely has “a case of the cutes” as my grandmother used to say. i think he finds himself delightful.
those 3 names combined sound like a disease
You’re not. Can’t stand him. He’s given some good performances in the past, but since his latest comeback, he’s been a humorless prig.
Sorry, but most of us love him. He lays on the “Tony Stark” schtick a little thickly when he’s out promoting Marvel movies, but in person (I’ve met him several times) he’s very nice, very funny, actually humble and always goes out of his way to greet fans — especially the little kids who love Iron Man. I frankly don’t see how ANYONE can call him a “humorless prig,” LOL, @Neelyo. That’s about as far from actual RDJ as one can imagine.
Alex has been missing for far too long. He was too busy Viking yelling for his football team. http://instagram.com/p/u6UGfyrL59/
They’re a bit tame as far as football fans go.
It was a party with family and kids, they can’t be too hooligany. They are Swedes after all.
I am a horrible person, I hope someone will pray 4 me.
1. “muppet face ass” is freakin hilarious and I know I should NOT say this. I don’t think its use was funny within the given context and person involved, but it’s still kind of funny in a 5 year old sort of way.
2. I was somewhat let down by the article explaining that Van der Sloot’s wife is a pants on fire habitual liar and that no one actually potato shanked him.
*I am picking up the slack for Goodname’s absence in devil’s work today.
So if I call Benedict Cumberbatch a muppet face ass, do you think I will get potato shanked? 🙏
I’m over tired, and generally hate everything that comes out of that mans mouth, but ‘muppet face ass’ genuinely made me giggle. I hate myself a little bit for it, but it’s just so incredibly childish sounding that I can’t help but be amused if I ignore the context/speaker.
What is this whole fascination with Alex from Target? How do these things happen? Just a random pic of a young man working at Target and it becomes a huge hit? Are people THAT bored ? I just don’t get it.
It’s mostly due to tweens on Twitter. It’ll never make sense to anyone over the age of say….21. Don’t try to understand.
Hormonal teenagers.
Personally I agree with that one meme that says they’re more into Jake from State Farm.
#JakefromStateFarmFTW
PS The only time I’ve liked that commercial is in context of this meme.
It may be hormones, but aren’t there a million pics on twitter for people to drool over? What made this one pic so popularl? Like how did it get so out of control? That’s what I don’t understand. Also, is there no law against posting pics of someone else on your twitter account? Maybe this dude didn’t want to become “famous”? Maybe he didn’t want the attention? I don’t know.
I read that it was a marketing firm testing out a viral campaign. They weren’t hired by Target, but they are behind the re-tweeting of it.
The whole Alex from Target thing being a marketing ploy is just…weird. The people behind it are unknown to the family and to Target, etc. All comes down to more internet wtfery.
Yay for Bob and Susan and baby Aveeno!
Yay for vikings walking!
lol baby Aveeno
I thought that was the Fonz and Cake baby?
@Kiddo
Wasabi Soy Sauce flavored Triscuit.
congrats to the downeys and kelly rowland (but the name? whoa, kelly’s baby will have to be a superhero).
I hope miley is dating the Terminators kid just so we can have some feminist approved shade from Taylor swift.
And why does the world go crazy on a day I’m swamped at work????
Cute name! Congrats to them.
Titan Jewell? LOL Titan for a girl. These celebs are crazy. The woman on the morning show was announcing Kelly’s baby and all happy for her and someone on the show said the name, and she laughed thinking they were joking because it wasn’t on her newsreel, and then when she learned they reallyhad named her Titan she was embarrassed because she kind of laughed.
Kelly had a boy
Re: Olivia Munn
The link states that she is still freaking hot. Is this woman hot? I’m sorry but I don’t feel it, not one iota. I may be a woman but a woman usually knows when a woman has some sexual appeal and Olivia Munn has absolutely none in my opinion. I don’t get it. I don’t even get why she is a thing. It’s not like she is even a good actress. What’s up with that? I’d really, really love someone to explain it to me because ever since I saw her in Magic Mike I’ve been trying to solve this puzzle.
I think she’s beautiful, and I really love her in Newsroom.
I loathe her but I also find her super beautiful. As for “sexy” I can’t say.
Her whole schtick is she’s a good looking woman who loves video games and nerdy stuff, and guys buy it. I don’t mind her and think she’s pretty, even though she tries too hard. Like you know this interviews with VS models were all they talk about is how much they love sports and how tomboyish they were growing up? Yeah. That.
I’m kinda digging the baby name the Downeys chose, ngl, but I’m frankly just glad it’s not something like Bricklebutter Princess or something celeb-y.
Mazel Tov!
Colossus Twerkington, what hath you wrought?!
