    The world according to Liz Lemon: How 30 Rock taught me everything I need to know about life

    Mikela Floyd Kinnison
    Feb 3, 2013 | 6:00 am

    Good God, Lemon, it’s over. Wrap yourselves in a slanket and slice up some night cheese, 30 Rock fans, because NBC’s cult favorite wrapped its seven-season run Thursday night, taking with it my hopes, dreams and a whole lot of "blergh."

    Premiering in 2006, this show about a show took quirk to a new level. It plucked Alec Baldwin from his movie star status and cemented him into comedy TV greatness. It pulled Tina Fey out from behind the "Weekend Update" desk and into the show-creator’s chair.

    It provided for a slew of secondary characters that have emerged as some of the most quotable in TV history. It introduced us to the best mentor/mentee dichotomy that ever was: that of Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy.

    Last but not least, 30 Rock pretty much provided us with the roadmap by which to live our lives. I promise.

    And last but not least, it pretty much provided us with the roadmap by which to live our lives. I promise.

    Liz Lemon is one of the first television characters I’ve truly identified with. Sure, I don’t run a writer’s room, nor do I possess the desire to constantly wear socks with sandals. But I say the wrong thing, talk without thinking, I and definitely have a fondness for low-budget snack food. She’s at the top, and she’s not quite able to handle it (“SOMEBODY BRING ME SOME HAAAAAAM!”), but she’s sure as hell going to do her best to go about it. Even if it’s the most awkward journey you’ve ever witnessed.

    And while Lemon’s attempts at normalcy are one of the show’s central gems, I posit that there’s a 30 Rock answer to everything — from ill-advised haircuts and wealth to paint colors. So let’s go through and pick the best tidbits of Liz et al., and maybe we’ll all have life figured out by the end of it. Or at least we’ll know to avoid the Sabors de Soledad.

    When in doubt, consider sandwiches

    “All of humankind has one thing in common: the sandwich. I believe that all anyone really wants in this life is to sit in peace and eat a sandwich.”

    Age ain’t nothing but a number, especially if you’re well-to-do

    “50 is the new 40 for men. 50 is still 60 for women.” – Jack, to Liz.

    “Rich 50 is middle class 38, Lemon.” – Jack. Never were truer words spoken.

    Questionable food choices are the best food choices

    “You take a hot dog, stuff it with some Jack cheese, and fold it in a pizza. You’ve got cheesy blasters!”

    Seriously, though... that Carp Po' Boy with Extra Chuckle from Fatty Fat’s Sandwich Ranch wasn’t her finest moment.

    Sentence structure is irrelevant

    Because “I want to go to there” is pretty much the reasoning behind any human desire, and “What the what?!” communicates every aspect of confusion.

    Getting out of jury duty is easy as pie

    Just pretend to be a hologram.

    Dealbreakers are a real thing

    “Yeah, there's no such thing as bisexual. That's just something they invented in the '90s to sell hair products. Deal breaker!” – Liz

    There’s nothing wrong about being alone. Maybe

    “I was going to take this class called Cooking for One, but the teacher killed himself.” – Liz

    The harsh reality of one-too-many eye rolls is one we all must consider

    “I want to roll my eyes right now but the doctor said if I keep doing it, my ocular muscles might spasm and eject my eyeballs.” – Liz

    Who needs bipartisanship, anyway?

    “I don’t vote Republican or Democrat. Choosing is a sin, so I always just write in the Lord’s name!” – Kenneth

    Live every week like it’s Shark Week

    Enough said.

    No role is too small

    Remember The Rural Juror? Jenna does.

    Birthday gifts are a no-brainer

    Don Cheadle on a bed of rice.

    There you have it, dummy. Life’s commandments, as brought to us by the cast and crew at TGS. I’m going to miss this show more than I care to admit, but I’ll always have Meat Cat. Lemon out. Forever.

    Rapper A$AP Rocky brings 'Don't Be Dumb' summer tour to Houston

    A$AP Rocky will perform at the Toyota Center in Houston on Saturday, June 20.

    Fresh off an appearance as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live, rapper/aspiring actor A$AP Rocky will go on the road with his 2026 Don’t Be Dumb World Tour, which will include a stop at the Toyota Center in Houston on Saturday, June 20.

    The 42-date tour will start in Chicago on May 27, with the 25-city North American leg lasting through July 11.

    There will be three Texas stops in the middle — Houston will follow Dallas on June 18 and Austin on June 19.

    The tour is named after A$AP Rocky's new album, Don’t Be Dumb, his first full-length release in eight years.

    Rocky's first two albums went to No. 1 on Billboard's overall 200, R&B/Hip Hop, and Rap charts, while 2018's Testing took a slight step back, still finishing in the top five of all three.

    The rapper gained big notice as an actor in 2025, co-starring in two A24-produced films - Highest 2 Lowest, directed by Spike Lee, and the Golden Globe-winning If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.

    Rocky's appearance on SNL included a cameo in a sketch alongside host Finn Wolfhard, as well as him performing “Punk Rocky” and a medley of the album’s title track and “Helicopter$."



    Rocky also served as co-chair of the 2025 Met Gala, was announced as the creative director for Ray-Ban, and was appointed as Chanel’s new house ambassador.

    To participate in A$AP Rocky’s Artist Presale in North America on Friday, January 23 at 10 am, fans must sign up at livemu.sc/asaprocky by Wednesday, January 21 at 9 pm.

    Artist Presales for this tour are hosted by multiple ticketing sites but anyone who signs up can join the sale. For Artist Presales on Ticketmaster, no code is needed - access is tied to a user's account.

    There will also be a presale for Cash App Card customers starting on Wednesday, January 21 at 10 am.

    The global general on sale will go live on January 27 at 9 am at ASAPROCKY.COM.
