I see what you did there. 

To be fair, the “hat” probably prevents a glare from the sun under certain conditions/angles. 

The craziest thing about Hildi I recall is her decorating a kitchen’s walls with wine bottle labels. Not on the surface “terrible” but the homeowners were teetotaler. And she knew this. Went ahead anyway.

She’s still loony as all get-out, back in the original iteration of the show I had noted how she seemed to have a

Yes, what kind of ridiculous society embraces blue-collarism and chides, insults and often out-right ignores intelligent behavior and points of view?


You know, I don’t think that Savior was far enough away from Rosita for the warhead in the RPG to arm so it shouldn’t have exploded. The guy wouldn’t have been happy as still would’ve been seriously hurt or killed, but not exploded.

I suspect the microwave was a planted “mailbox” in the area.

Seth MacFarlane himself and Fox. Not a good “first episode” to see. I recommend watching almost any of the other previous episodes via either Fox’s website or your cable company’s OnDemand service. I high recommend the episode from a couple weeks ago, “Majority Rule” which, for me, is the best episode of the season so

I thought this episode was really good and it’s interesting, and easy, to dive into the things it was trying to say and the allegories it was trying to make. I think it’s easier to think of this show as something closer to TOS than TNG, both series used their setting and premise to confront present-day issues in an

FWIW they didn’t save her from crashing into “the” sun but into *a* sun (or star. rather.) “The Sun” implies our sun Sol, the one Earth orbits. “a sun” implies any other star that hosts a planetary system. (Though, again, it’s a “star” since “Sun” is still the name of our host star in English.)

Seriously, what was with Discovery and all of the dutch angles?! Was it trying to be Battlefield Earth?!

I’ve been a Star Trek fan since I was 12 or 13 years old. I love the show, and have seen every episode of its various incarnations. (Except for the CBS All-Access “Discovery”) A big fan of TNG as it’s what pulled me in, lesser a fan of Voyager. DS9 was good, Enterprise largely meh. And TOS is just classic.

For me,

Chekov’s Pot Brownie (or “Cannabis Edible”), I had the same question to on what happened to it and then dismissed as the show’s clumsy way of showing this future’s progressive ideals when it comes to casual drug use.

But, it sort of plays a, minor, role in the reconnection between Mercer and Grayson’s reconciliation

It’s probably worth noting any life on this planet when the sun turns into a Red Giant won’t be “humans” no matter how we shape up and turn out in the coming centuries or millennia, the life that’ll be around when the sun turns into a Red Giant will be as far removed from us as we are from the very first, single-cell

I dunno, things would probably work a bit differently if the ancient soldiers didn’t have the same AI as a mid-90s console game. I don’t actual medieval soldiers all clumped together, sort of stood there pushing against one another, while not using their swords at all.

I use MSPaint to create quick memes, political cartoons/commentaries and stuff like that. I just opened up Paint 3D and tinkered around with it while there’s possibilities there the selection of tools just isn’t there for making quick, 2D, images. It needs an option in it to just make simple 2D images and shapes.

“plenty of robot-on-robot action”

Oooo! Tell me more!

Read this article. Laughed quite a bit. Congrats, little on the Internet makes me laugh anymore.

“Our new collections focus on comfort, fit, functionality and contemporary professionalism, delivering a uniform that crew and managers will feel comfortable to work in and proud to wear,”

It’s always amusing to me how planned, manufactured and purposeful “official statements” or comments from businesses can be in

It’s sad to me how many people are quick to side with the airline and call this guy out for his “behavior.”

This wasn’t a guy causing a disturbance, making any noise, was a threat to the security and safety of the plane, he was a paying customer sitting his seat, he had a destination to get to and presumably a time he

“But in fairness to the dumbass, the new electric trains in the area are pretty quiet.”

No. No. No. The train is still visible and the crossing lights and bells and everything are still there. Stop. Look. Listen. This person didn’t do the first, half-assed the second, and was unable, or incapable, of the doing the
