““I die in Iron Man,” says Sayed Badreya, an Egyptian man with a salt-and-pepper beard. “I die in Executive Decision. I get shot at by—what’s his name?—Kurt Russell. I get shot by everyone. George Clooney kills me in Three Kings. Arnold blows me up in True Lies…” As Sayed and Waleed and the others describe their various demises, it strikes me that the key to making a living in Hollywood if you’re Muslim is to be good at dying. If you’re a Middle Eastern actor and you can die with charisma, there is no shortage of work for you. […] “Were you doing all that boozing because you felt guilty for playing terrorists?” I ask [Ahmed]. “There was an element of that,” he replies. “There was an element of not working between those parts. And then I had an epiphany. I called my agent: ‘Hey! Don’t send me out on these terrorist parts anymore. I’ll be open for anything else, but not the terrorist stuff.’ ” Ahmed pauses. “After that, she never called.” “How often did she call before then?” I ask him. “Oh, three or four times a week.””

Pancake the steamrollered teddy bear, found at the op shop last Christmas. Though he’s pretty two-dimensional, he has a unique personality and is perfectly travel sized to squish in a suitcase — or to slip down the side of the bed.

Hey, it could happen to… well, “anybody” is probably too broad of a category when talking about murdering someone with a shovel.

I don’t know what else I can do because if I do something right, it’s unacknowledged. She doesn’t even say thank you. But if I do something wrong, she is vicious.
