It's no secret that anarchists love cats. I've seen ACAB employed as "All Cats Are Beautiful" more times than its actual meaning.

The last few KLK episodes have been fucking crazy

Rewatched season one of the Boondocks recently. Does not hold up, but you can't really expect a topical Bush-era show to do so.

Pitchfork improved immeasurably when Ryan Schreiber stopped writing.

It's salsa for me. That chip was my favorite human invention.

Heaux heaux heaux.

It's blasphemous not because it implies that Calvin will at some point have sex, but because it somehow condemns that. So I guess more destructively nostalgic than blasphemous.

Oh, and Doris.

Danny Brown's album

Been meaning to check these guys out ever since I saw Fat Creeps do a cover set of their stuff for a Halloween show a couple weeks ago. Good timing.

Girl O'Clock: Best and most accurate song ever written about sexual frustration, or absolute best and most accurate song ever written about sexual frustration?

It's interesting how that joke manages to predate both "Tiny Dancer" and the career of Tony Danza.

" Maxine is a lot of fun to be around, even when she’s making the wrong decision" — that seems like one of Pynchon's subtler hallmarks, doesn't it? I think Harold Bloom remarked that even though Oedipa Maas doesn't have many distinctive characteristics, she's written in a way that's just eminently likeable. Maybe it's…

Trouble is just the worst since it doesn't play to her strengths at all. The pseudo-dubstep sound doesn't mesh with her style whatsoever. That said, I really enjoyed her last album as a whole. She writes catchy songs and her lyrics, while nothing special, aren't nearly as bad as you might expect

That's an oddly middling blurb for Sudden Impact considering it's a list of bad sequels.

Left out the weirdest part: that it features Marc Maron on guitar for some reason

Is this going to be a literature version of the Big Bang Theory so I can finally be one of the cool kids and complain about what the writers got wrong?

I love it. You can really taste the value.

Maybe it was disqualified for already having been New Cult Canon'd (http://www.avclub.com/artic… but yeah, one of my favorite movies ever. So bizarre and hilarious and occasionally beautiful and endlessly rewatchable with a room full of newbies and a 30 of Gennee Cream.

The most gimmicky style of music performance combined with the most over the top, trying-too-hard genre? What could go wrong?
