The beauty of the patch/eyepatch question is that the answer isn’t truly an either/or. You can have your casual glass eye for when you’re out and about taking care of day-to-day things and want to be inconspicuous, and then you can always just put on an eyepatch for when you want to look like Nick Fury. Best of both…

There is no more sure-fire way to make a person grumpy than to tell them that they look grumpy, and need to stop being grumpy.

Yeah, price discontent is always a tricky thing, and usually has a lot to do with the person grumbling not understanding the economics involved.

I know some people that run a sort of nerd social club in Seattle. It's a pretty sweet space, and tends to be a bit better for running a recurring RPG than just the local game shop or gaming pub, which are really better suited for tournament-style games.

The Denim Kit is a national treasure.

Yeah, 300 fits there for me as well. I also thought that it went a bit too far in glorifying the Spartans, who were pretty much just a fascist military dictatorship with a side-order of pederasty.

One of my groomsmen makes custom action figures as a hobby. The cake topper he made for us involved modifying a set of Thor and Sif action figures. It remains one of my favorite things ever.

I would pay good money for a Garak cameo.

It's like saying all soup is the same, which is absurd. Yes, there are many common characteristics shared across soup varieties, but it's how those common characteristics are used that makes them different.

Ye gods, he could turn Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen into absolute juggernauts.

Yeah, if this were last year, I have to figure Klopp would have been on the radar. However, Pochettino has done an excellent job, and is probably going to stay on for at least a few years, given that Spurs is a side in need of some consistency. Klopp would definitely have his work cut out for him at City, though. I…

Okay, real talk here. There are plenty of reasons to hate A-Rod that have nothing to do with PEDs. Hell, us Mariners fans were hating A-Rod for years before the PED accusations came to light. We’ve hated him for 14 years now, ever since he went to the Rangers. Now, in all fairness, the Rangers dumped a ginormous dump…

It looked to me more like some form of brain damage, given that she seems relatively young for senility or Alzheimer's. The question, then, was it suffered as a result of trauma during the Battle of New York, or something more mundane by comparison?

So Claire is basically "Night Nurse," who is sort of the healthcare provider to the supers, which I anticipate to mean that she might act as a supporting character throughout the rest of the Netflix series.

Wilson Fisk holds out a hand for a handkerchief to wipe away the blood and sputum covering his face.
Wesley hands him the handkerchief, and says "AAAAAASSSS YOOOOOUUUU WIIIIISSSSSHHHH!!!"

Far out! Dortmund is one of my favorites, too! After the 2010 World Cup, I found myself looking for the tactical mongoose to the cobra that was Spain's Tiki Taka. I found my answer in Jurgen Klopp's gegenpress, and I haven't looked back.

Plus, Arsenal have a system in place that means they will always embrace an attractive, free-flowing attacking play style that is fun to watch. Unfortunately, Wenger still hasn't figured out what a defensive midfielder is, so it means that wins will typically be the result of flat-out outscoring their opposition,…

The difficulty is that, as Americans, most of us have few direct ties to a European team. Thus, we end up supporting teams that we enjoy watching or who have players we appreciate. You can say you hate Man U, or Arsenal, or Man City, or Chelsea all you like, but the fact is, a neutral with no particular rooting…

Ballast Point has become one of my favorite breweries over the past couple of years. If you want a killer stout, I strongly recommend you check out their Victory at Sea.

If you ever get a chance, I highly recommend Ballast Point's Victory At Sea Imperial Stout. It is probably one of the tastiest out there. Not sure about their distribution, so it might not be something readily available in your neck of the woods, but I've seen it in Washington, Oregon, and California, for what it's…
