They had me at Alfred Molina in that lab coat with the three hands.

Is it odd that, while I liked Drive more, I've found myself rewatching this film more often? I just find it so damned fascinating and compelling, even as I actively dislike several parts of it.

Fuck this year so far. Seriously. I do not mean this to sound selfish (although it ultimately kind of is), but I feel like I'm finally at that age where I start losing more pop culture icons who mean something to me than gaining them.

He means this cartoon cover of the original US version of the album, not the song. https://everyrecordtellsast…

A few random thoughts on this record:

I don't know how to express it succinctly, I'm no writer…he made it okay to be myself. He also made it okay to not be myself, i.e. to branch out and explore different parts of my personality while still remaining true to the core of who I was. It's not an original sentiment but I never would've made it through my…

Hey, I liked Luke.

This can't be real. I've decided it's not real. Nope. Like Elvis, he's simply gone home.

Been catching up on the Star Wars: The Clone Wars cartoon (the CG one, not the Genndy Tartakovsky ones which I'd previously seen and loved). I'd heard it was pretty great, and it is. Really brings life to the prequels, actually.

Dude. This has to be a parody.

I wonder how many plumbers Mr. Welliver actually knows. My brother's an HVAC tech and he loves talking about installing vents, compressors, all that shit. And he's not alone. There are many boring people who'll talk your ear off about their job if they love it, no matter what the field.

I'll shove that sandwich up your ass and turn you into a lunchbox.

As far as I know, the DC is the only one available in Blu. I've had to hold on to my original DVD for years.

I've never had a bot reply to me before. What do I do? Wait, I took a little Spambotese in college, let's see here…

Is your friend Linda Richman?

AWNESTLY BRO, I'D RATHAH GO AND SEE THA FAWCE AWAKENS ONE MOAH TIME, THAT MOVIE WAS FAHKIN WICKED. FAHKIN ALIENS AND QUEEAH GOLD ROBAWTS AND SHIT.

I'd take the Carpenters, if only to drive my S.O. absolutely nuts. She haaaates them.
I once got her to admit that the guitar solo in "Goodbye To Love" was actually pretty good; I really thought she was going to have a stroke from the cognitive dissonance. Pretty sure something in her broke that day.

Two kinds of people in the world: those who think Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie of all time, and Nazis. You don't wanna be a Nazi, do you?

Not sure why it has to be one or the other (except for the premise of this article, of course), but as much as I love the J5 version, I have to go with Springsteen. It's sheer joy and you can hear the good time they're all having, as befits the song. With the Jackson 5 version, it's all too easy to imagine them doing…

Wait a minute. Bobby Darin's earlier hits may have been "un-funky"—whatever that means—but he was never square, even as a teen idol. He always invested his material with real soul. In any case, the more recognition Commitment gets, the better. It's aged more gracefully than a lot of other "hippie" albums from that…
