The Girl on the Train
I don't think I've ever reported about a breakup story in this column's four year history (and I'd like to avoid it henceforth), but Vanity Fair is reporting that Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are "no longer f***ing."

For a reason I can't quite figure, this strikes me as sad news. My feelings are somewhat akin to the VF line that "their union was the binding force that kept Hollywood from exploding in a mass chain reaction of irony and sexual frivolity." So was there some kind of...you know, subtext to those competitive "I'm F**king..." videos they both made earlier this year? The Vanity Fair story said that reps for Matt Damon and Ben Affleck had no comment on the breakup.

Man, there's gonna be many of a certain type of guy attracted to smarty, potty mouthed brunettes walking a little lighter this week. And yes, that would be me: single, same age and not yet bald.
Seriously, I am curious to see if Kimmell will have the balls to work this into the "I'm fucking _____" mythos joke.

In the long run, it comes down to life commitment. He comes with kids, she's got none, and that will always cause problems, especially for two people who work so much.
What a shame because their relationship was one of the few in Hollywood you actually root for.

It's sad news if you liked your women sluttish and you worship men who resemble overweight accountants and possess a lame sense of humour . If this experience results in these uninspired soulless spirits of their age learning something, it is for the best.
Palmreader, I hope you don't peddle that nonsense for a living.

Pretty poison. If you're smart, you'll run the other way.

I wish I was paid to peddle my opinion. If that gets me six figures, show me the dotted lines. I'll sell my soul willingly.

And yet you can't buy Seth Rogen or Jason Segal bagging the chicks they do in a movie?

Jimmy Kimmel is a test case in how shit always seems to float to the top. Dull and ugly, I have no idea who likes him, or why, and I am pretty sure that anyone who does like him is not someone that I would really want to know. Maybe it's because he's a complete creep, and thus, is a perfect rep. for all the creeps out there; doughy, over-confident frat guy buffoons. And Silverman is a fucking dog. I didn't know that world needed Joan Rivers V.2, because I guess we're getting one anyways. She's another one who comes from the Stiller/Garofolo School of Celebrity, where you act as if nothing makes your skin crawl more than being another LA douchebag celeb, when, in fact, you want it more than Paris Hilton ever did.

Who cares? They are slightly funny, but that's about it. Just another unhappy couple.

I never cared for Silverman. She's not a dog or anything and has sort of a sexy appeal but she comes off as overly elitist and pushy. Also, let's face it, comediennes just are not that funny. Kimmel is ok, though I never found him especially funny either.

JIMMY KIMMEL OWNS YOUR ASS.
MilkMan needs to LEARN HIS FACTS about Kimmel and Silverman, but he IS spot-on about '90s alterna-comics like Stiller and Garofolo (and I'd David Cross) who acted SO hipper-than-thou and have gone on to do more sell-out shit than anyone they ever put down.

Her 'comedy' is so mean spirited and UNFUNNY that I could care less if she disapeared from public view for good.
