    I have no real interest in his other flicks, maybe Misery, but that's it. He'll always be Meathead to me.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    The most accurate description of When Harry Met Sally... is "not bad." That's a 5.0 to me.
