I had that issue in 1983, and Rolling Stone’s cover line was PRINCE’S HOT ROCK, because smutty sold back then in them stagecoach days. Smut! Everywhere!

Well, from a fellow critic who knows him, in Entertainment Weekly: “I truly do believe that Armond White comes to the vast majority of his opinions honestly. He’s a gay African-American fundamentalist-Christian aesthete, and if that doesn’t make him an individual, I don’t know what would. But it seems to me that…

Holy SHIT, a lot of very famous people died in 2018. It’s kind of boggling.  I suppose getting older like I am, you just know of more people, but wow. 

He has to live with Mortdecai on his CV for the rest of his days, though.

I recall reading that on the dirty Bowery NYC in the 19th century, workingmen in bars really did eat raw onions like apples. As if they didn’t smell horrid already.  No word on what kind of onions though. 

I remember those days like Pepperidge Farm does- a D-minus was subtly more devastating than an F, because it indicated they actually tried and failed to make something good. Whereas an F was an irredeemable piece of shit even the creators didn’t care about.

And I find Ignatiy to be well-written and astute on films, a very good critic, so double the laffs at someone clueless trying to diss him.

Oh wow- that reminds me, I have Kenneth William’s diaries but haven’t gotten far into it yet. He’s not known well or at all in the US, nor by me really, but I am interested in his era, and diaries from then, and he seems to have met everyone back then. Interesting career. Must pick it up again, thx!

“And in case anyone doesn’t know, he’s black. So this is even more obvious than his usual troll jobs.”- He’s also gay, so his conservatism seems like.. I just don’t know. Some professional trauma in his past, where his career is, “I’ll show them” and doubling down to own the libs or something. I have to admit, I som…

There was a comedian a few years ago riffing on the practical difficulties of having a sex-robot brothel, and holy fuck it was funny. “Gotta flush out the jizz gasket again” and “Damn, humans are sick creatures, who shit in the robot’s mouth?”. I wish I could remember who it was.

No, Elton. And the ghost of Princess Margaret, calling out loudly for another drinkie. 

The gold piano is a loaner from Elton. 

God Bless Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Long may she rule.

It really isn’t.  Disqus is miles ahead, it’s functional and widespread and works well for me, notifications actually work, I can see who reacts or responds to me.  You prefer the mess of Kinja?   More power to ya. 

Hope you’re aware what you wrote was some disingenuous bullshit.  No one is blaming seismic activity on climate change, and saying that effort and money spent fighting climate change somehow takes away from aiding victims of natural disasters is breathtaking false trash with no basis in fact. 

Why reply to someone there, PV, who 1. falsely suggests anyone is blaming eternal natural disasters like volcanic seismic activity that triggers tsunamis on climate change, and then 2. suggests falsely that spending money and effort on climate change somehow takes money and effort away from the victims of natural…

Eyes peeled for Santa soon, he lives near you.. :)  XO! 

A.V. Club sucked once again. An Amazon Deals site with occasional cultural commentary about dumb TV shows I don’t care about, but it’s cheap content, yay for the bottom line. No offense to the many great writers here, sincerely- you are awesome. Always glad to see the byline 0r comment from a survivor from Before…

I seem to remember liking some of the action scenes in FF:Rise of the Surfer, his flying around with fuh-laming! Johnny Storm chasing him, through the skies and subway. And.. that’s all I really want from the Silver Surfer, because he’s actually not that interesting. Sharing the same grandiose pop-Shakeperean…
