I’ve listened to a lot of story tellers and no one could tell a story better than Piper. I had one my top five hangovers before his Dragon Con panel and he was the best I ever heard. Had to get up way too early and drive a long ways for another Piper panel but damn if you ever heard him tell stories about wrestling…

I’m a fan of slap stick and just love ‘em. It is kind of like the Three Stooges if they had hundreds of Curly.

Gloating isn’t nice, unless the other people are assholes then it’s perfectly acceptable to gloat in the face of assholes.

Another combiner? Cool!

Kind of seems like a lot of wasted effort could be applied to so many things in life. Do you really need sporting events to see who can score the most points?

It seems we hear “death of” stories all the time in entertainment. The death of the mega budget tent pole summer action film. The death of scripted television. The death of American animation. The death of books. When people start throwing around the death word for a form of entertainment I want to say “You Keep Using…

I figure the only reason Johnny was white was because when Marvel rolled out the comic book you couldn’t sell comic books to white kids with anything but white heroes in them. So if you were making the characters now they could be any race.

Good point. With so much of the Chinese economy being dependent on trade with either the United States or the close allies of the United States it seems like any sort of conflict would be bad for business.

The new guy at work asked me why I stopped playing WoW and my reason was because it had gotten so far away from vanilla WoW. So much of the game is just dead zones now, it’s just no fun to go to the old expansion places just to find them empty of players. The game used to have a play as you want feel but it’s like it…

The tattoos I don’t mind. Some are more fitting than others but hey I guess even the Joker can get a bad tattoos after a crazy weekend of Tequila and laughing gas. But the grill just doesn’t work for me.

From a defensive stand point having a mobile airstrip isn't such a bad idea. China would know where all the land based military airfields are at but a carrier has to be successfully tracked to know where air assets were at any given time.

With the way the refueling receptacle transforms you'd almost think they had just finished fueling Megatron.

I wonder if it's not at least in part to keep the tongue in cheek silly factor of video games and anime? Given all the absurd things that can happen in anime it seems like realism left the building long before only the girls clothing gets destroyed and boobs don't move the right way.

Looks like the only new GI Joe thing we will be getting this year. But I'll be glad to take any GI Joe vs Transformers nods we can get since we don't get many of them.

I've read the commits where some Transformers fans are complaining about all sorts of minor things that keep it from being 100% perfect. Me on the other hand I'm thinking six large Constructicons that looks G1 that I don't have to track down the individual robots and at $150 it's a fraction of the cost of third…

I've been at anime so long I remember when Starblazers and Speed Racer reruns where shown on the local TV stations that wanted to fill time with cartoons but that couldn't afford the American cartoons. Back in the days of having to go to something like a comic book convention to buy bootleg fan subtitled copies of…

The same feeling.

The same feeling.

I think the thing we should be talking about is how the divisions are getting less and less competitive. It's no longer a question of who will be the AFC East champ because everyone knows the Bills, Dolphins, and Jets have no chance at all of winning the AFC East. The only division that had any real questions about…

No Deadspin didn't make us buy a cable package to get coverage of the game.
