Does Stiffler call Finch “shitbreak” or “shitbrick”? I’ve always corrected people who said “shitbrick”…

It’s my understanding that “shitbrick” appears in the subtitles on the DVD… but doesn’t make an ounce of sense. As you can tell, I’m firmly in the (minority) shitbreak camp.

edit: Clearly shitbreak in American Wedding when Finch and Stiffler are putting their tuxedos on!

Russia remained on the Julian calendar until after the Russian Revolution (which is thus called the ‘October Revolution’ but occurred in November according to the Gregorian calendar).

Peeping tanning salon owner goes to trial

Note: He’s being prosecuted by ADA Boob.
Note 2:

The charges against Hanslovan were filed seven weeks after a customer reported to employees that she thought Hanslovan had spied on her while she was tanning.

Police who searched Hanslovan’s office found a hinged board that, when lifted, revealed a large hole, 18 inches by 24 inches, with the first layer of drywall and all of the insulation removed, according to court documents.

edit:

(16:44:45) Shawn Pecze: peephole?!?!?!
(16:44:51) Shawn Pecze: that was bigger than my old TV
