During a post-Comic Con interview with MTV News, actor Peter Sarsgaard shares an experience he had while preparing for Martin Campbell's Green Lantern movie which instilled great fear in him:

"I actually did hang with this biologist from Tulane that was I think just the most eccentric guy they could find. He was entertaining. And he and I actually worked on my lecture that I give in ['Green Lantern'], which I kept royally f---ing up because — what was it I had said — 'prokaryotic cells.'"

"I still can't remember how to say that,"
he explained. "Every time I'd get to it I'd just go, 'pro, pro pro,' and then an extra said to me, 'You know how you remember it? You're for Kary winning. You're pro-karyotic.'"

As for the craziness of Sarsgaard's character, Hector Hammond, he promises a multi-layered villain"

"He's got shades of gray. It's eccentricity on top of eccentricity."

Best. Posts. EVER!!!!

I love how you guys keep coming up with this stuff. It beats the "Cap'n Cuccumber" pic.

I still remember the "Beggin' Strips" commercial from a few years ago. And then there is a radio commercial on now that says bacon is "Meat Candy".

It was also recently reported on ABC News that Wendy's triple Baconator was one of the most caloric sandwiches ever.

Now that Ryan is so popular, will there be a six degrees game for him? Is there six degrees btwn him and Kevin?
