This is still just rearranging the deck chairs. It's a joke.

The take home from this is that the National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior is not a reliably accurate source.

An idiot, who thinks he's smart, will not shut up, and will kill you as soon as look at you. Yeah, he's a finalist. (Also, has no concept of gun safety.)

Silence, minion!

I would, however, pay good money to see the two of the thrown into the Thunderdome, as long as I don't have to drive the survivor back home.

A friend of mine once claimed that a lot of the made up names from Star Trek were lifted straight out of an anatomy text.

It is a bit of a technicality if you ask me. Mammals are the only surviving branch of the Synapsids, which means we are far removed from all living reptiles and thus tend to get grouped together even if, as with the Monotremes, it seems a bit of a stretch.

Never mind the costume, has he learned to use a bow yet?

at what point?... at what point?...

or just a tribute to William Theiss...

I've got a better one:

The first is a huge, gaping plot hole. This is science fiction, and they failed the science big time.

He's basically Spock without the denial of emotion.

The early church was happy just to segregate the baths by sex.

Also, I noticed that they have less of a ritualistic imperative to wash their hands before eating, and a correspondingly greater insistence on using a knife and fork.

Rumor has it that being married to an outstanding, uncredited film editor did a lot for his early movies, and rewatching them with this in mind I believe the rumor.

This isn't the worst villain adaptation exactly, but it is the most egregious, because Dr Doom is MORE ICONIC THAN THE FANTASTIC FOUR! You could reinvent the FF and half of the comics fans would shrug, but DOOM is different. To hold true (however poorly executed) to the FF and reinvent DOOM shows a serious lack of

It is taboo precisely because it has the stink of the inevitable. A comically arbitrary set of borders slapped down on the map in a fever dream of imperial omnipotence and ruled over by an empire that seems bent on beating out the Mongols for the "Most Extreme Imperial Overreach Ever" prize.

I'm not enough of a linguist to say this with any authority, but I get the impression that English minus French vocabulary pretty much is a Scandinavian language, but I can't make out what Norwegians are saying to save my life.

Someone has internalized the Treaty of Westphalia system of international borders. Seriously, you have to really believe in the existence of these borders on the map as something more than armistice lines for any of this to make sense.
