I listened to the first seven or eight episodes again, and the second time around it seemed possible that Jay felt cornered (because the police came to him and Jen first; they weren't asking about Adnan at that point), so he panicked and made up a framing story as a desperate attempt to escape being charged for murder.

I remember Koenig mentioning in one episode that she has "theories" about what else might have happened that day, but that she'd wait until a later episode to lay them out. Considering next week is the last episode, it seems that she'll probably discuss them next week.

Hollywood has graduated from metaphorically destroying franchise originators to actually obliterating them from the timeline. Progress?

It's so dense. There's so much going on on every trail.

Since my parents had DirectTV, I had no idea G4 existed until they took over and destroyed TechTV like some kind of Mountain Dew filled tumor. It's just television, but I think I'm going to take that particular bitterness to the grave.

To be fair, that kid sounds pretty young, and considering the extent to which English as a written language doesn't have its shit together, I'd give our education system a pass on this one.

As an offensive lineman, did Anthony Castonzo practice that Dhalsim dance knowing full well how unlikely it was he'd ever score a touchdown in his career? If so, then I think he does deserve some kind of player of the year award.

After seeing the music video for Oneotrix Point Never's "Still Life (Betamale)", I'm sort of terrified of ever seeing anything scored to Lopatin's music ever again—which is probably the correct attitude to have for a Blade Runner sequel.

I've been digging this album so far, especially the track "Violence".

This will make me sound like a corporate shill, but: Google Play Music's subscription service has the new album and his entire catalogue. I've been really impressed overall by their catalog of electronic and underground musicians.

In the reboot of the reboot, the forest is actually a misunderstood anti-hero.

Could I get this guy to calculate how many rabbits it would take to pull a sled at high speeds across bare earth?

But 2001 waves a wand when it needs to: For example, putting crew members into suspended animation and transmitting intellectual development through contact with a metallic surface.

Most automated PA systems (on subways, rail stations, etc.) also use female voices. Though I've never researched it, I've always assumed soft female voices are used because they are preferable to both sexes (as a result of culturally ingrained gender roles); that is, the female voice can be sexually attractive for men…

"…you can't have sex with it."

You can't see it, but I'm shrugging so hard right now.

Mein Fuhrer, I can balk.

I wouldn't want to dispel the feminine mystique surrounding it.
