Members RockHardNYC Posted July 24, 2018 Members Posted July 24, 2018 OK, not exactly. But it would be fun to see them kiss and have make-up sex. Michael Avenatti has made a new career of eviscerating Michael Cohen on TV. So imagine my shock and awe when Avenatti coyly revealed on ABC's This Week that "there's been an evolution" in their relationship. Apparently, Avenatti recently ran into Michael Cohen on the streets of Manhattan, they talked, and now they're staying in touch. Whoa! That is a serious shift in the lez-be-friends zeitgeist. Watching George Stephanopoulos, Alan Dershowitz, Dan Abrams, and Michael Avenatti go at it on TV, is more fun than a visit to the new Broadway play "Straight White Men." Dershowitz, who never tires of listening to himself talk, and gets a smiling boner at the mere sound of his voice, always delivers good TV. His ego is SO supersized, anyone who dares to appear with him is lucky to get one word into the discussion. I've never seen Abrams so on top of his game. With testosterone levels soaring and forehead lines screaming for more Botox, Abrams almost explodes his hair implants to take on Dershowitz, up to the bitter end of the segment. I love that Abrams got his last word in. And "Alan, please don't interrupt me" Avenatti, with the smoothest forehead in television, calmly and cooly knocks Dershowitz off his Harvard Emeritus anal prod. It was fantastic TV, so if you missed it, here it is: AdamSmith 1 Quote
TotallyOz Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Great video. Loved the conversation. Thanks for sharing. Poor Alan now has no friends he said. Sad. Sad. Sad. Quote

AdamSmith Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 In Cambridge MA where one was resident for 30 years, one got to know everyone's celeb neighbors just through being asked to one anothers' dinner parties, small or large. No one I observed ever asked Alan over. MsGuy 1 Quote

Wearing an intellect a bit too proudly on one's shoulder can be exhausting for many people. Always needing to hear yourself speak and have the last word is another popular turn-off, quite evident among internet trolls. Even so, I do prefer to be in the company of people who are smarter than I. I consider the advantage of learning something new with each visit to be valuable. On the other hand, if one of my long-time guests complained about another guest, I would consider future invite lists. Definitely be more careful about seating. If the reason for the complaint was Trump support, I probably would un-invite the guest. I severely limit the amount of Trump in my house. I have cut-off cousins who insist on pushing all the wrong buttons with endless fervor. Quote

Seeing as how you have a son and natural heir, they may have concluded they have little to gain by staying on your good side; might just as well be their natural ass-hole selves. AdamSmith 1 Quote

Obviously from my behavior here I always veer toward that danger myself. The tonic, as you say, is to remind myself: I am the least knowledgeable person in the house tonight. Ask, listen, learn.
