Things I learned at San Diego Comic-Con 2010
Another great year, another Con post. Here is what I learned this year:1. Val Kilmer's career is heading in the wrong direction. It's never good to be the saddest looking flyer on the table.2. I have mad love for anyone who grabs 4 of their buddies and spends the day wandering the floor like this:3. Cat Woman will flirt with anyone. Sorry Seth.4. I am surprisingly more tolerant of someone

We know if we gather in large, unwashed quantities you will let us in just to make us go away.3. We do not take well to change and will protest your overuse of y's with cleverly worded t-shirts.
I'm not as stupid as CNBC thinks I am.
This is Jon Stewart doing what he does best... taking media to task for not holding themselves to a higher standard. These three clips are the full Stewart/Jim Cramer interview, not the cut down interview that made it to air. Please trust me when I say it is worth watching the entire thing. If you can watch as far as into Part 2, I guarantee you will not be able to stop.I'm not sure if I love
