Well, that can also be explained by the months-long time-stop Rick put on the house. If there was enough time to repair the house, there was enough time to improve it as well.

Once You Vote In This Thread, Your Vote Will Count For The General Election, So No Need to Do Anything In November.

"One of the bigger things, though, is her use of race, particularly of black women."

Pick up Witcher 3. It'll give the Fallout 4 team time to patch most of the more egregious and game-breaking bugs.

Basically, this episode is satirizing something that happens fairly often in 70s-90s sitcoms, where an episode will open with the cast talking to a guest character. We've never seen the guest character before, but based on the context of their interaction, we can see that we're supposed to assume this character has…

If it was, it wouldn't be a pleasant memory, so there would be a much better chance of Sleepy Gary being real.

It works as a bait-and-switch from the "sitcom character who's introduced like they've always known the family" trope that this episode was satirizing. We get crazy cousin Steve, at first think it's one of those awkward character introductions, learn he's a parasite, and then immediately get hit with Mr.…

Wait- is the guy who loses his ear, or the guy who gets nutted with a bowling ball?

"You know what we call Nazis in Brooklyn?"
"I'm comfortable with calling myself a Nazi. You think I really care what anyone else calls me?"

The woman who gets pregnant by the asthmatic drug dealer appears to get a ring- there's a brief scene where he takes her by a jewelry store, points to a ring in the window, and she gets excited and jumps on top of him, knocking him down. So it seems like that was a proposal, though he could have just been saying "when…

Well, they're assisted by the fact that that's actually what this particular white guy did.

You know, if Oscar Isaac wants to just become pre-Scent of a Woman Al Pacino, that's fine by me.

The scene where she revealed she was 47 was even more so. Jesus, diabetes is a motherfucker.

*grabs shoe polish expectantly*

David Simon has been adamant that nobody is going to watch this, and I started to understand what he meant when there were three scenes in untranslated Spanish. I loved the heck out of it, though. But I do wonder if it's a mistake to make the tenants' lives so tangential to the main action for the first two…

Bruising is bleeding without the skin breaking. Romanov children used to bruise like crazy—one of the reason Rasputin got so much cachet in Nicholas II's household was that he was able to heal the hemophiliac crown prince's bruises supposedly by laying his hands on them.

Empire Strikes Back ends with Luke choosing to fall to his death rather than accept the truth about his father—the fact that he survives is immaterial, as he couldn't have known the Millenium Falcon would find him. He makes that decision to drop believing nothing is beneath him. And Han is frozen, and Leia captured,…

It doesn't seem like the decision is precedent-setting. The incumbent mayor refused to even vote to appeal the decision because the decision was so unlikely to get overturned, and one character mentions how even Reagan-appointed justices are refusing the appeal because the legal argument for the decision is so…

Looks like an interesting book. But I'm not gonna lie; I'm short on cash this month. If this is one of those books that started out as a website, I'd rather go to the website and read a few of the letters, decide whether I really want this book. Is this one of those books that started out as a website?

Uh— I don't know the significance of the last 2 paragraphs, but I will point out that Back to the Future II takes place immediately after Back to the Future as well- so you could argue that all 3 movies are really one giant movie. Maybe it's the exception that proves the rule (though personally I don't like 3 very…
