Get the winrey mug.The Deepak Chopra of talk show hosts. A god to soccer moms everywhere, and an egregious blight on everyone else. While her work ethic and her ability to overcome the horrid obstacles of her early life should be admired, she uses her platform as one of the most influential women on the planet to peddle woo, promote empty, platitudinous feel-good pop psychology horseshit, and give a prominent platform for the often-harmful advice of hacks and charlatans (see Dr. Phil, "psychologist", Dr. Oz, energy-healing quack, Jenny McCarthy, anti-vaccine kook, and, again, Deepak Chopra, for prominent examples). Every time she's on air, she has the opportunity to provide the truth and give people useful information to live by, but instead, kowtows to quackery, clapping like a trained seal in the process. As such, her influence does a disservice to the critical thinking skills of the general public, and should be considered nothing but a pus-filled carbuncle - nay - a malignant cancer on the asshole of Reason by any person who values their critical faculties. Fuck Oprah, and everything that snake oil-peddling, self-important cow stands for!
Bob: Did you watch Oprah Winfrey yesterday?
Greg: No, why?
Bob: She had a psychic come on the show to discuss her new book about crystal healing being used to cure cancer, and why you don't needn't consult a medical professional for treatment any longer. And the stupid, mindless pack of sycophantic soccer moms gobbled it up like it was the fucking Gospel!
Greg: *facepalm* This is why we can't have nice things!

Get the oprah winfrey mug.Winry Rockbell is the childhood friend of Edward and Alphonse Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist. She is a skilled automail mechanic and engineer--she made Edward's right arm and left leg when he had made a mistake from human transmuation.
Winry lives in the quiet countryside of Resembool, where she was raised by her grandmother from her dad's side. Her parents were brilliant doctors who helped out in the Ishvalan civil war, and they were killed by their own Ishvalan patient--Scar (who, at that time, was unconscious).
Winry is not only there because she is Ed's mechanic, but she is the constant support of both Ed and Al, and she represents the "normal" person of the FMA society.
Not only did she give Edward an arm and a leg, but she also helped a mother deliver a baby, saving both of their lives. She helped Al make up with Edward after they had a quarrel. Winry also helped rid Scar's (who had killed her parents) vengeance against State Alchemists--she actually tends to his wounds, and she cleverly uses herself as a "hostage" of Scar to distract the enemy.
In the end, she is an important part to the plot in FMA, and without her, some things would have been left out or changed completely.
Winry accepts Edward's proposal two years later after the defeat of the antagonist in FMA (Father), and they get married and have two children (an older boy and a younger girl) in the future.

FMA fan 1: "You know Winry Rockbell from FMA?"
FMA fan 2: "That one mechanic that's always paired up with Ed? She's sooo useless! She never does anything important, and she's only there to be Ed's mechanic. And Ed's MINE!"
FMA fan 1: "Uh, go read the manga...because obviously, you're still a newbie to FMA."

Get the Winry Rockbell mug.Most frequently seen on the Oprah Winfrey Show: quaint yet vapid and insipid New-Agey platitudes about life specifically designed to make you feel good about yourself so you 1) don't have to change anything and 2) don't have to ask yourself difficult questions that might make you think. They often assume the Bible is the answer to all life's problems. Replete with words like "inner self," "sharing," "healing," "New Earth healer," "Deepak Chopra," Doctor Phil" etc.
OprahBot 1.0: Did you see the latest episode of Oprah? She told me that I need to be a guru to my child and that the Bible holds all the answers!
Me: come on...those are just Oprah Winfreyisms and you know it...you're better than that.
OprahBot 1.0: HERETIC! GET HIM, FELLOW DISENFRANCHISED AND BORED HOUSEWIVES! punchpunchpunchkickkickstabstab
