For the record, They don’t like being called “horse people”. Centaur is the preferred nomenclature.

Unimpressed. The IOC should have Sepultura open the games with “Territory”. It feels oddly appropriate.

I work at an office with this freakishly tall dude. I’m average height, so I thought it would be funny if I acted like we were in the same height category. This guy has never laughed at my joke, and I realized that it really bothered him. I’ve been doing this for two years just to see how long it takes for him to…

Yeah, fuck jellyfish

Man, I love the conveyor belt grocery game - I’ll even rearrange items that I’ve already placed on the moving belt to achieve optimum bagging efficiency and grocery protection. I get moderately angry when the checker ignores my perfect placement and sequence, reaches back in the order, and puts the laundry detergent…

On the Gawker sites, anything DC is inherently bad unless it’s a TV show. But those TV shows are nothing compared to Marvel shows, which have nothing on Dr Who. Dr Who is the default standard of greatness in TV. The MCU is the default standard of greatness in movies and will never be held to any sort of standard like…

This spoilery review starts assuming MOS was bad, again saying Superman was just killing civilians in a place that was a war zone thanks to the world engine and it is now desolated. I loved that movie and I really starting to hate why the F! does a movie can only be good if it had jokes. I can enjoy Deadpool and I can…

this movie is relentlessly grim and gritty and resolutely No Fun Whatsoever

Either way, everyone is fucked when THANOSEID comes:

I have a real soft spot for Amalgam. Same with DC’s Elseworlds. I have a soft spot for high-concept experimentation, even if the results are uneven, at best. Amalgam was too prone to presenting as many characters as possible. They often contradicted each other, existing solely for the sake of existing.

Doctor Strangefate was my favorite.

That’s all well and good, but if I set my alarm for 20 minutes, I’ll lay there thinking about falling asleep for 20 minutes.

I feel like you have an equal chance putting on a shirt the right way in the dark as you do plugging in a USB the right way the first time without checking: roughly 0%.

Yeah. Your mileage may vary on All-Star Superman. Looking at it right now on my shelf, I’ll go ahead and say it was kind of hokey and falls apart completely in book two. Its one saving grace was the Lex Luthor plot, but I dare you to ask anyone what the book was actually ABOUT and by the time you get to a planet full…

There are a lot of different issues combined here. Diversity on UK TV is not just about race. It’s increasingly difficult for working class actors to become successful, which affects BAME actors disproportionately but is not limited to them. The rise of the Old Etonians and Harrovians (Hugh Laurie, Damian Lewis,…

“There I was, enjoying a light repast at the Applebuddies club, engaging in a fine and stimulating discussion of Amanda McKittrick Ros’s brilliant use of simile and metaphor, when suddenly what should assault my ears but some jenny foreigner defiling the rarefied air of our great nation with her native tongue! Well I…

Do you guys see this too? Benedryl Cummerbund as Victor von Doom??

I just feel like Pictorial should have pictures
