My last two roommates have complained about me having an annoying habit: walking around our apartment in my socks, not making a sound, and scaring the... let's say "...

Labor Day weekend is notoriously bad for the box office. Not just bad in relation to other holiday weekends, but bad in relation to other weekends, period. Here were...

There's a pop culture entity that can be seen right now that features foulmouthed puppets doing risque things and is an absolute blast for anyone mature enough to...
