They're really cheap at the outlet and they're always running "Buy 1 get 2 free" sales and whatnot.

Robin's house isn't even on a beach really. It's kind of on a jetty that sticks out into a bay and 1 mile in the opposite direction is the Atlantic. Her backyard has boat access too. I'm sure it was probably flooded.

I think I must have misheard this. Did Howard really tell a story about how he had to go to the bathroom during the Kimmel taping, and some woman led him to the mens room. But he refused to go in because there was a person in there, so he made them clear out the womens room for him to use? Surely that's not a real thing that happened?

Agreed -- Howard and Robin have been acting like assholes and I loved Jason saying that Robin has lots of opinions about people with loved ones but "maybe she should find a loved one" before she judges them. drat.

A lot of "taking care of your family" isn't literally about protecting them from flying debris, it's about making them feel safe with your presence and showing them that they are the most important thing in your life. Duh. The married guys probably prefer getting poo poo from Howard rather than having their wives angry and disappointed with them for a looooong time.

All of LBI was washed out - the bay and the ocean met. Her house is at ground level so it was most definitely washed out. They had like 10 feet of water on the island.

The area with Artie's beach house is in a part of Toms River called Green Island - it's a total loss.

My husband grew up in Brick which got hit really badly. We know people whose homes floated away. We're in Lacey (20 miles south) on the water side, but it doesn't flood at all where we are thankfully. We just had a ton of trees down. My husband went down to take care of things today, and he said our house is "that" house - people were driving by taking photos of it. Karma's a bitch - all of the times I've been the gawker!

Artie was never able to sell it? I hope the insurance covers the loss.

Bright side: at least he won't have to pay on that poo poo anymore.

Thanks! The crazy thing is the trees all fell before the storm even hit land in AC (40 miles south).

Down where Robin lives, there are now new lagoons and inlets that the storm created. It actually changed the landscape of LBI.

There's a world of difference between goofing on Gary for collecting cell animation and whatever the gently caress that was all week. It was just such an unreal display of narcissism and public shaming and mental illness that it really moved outside the realm of entertainment and became more or less torture porn.

I couldn't agree more. Howard bullying Booey into the "Can I depend on you?" conversation on Monday was pretty great, but two straight days of Howard relentlessly guilt-tripping everybody who didn't make it in was drat near intolerable. Every segment the past two days has been so repetetive it's just been mind-numbing. Frankly, it kinda reminded me of all that American Idol talk we were all so tired of last year. Ugh.

For the record, I love Richard as much as the rest of you, but I think he was out of line bringing up Robin today and absolutely deserved what he got out of her.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think we've heard before that she went through a twelve hour surgery. I'm not sure what to make of that exactly, I just thought it was an interesting tidbit she let slip while yelling at Richard.

I want to give Robin the benefit of the doubt in regards to her illness and why she can't be in the studio. However, she has no problem waking up on time for the show, and she went to several of the AGT's. Whatever illness she has isn't really keeping her homebound so I don't know what her deal is.

Artie also owns a condo in Hoboken, if I remember correctly. Hoboken was hit badly (though not as badly as the Shore) and half the city is still underwater. Artie may be homeless now.

My family is union (dad is a firefighter who incidentally was on duty for four days straight through this) and normally we do not like Chris Christie, but he's really stepped up and you would be hard pressed to find anyone in NJ who doesn't love the guy right now, us included.

That said...we had a ton of outside damage and some superficial damage to the house but we were lucky. Two of the three trees that fell landed an were leaning where my son's bedroom is. We weren't home, but it was chilling to see the photos.

Sorry to hear about the tree damage, Kelly - but really glad you guys fared better than many on the flood damage.

As a native midwesterner, I've sawn up a few trees that have fallen on my house (and car) in the past, but I've also helped more than one friend clean (gut) a house that had a major tributary of the Mississippi re-routed through it for a week, and I know for drat sure which one is less work and less heartbreak. Trees don't destroy everything you own.

Knowing Robin and her narcissism it was probably a 2 hour outpatient procedure and she was home after 12 hours, but she blows it up into a "12 hour surgery" to call more attention to herself.

It could be the opposite, and no less crazy scenario, where it was something really major and she's going to make a point of stoically bearing through it for the show despite probably being advised to relax and not work. Not unlike like Howard coming to work in a hurricane. Two peas in a crazy pod.

Holy poo poo, is the Geek Time website a piece of poo poo. Hasn't been updated in years, either. Ralph really is a useless rear end in a top hat.

Anyway, now that I'm caught up The Walking Dead, I'd like to hear some of the Geek Time interviews with the cast that I missed. Is there a "Friggin" style rundown of the Geek Time shows anywhere? I'm also guessing that a legit way to download them is out of the question, too.
