“This movie doesn’t scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn’t the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn’t below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels….The film is a vomitorium consisting of 93 minutes of Tom Green doing things that a geek in a carnival sideshow would turn down.”
Critics: Roger Ebert on Freddy Got Fingered (2001), Chicago Sun-Times
“Many films are bad. Only a few declare themselves the work of people deficient in taste, judgment, reason, tact, morality, and common sense. Was there no one connected with this project who read the screenplay, considered the story, evaluated the proposed film and vomited?”
Critics: Roger Ebert on Last Rites (1988), Chicago Sun-Times
“Season’s Greetings! I apologise for my slow response but a roast goose prevented me from answering emails for a few days.”

“The writing and data presentation are so bad that I had to leave work and go home early and then spend time to wonder what life is about.”

“AND USING VLA'S IS ACTIVELY STUPID! It generates much more code, and much _slower_ code (and more fragile code), than just using a fixed key size would have done.”

“Finally, it is impossible for the reader to keep track of the hundreds (thousands?) of acronyms in the paper. If there ever is an award for most acronyms in a paper, this one would win it hands down.”

“NAK NAK NAK NAK! QAK! HAK! Crap code! Stop adding undocumented interfaces. Just stop it. Now. Geeze.”

“Walked up to the Angel, looked at it, turned around, got back in the car. Only good thing was the parking was free. (It was a) waste of five minutes.”

“Gastric exorcism at 30,000 feet. Don’t use the bathroom on a Delta flight. That stench is from me, seven years ago.”

“I only make $6.25/hr at Jack In The Box, but I saved up for three months so I could have this cable. It sits in a shrine I constructed next to my futon in Mother's basement.”

“The fact is, any time anybody makes up a new locking mechanism, THEY ALWAYS GET IT WRONG. Don't do it.”

“Another reason why mincing up code files into little-tiny itsy-bitsy "units" to satisfy some vague abstraction fetish learned in CS101 is a bad idea. :-)”

“This cover version of Moussorgsky's mouldy oldie does have a big new beat, but you can't dance to it, and the instrumentation seems a bit spare. Anyway, the truth is that I don't even listen to the original much.”
Critics: Robert Christgau on Emerson, Lake & Palmer – Pictures at an Exhibition (1972), Christgau's Consumer Guide
“I doubt if I could love anyone who did not wish to see Look Back in Anger. It is the best young play of its decade.”

“the production feels less “directed” than crisis managed”

“‘Valentine’s Day’ is being marketed as a Date Movie. I think it’s more of a First-Date Movie. If your date likes it, do not date that person again. And if you like it, there may not be a second date.”
Critics: Roger Ebert on Valentine’s Day (2010), Chicago Sun-Times

“Or maybe he's talking about ye olde readlocke, used widely for OS research throughout the middle ages. You still find that spelling in some really old CS literature.”

“‘Caligula’ is sickening, utterly worthless, shameful trash. If it is not the worst film I have ever seen, that makes it all the more shameful: People with talent allowed themselves to participate in this travesty. Disgusted and unspeakably depressed, I walked out of the film after two hours of its 170-minute length.”
Critics: Roger Ebert on Caligula (1979), Chicago Sun-Times
