Once you understand that you're dealing with murderous liars, you stop entertaining what they say as possibly credible and legitimate. The fight against them is about stopping them from terrorizing and killing by any means, not winning debates about your reality versus theirs.

There was a hilarious early 2000s infomercial for the 'Rivkin Report' stockmarket guide with the late Rene Rivkin being patronising in the most amusing way possible to ironman Trevor Hendy.
Been searching for it for years but for once hasn't popped up on YouTube. Would love to see it again.

Unseen in Oz at the time, here's the final session of Australia's memorable 1992 Test win in Sri Lanka after being almost 300 runs behind on the 1st innings.
Most notable as Shane Warne's first big impact in Tests, taking the final 3 wickets of the match.

Scene set at a McDonalds restaurant from the 1967 Dick Van Dyke/Debbie Reynolds comedy 'Divorce American Style'.
Was this the earliest usage of McDonalds like this in a film? Can't think of an earlier one.

One overlooked aspect of this match: how did the Windies have Roger Harper bowling the final over instead of one of their quality pace attack?

1969 UK TV pilot for a chauvinistic men's interest program called (what else?) 'Mainly for Men'.
So bad it went unaired for over 20 years; with segments like the godawful music number at around 5:55, no surprise it only got shown on a program called 'TV Hell'.

Not a surprise to anyone who saw his abysmal 'How Do You Know', but James L. Brooks 'Ella McCay' is battling with Rob Reiner's Spinal Tap sequel as the year's most unnecessary film by a director who peaked last century.
