He should be wearing a helmet.

“We anticipate a deluge of skate trolls piling on the clip in its comments section, claiming Williams isn’t actually doing anything all that complex, to which we say: Shut the absolute hell up, jerks. You try making it in Detroit, accomplishing just that, then closing out a live news piece while cruising around a…

“Blatantly[...]not the best advice” is a delicious turn of phrase.

It’s neat but I honestly have no idea on price. It seems reasonable? Replacing the carb can’t be much work, and as Rob notes, it’s dirt simple to work on.

The problem is it is hard to “provide context” for an hour+ long comedy special that has multiple themes throughout that intertwine at different times. Providing a cliff notes version for something like that just doesn’t work.

Unfortunately, the price is much too high since it’s just a downpayment on a new motor, plus lots of other “fun” secrets yet to be discovered. At $3000 or so, if I had the time and enough interest, it would be an affordable and possibly fun project. At the asking price, not so much. Nope.

Somewhere in Tokyo, a washed-up former host bar proprietor and a mousy accountant have figured out that they could make more money with a flop than they could with a hit

Yeah, it definitely lessens him to discuss this. He generally comes off pretty mature outside of this beef and it only diminishes him to be involved in it.

It worked pretty well for John Wayne in The Shootist (1976), which was a riff on his cowboy roles from the ‘30s and ‘40s. I imagine that’s the vibe Mangold is going for. Dunno if it’ll connect with the public.

BC2's multiplayer was very very very good.

Sure the Federal Government can afford it but are they going to pay for every tool in the entire country? This as usual would affect the poor far more than anyone else. Do you have any idea how much and how long it takes a poor craftsman to collect tools? The personal cost of replacement isn’t viable without the…

Except this isn’t the case, and assumes the change itself is in a vacuum. Suddenly changing the system means that people in the company have to get used to it, easier or not; this is why even though Apple theoretically has a more user friendly OS, someone coming from Windows will still have a hard time using it…

We’ve tried. Repeatedly.

I was with you until the end there. What they’ve done with X-Men in the last couple of years might be some of the best writing and story development since Clairmont and might finally give us a film franchise that isn’t just waiting for some hack to shitcan it with their version of Dark Phoenix.  They’ve also done some…

The thing about Monk is, it got increasingly embarrassing as it went on, whereas Psych, while it had episodes that were big misses, generally stayed amusing, interesting, and charming all the way through. This includes the two movies (I liked the second one a lot and the first one was fine). Very much looking forward…

Don’t forget Shawn regularly mocked “The Mentalist”, which apparently  exists in their universe, for having a similar idea. 

Shawn and Gus are both on other shows. They can’t just do the show again.

The first two movies were frankly pretty mediocre, as much fun as it is just to see the gang together again. I think that was probably unavoidable — they write these movies around all the other projects the cast has going on, and Omundson’s stroke apparently really scotched some of their plans for the first movie, so…

“the very good (if not quite as good as Monk, but what is?) USA Network mystery-comedy series”

Sometimes something pops up when you really need it, even though you didn’t know you did.
