Certain Women tells each story in full, consecutively, starting with Dern as a lawyer with an ornery client, then moving on to Williams as a businesswoman negotiating for a pile of materials she wants for her new house, and ending with Lily Gladstone as a rancher who becomes smitten with an adult education instructor played by Stewart.

When his fear of a changing America manifests in an ornery disdain for millennials' pathological laziness, unabashed admiration of Walmart's marketing ploys or public displays of affection for Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson and Donald Trump's kids, Schilling's retrograde beliefs are almost quaint: He's the clichéd right-wing uncle I've never known but my white friends all claim to have.

Dorothy's ornery disposition and deadpan humor never gets old; Blanche's sexual escapades are thrilling to witness; Rose's ridiculous stories about her hometown, St. Olaf, are always confounding and hilarious; and Sophia, the oldest of the iconic geriatric crew, delivers sharp-tongued critiques of all of ladies in a way that's always surprising coming from such a tiny person.

Just as I am tired of NFL owners shooting off their big mouths, particularly shooting them off in Texas, like the Houston Texans' sanctimonious owner Bob McNair comparing players' behavior to "inmates running the prison," or the Dallas Cowboys' ornery owner Jerry Jones kneeling with players one week, then threatening to bench them if they do it again the next week.

His friendship with Jean-Jacques Rousseau, which lasted for nearly twenty years—longer than almost anyone else sustained a friendship with the ornery and paranoid Swiss philosophe—began when they met drinking coffee and playing chess in the Café de la Régence, one of the cafés clustered around the Palais Royal, in Paris, where the real reservoir of Enlightenment social capital was produced.

The pair had spent the bulk of the movie apart, with Finn and the fighter pilot Poe (Oscar Isaac) working to protect the rebel group known as the Resistance from the evil First Order; Rey was hounding an exiled and ornery Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) on a remote planet, trying to secure his aid in the fight against the bad guys.

Back inside the convention hall, after yet another speech by yet another made-for-television Trump child, Ted Cruz was doing a mike check, not by reading the Gettysburg Address from the teleprompter, as others did, but by reciting Dr. Seuss: "I do not like green eggs and ham, I do not like them, Sam-I-am"; ode to an ornery man.

What carried the Warriors to the summit last year, and helped them survive LeBron James' sublimely ornery attempt to prove that one person can win a Finals by himself, was a willingness to change; they discovered the Death Lineup that way, while searching for the answer to the fundamental basketball question posed by LeBron's LeBron-ness, and teams still haven't discovered a way to beat that lineup.

Always One person who gets carried away and spirals down one of two staircases of drunkenness: the one where they take their trousers and/or underwear off in a way that literally everyone sees (bad), or the one where they get really weird about the fundamental lack of affection in their life and get really morose and ornery and also horny in a very hard-to-quantify way (extremely bad).

JACK will also perform Carter's String Quartet No. 2 (1959) at Miller (along with works by such luminaries as John Zorn, Anthony Braxton, and Gloria Coates), and most of his essential style elements—the full-spectrum dissonance, the ornery independence of the four instrumental lines, the slow music that moves in surging planes of harmony, like clouds over a landscape—could already be found in Crawford Seeger's piece, in a pithier and more concentrated form.
