Every time I hear Octomom now, I keep thinking “Spider-Man arch-enemy.”

Forgot to add the reason “Bad Romance” came up the other night was because some guy in drag was lip-synching to it.

That’s actually fairly surprising - “Bad Romance” is a little old already.

And people in Africa do too know who Ellen is. Loved her sitcom. Hell, she was Dory, and _Finding Nemo_ is, I think, the most popular Pixar film here with younger kids, going by observation.

Thais know Nemo and maybe Dory, but not Ellen Degeneres. They don’t really pay attention to who’s voicing what. Probably the same elsewhere.

Well, it wasn’t me in drag, I can assure you.
