Dinosaurs on a Spaceship

That's an ass-backwards articulation of the pro-choice position. The point is, "let the mother decide," not "the more babies killed, the better."

Last week it was "the Doctor is insufficiently respectful toward the military." This week it's "the Doctor needs to be less patronizing." Well, the Doctor is a thousand-year-old space god who has saved the earth, the universe, and the space-time continuum a million times. I think we should cut him some slack. I'm…

No shit, Sherlock.

Minimalist art is art, just minimally so.

I don't think there are any direcats in Game of Thrones, but shadowcats have been mentioned a couple of times. When are we gonna see some shadowcats? What are they like? Why aren't they in every episode?

I did this, just for you:

I like cats and Game of Thrones as much as the next guy, but come on. "Great Job Internet" should honor projects that (a) I couldn't have done myself, and (b) took more than ten minutes to accomplish. E.g., man builds life-sized Millennium Falcon out of Legos.

Agreed, some of the subplots were annoying and/or badly developed. The Jewish thug who finds religion subplot was especially stupid. But the show was so short-lived that I don't judge its missteps too harshly.

"You fucked your sister, you little pervert!" = clearly a much better title for this article.

I bet many of your students grew up with these films and know them backwards and forwards, in the same way that I grew up on Star Wars and GI Joe. Why not expose students to something unfamiliar, challenging, outside their comfort zone? Sure, you can talk about important race/class/gender issues in relation to…

In my college days, I kept my geeky pop culture interests separate from my nerdy academic interests. Don't shit where you eat.

Instead of "Director of Obama's America," maybe D'Souza should be referred to as "man who kicked his wife in the head."

Like the term "food porn" (frequently used on the AV Club) for the radical concept of images of food that looks really tasty.

I first heard the term "lifehacking" in relation to Tim Ferris' dubious self-help books. As I understand it, the idea is to master an activity in a super-efficient way, by boiling it down to its essentials…so that it becomes possible to achieve amazing feats like losing 20 pounds in a week, becoming fluent in…

If the Holiday Special were on TV right now, I'd totally watch it. Crystal Skull: no.

I love, love, love Spaced, but not the movies (they were amusing, but if I never see them again, fine with me).

(a) Mothers of Invention, "We're Only in It for the Money." I had a buddy in college who was a Zappa freak…I was exposed to many of his ten thousand albums, but this is the only one I ever want to listen to nowadays.
(b) Jethro Tull, "Aqualung" (album)
(c) King Crimson, "21st Century Schizoid Man." I respect King…

I liked Extras all the way through. I hated Life's Too Short, except for the Liam Neeson bit.

No, Hawkwind. (That's my answer to all of these suggestions. I'm not very good at this game.)
