Go.

Posted by: McGehee at September 10, 2008 01:01 PMAlan Rickman is so ugly, most people just refer to him as Sarah Jessica Parker's future self.
If Hollywood was a car dealership, he'd be the Delorean DMC-12.
The phrase 'Margaret Thatcher on a cold day' is actually man-code for 'Alan Rickman, fully clothed'.
