This is the episode where I checked out. Did you see the liquor bottles in the space hotel? Do you know how much they’d have to charge per drink to make up for the cost of getting those up there?

I laughed harder at the Blue Beetle’s suit speaking to him in Spanish than at any other piece of media this year. 

Gandhi had an intermission. The Right Stuff had an intermission.

I’m pleased that my back-of-the napkin calculation for my fuel cost equivalence was really close to what a think tank came up with after crunching data (I had assumed roughly $1.25 per gallon equivalent to charge my vehicle residentially — they say $1.21). That’s my marginal cost. All of the other costs are sunk…

We had a place (used to be a food truck) that did basically just grilled cheese sandwiches. For $12. I think that came with a handful of chips.

I’m shocked that Lois & Clark wasn’t referenced even once.

I’m shocked that the actual demons on that show, Tony and Steve, didn’t make this list. Appalled, actually.

Fortunately I’m close enough to Canada that we can make the occasional weekend trip to stock up on chocolate and baguettes.

He thinks it was bad being in it? He should try watching it.

Even if it wasn’t always great, there are things about Discovery I will always appreciate:

But Ria just gave you an example of how a romance could conceivably bloom organically during the course of gameplay. The developers chose not only to not go down a homosexual route, but to avoid a healthy route as well.

Other options are just wildly inappropriate

Try the Nug-ees from Buc-ee’s if you haven’t already.

Shades of Apple’s “you’re holding it wrong.”

Not very.

/Strange New Worlds has entered the chat.

I have never even heard of reindeer corn. That is an incredibly cynical attempt by candy makers to get more use out of those candy corn machines. Is there a bunny corn that comes out around Easter that I’m also unfamiliar with?

I buy pricier eggs to help make sure the chickens are treated better. But the flavor of every egg available to me is just meh when compared to the eggs in literally every other country I’ve ever set foot in.

Gotta be honest -- not feeling captivated by any of these moments.

The silver lining? A bunch of right wingers will now willingly buy and play a thoroughly mediocre game.
