The Temperance Brennan of gymnastics

"Cut to the party, which takes place outdoors in front of what I assume to be the host’s house. Kaylie’s all impressed by Emily’s hooker wear, which makes Emily more self-conscious. She quickly covers up with her sweater. Payson’s sporting an old Rock sweatshirt, which is mildly amusing but I’m kind of over the whole Payson=SuperGymnast angle. She’s the Temperance Brennan of gymnastics, I get it. Except not even Brennan is that obsessed."

The George Lucas of drug companies

"Shire is the George Lucas of drug companies, degrading classic amphetamine formulations and making the originals unavailable. Don't settle for 'newer and better.' The originals have worked great for over 70 years."

The Ozzie Guillen of higher ed

"It is unfuckingbelievable that this Yudof dude could say shit like that. He sounds like the Ozzie Guillen of higher ed. It is clearly the words of someone who just doesn't give a flying fuck anymore. Maybe he's already been told that he is going to be shitcanned?"

The Wilt Chamberlain of Bigfootery

"Tom Biscardi the Wilt Chamberlain of Bigfootery. Biscardi lives in between the California Bay Area and Las Vegas, or, as a source says, 'wherever he can find a loose woman.' Biscardi thinks he is God’s gift to women, and he is one of the wildest, most out of control and notorious womanizers in the Bigfoot world. One source compared him to Wilt Chamberlain. 'Biscardi has a woman in every port,' the source said."
