Dobbler is a fine name for a girl

it actually kind works, yeah. She a great cat, ask anyone who's met her, she's a sweetie. I guess I'm just mad because she's my cat now, and stuck with a name I did not pick.

I wanted name her "Quizno"
so wtf do I know

It reminds me girls named Greer or MacKenzie or some other random (usually) surname. Plus it's a cat so who gives a shit. Surely not the cat.

i'm just going to presume that kenan was planning on naming the kitten princess sparklepants, since he's so hung up on how "dobbler" is not a "girl name"
― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Friday, 15 June 2007 15:54 (sixteen years ago) link
or he was just going to call it vagina
It's Dobler w/ one B, and you could pretend it's named after Conrad.
Shakey, the GPB hitman thing is a metaphor for a morally indefensible job, like the ones most of us have.

As many times as I explained that this is a girl kitten, they insisted that no, these little tufts of hair clearly indicate a boy.
There's a million-dollar movie pitch in this.

Seconded or thirded or whatever on the love for the inexplicably not-included The Sure Thing. I somehow appear to never have seen Say Anything, which seems wrong given my deep love for both teen films and John Cusack. He even made Serendipity nearly not horrible, FFS.

actually, his puppeteer character is the most ILX one.

It's a shame True Colors wasn't in this poll. Spader AND Cusack doing some intense politico screen-sharing (and Spader's actually the good guy).

Also forgot the name is DOBB-ler bot DOH-bler.

How many times a pivotal scene in a John Cusack film involve him sitting or standing in the rain at night? I can only think of Say Anything and High Fidelity, but it seems like it happens more often than that.

One of the most iconic ‘80s movie moments by one of the most iconic ’80s movie stars is in 1989’s Say Anything. John Cusack’s Lloyd Dobler, in a last-ditch attempt at wooing the girl of his dreams, hoists a boombox over his head blasting Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes.” Even people who haven’t seen the movie likely know the scene.In a surprise appearance over the weekend, Cusack made a cameo at the Hollywood Bowl for Peter Gabriel’s concert commemorating the 25th anniversary of his breakout album, So. During the portion of the concert where Gabriel revisited the seminal classic, Cusack handed the boombox to Gabriel who launched into song as he held it over his own head. Say Anything director Cameron Crowe was also in attendance and received a shout-out later in the show.

his performance in love and mercy is amazing. for someone who looks and sounds nothing like brian wilson, he somehow became brian wilson.

haha yes I thought that too, and he didn't even seem to be trying too hard it was just this odd situation where his personal tics matched up with Brian Wilson's with a minimum of tweaking.
idgaf about the rest of the movie tbh
