I'm gonna say Nazi Punks: Fuck Off. Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain Punks: Fuck ON. Take that shit right back, Jain Punks!

I'm not fond of these comments either, but anybody dismissing Glenn as a talentless has-been is hereby warned that I'll put a knife right in you.

'Lockstep' is excessive, but you're right—a lot of metal and hard rock luminaries are taking the 'nobody fucks with Testament' routine to the political level. It's a bummer.

Okay, that's fair.

No. I'm saying you seem to want to imply what you don't have the nuts to say, and then I'm asking you a fucking question. I'll add another one: do you think being coy makes you look clever?

What are you saying? Are you saying anything? 'Fascinated' feels kinda passive-aggressive; 'someone,' more so. I'm standing right here.

Totes.

I am generally insensitive, and I enjoy a good off-colour joke at the expense of PC warriors.

I enjoyed that so, so much.

Is she going the ultra-minimalist Mark Rylance route these days, or did something happen to her? I feel her post-X-Files affect is as paralysed as Beat Takeshi's post-accident face. I am not complaining: I've found her stuff lately, from Hannibal to that Irish serial killer thing to this, to be super-arresting,…

Numerous corroborating reports put Cusack down as a significant cock that many do not enjoy working with, which may be contributing to his relative absence and shitty late oeuvre. That would suck, as the dude is beyond delightful to watch.

This looks like a prime cut of meat.

Fuck. I gotta brush up. I haven't seen any of this shit since it all came out. I used to wear 'original TV viewer!' like such a badge, but now I wish I had just seen it as an adult. Pre-teen Chili Enema Medicine was not the most reliable of pop culture analysts.

I thought it was her, but disfigured by more time now in the Lodge than she ever spent in real life. I mean, dude, sometimes her arms bend backward.

I'd buy that if Dougie was a person, but he seems to me to have been some kind of Bob-golem created specifically to confuse the signal that would drag Bob Cooper back into the Lodge. Rather than a complete dude. I think Dougie is toast. Or, uh, a bead.

What do people make of the Laura scene? Did she sacrifice herself to loosen the Lodge's grip on him? That scene read that way to me, but then Bob Coop pretty clearly has been working with a precise death clock for some time. So maybe she was just being punished for even talking to the prisoner?

I thought Mike was aiding Coop from the Lodge. A number of forces there seem to have some power to aid him even from their imprisonment.

I've been busy. But since you asked me to take this seriously, I'm going to take it seriously. Give me a minute to gather my reply.

Mr. O'Neal: thank you. You are a treasure of the form. Always a pleasure.

Fuckin A, kid.
