I read "my date with the president's daughter" and the song came right back instantly.

I love that one item from one level of SMB3 got so much love in Mario Maker

Cannot wait for Mario Maker. I hope it brings more people to the Wii U! There are some genuinely great games on the system already.

Doug is no longer a nicktoon right? wasn't he sold to Disney?

I honestly don't think this idea is 100% terrible.

Great Meh, Internet.

I saw Grindhouse at the cheapseats/2nd run theatre the summer after it was released - I was working on-campus for the summer and had an 18 yr old from Japan as my roommate. It was maybe his 2nd week in the US - seeing it with him is what made it a great experience. He had such visceral reactions to both the gore in…

I didn't like it after they brought it back with the refined style either. I was (and still am) drawn to the ugly-cool aesthetic of the old Rugrats cartoons. Klasky/Csupo did some cool work back then (Simpson shorts on Tracy Ulman or Duckman).

Are you playing the 3DS remakes? they are actually pretty great upgrades to already great games.

**Splatoon** still has a huge grip on me and my gametime. While I've purchased only a few games this summer - I've barely played them in my efforts to hit the elusive A rank in ranked mode (I know it goes A+/S/S+ from there, but I need realistic goals).

The Pikmin short films they released awhile back were fun and well done.

My wife is prone to saying "Bitch, it is 5:30" when my alarm goes off early in the morning (Happy Endings).

The LOST finale did work! …but really though, I liked it.

The photos of this are quite entertaining. I wonder how long one can live with all natural light being filtered through blue tarps.

"die. die. die. ….. i can't"

On the short-lived WB show Grosse Pointe - Sarah Michelle Gellar did a guest spot where she wanted to kiss a female character on the show - for the emmy noms. I remember that show being kind of funny - but it's been awhile.

Bone by Jeff Smith - A cute story that unfolds into an epic adventure. Super accessible and self-contained. One of my favorite reads.

Sleater-Kinney, Chvrches, Future Islands, The New Pornographers, RTJ, Chance the Rapper and Jamie XX - worth every second of the rain, heat, mud and carpet squares - but damn am I tired.
