The Big Dik Theory!

Okay, I gotcha, but don't you think that the "blandness" has a lot to do with the fact that it is based on comics (especially golden age and earlier) and there are precious little characters in that source material that are not white guys?

In Firefox (and OSX) it's cmd+U.

I think Phantom Limb even name-checked the brand in that episode (Foustoff? Fustof? What the hell is it?).

Yeeaah… the Bechedel test is a cool thing and whatever, but it's not some measure of greatness.

The Coolest is "comic-book Gothic", to me, and I'd say that's synonymous with MCR.

I loved that Killinger gave her a lolly after he healed her :3

It does have a really wide variety of different forms of sexuality (even
pretty dark stuff i.e. pedophilia), gender, sexual preference, family
unit, ethnicity, and so forth.

Oh come on. Fighters is just awful and Coolest sounds like a My Chemical Romance rap song.

Well now that you edited your post (which used to say that you consider him an asshole) I'm agreeing with you a little bit. I think he manages OK. It's pretty hard to be in any way "political" in music without being preachy or cheesy or both.

If you think that, you're not actually with me.

Aw, crap, I actually meant his second one. The one with "Superstar" on it.

There's always one punctilious vexer who just has to superciliously impinge, am I right?

From the first two words it's apparent that this is, indeed, a review of a Decemberists record.

I remain skeptical. Have you listened to Food & Liquor lately? Sounds like garbage.

Guess so. I'm aware of his standup and I guess Ride-Along exists if you say it does. Wouldn't call that "supernova" but whatevs.

Get a room, you two.

Yeah, I was wondering about "his career [going] supernova". When did that happen?

DICK POOP!

This time we hear exactly what he whispers: "You're tearing me apart in Japan, Lisa."
