About Me
- Gael Fashingbauer Cooper
- I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog, Facebook, and Twitter.

As soon as I saw the strip, I bopped over here to see if you'd commented on it. Warren, Wright, I don't care... so long as it isn't Anthony!
i read it, then immediatly came over here to see what you had to say about it. this could be good! now if only mike's obnoxious kids could be abducted by aliens or something.
Sadly, I fear this is bad news for the anti-Granthony camp. What's up with Warren suddenly being a pervy leering skeeze who says things like "She's still as pretty as ever!"? Between that and the storyline that I think they're setting up with Paul and Liz's replacement up north, I think we're meant to conclude that Granthony is the only nice guy in the universe.
I fear this is just going to be a "look how flaky my current and ex boyfriends are. Granthony is my only hope" storyline. I'll be so happy if I'm wrong, though.
Word. So long as it's not GrAnthony. I've always liked Warren's daredevil quality and would pick him for Liz over the police officer, who seems a bit needy to me.
Have you noticed that Warren has gotten uglier over the years.
Oh MAN. I didn't see this coming either, but I have the Dread Fear that you guys are right and it's a "look, Pornstachio is the Only Decent Man in the Universe." Gaaaah.
But Warren's kind of a sleazeball, from the looks of the way he's drawn...
After that "Where is he when you need him?" strip a while agone, I wrote to the syndicate (because they say the author doesn't care, her staff just brush off any complaints) with a complaint about the stalkerly qualities of both Paul and Pornstachio (seriously, the behavior of both of those guys creeps me out.) Hey, maybe they listened and told Lynn to do sometihng about it!
I think we're being set up here, folks, as much as it sickens me. Granthony shall prevail if, in stereotypic "I'm here a day early, surprise" tradion, Liz discovers that Suds and Chipper are en flagrante ... or she misconstrues them as en flagrante, and Paul can't handle the jealousy.
Remember Chipper? Grrrrr...

Why can't Liz just discover she's gay? Anything other than Granthony!
I don't think the FBOFW universe would be able to handle it if Liz suddenly announced she was gay, but that would be a kick ass way to end the strip.
