What's disappointing here is that having a plausible AR with George Washington as a bad guy should really only serve to highlight all the good choices Washington actually made, and why, all things considered, we probably couldn't have had a better choice for a first president.

NK doesn't have the means to deliver a warhead to the U.S. (short of shipping it)- it's no more capable of MAD than either of the other two listed. The reasons (ostensibly) that Iraq and Afghanistan were invaded had to do with their actions in other countries (With Iraq, it was Kuwait the first time, and…

This post made me make chicken and waffles for dinner. See what you've done?

I can't be the only one bothered by the mix of GS and RBY sprites on the Pokemon plate.

I'm talking about the Latin root itself (silva) - it literally means "woods" (or plant, or forest, etc.).

The "sylvia" prefix isn't nymph so much as it is specifically "forest." Like you said, there's already a grass-type, which probably precludes that, but there's no real confusion with the root of the name.

Huh, so it does. I only looked at the timeline tree, not the specific pages for Ages/Seasons.

It's the colloquial use of the question mark that's tripping you up, because he's not really asking a question. The context of the rest of his post should make this…

The cross between the crass innuendo and the baby talk (mommy) is what really sells this one.

Come now, headbutt isn't super effective against anything. It's a normal-type.

This is incredibly circular. Please read what I'm saying.

Do you understand what the person was saying? Because in the text of the article, the author says that "[the reviewer] missed the fact that JC's version and Glee's version are identical," which is in fact not at all what happened. The reviewer didn't make a comparison between JC's version and Glee's version - just…

Fun with antecedents:

They obviously had to promote him out - he could communicate with people!

Well, Bruce Wayne certainly is.

For the uninitiated:

His blast shield wasn't down in the cockpit - his targeting computer was off, but the only time we ever saw someone with a blast shield down was when Luke was training with the remote on the Falcon.

"Moonie" has a distinct meaning in the greater lexicon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonie_%28nickname%29
