Also, I think if we were going to have this series take the True Detective split-timeline road, we would have seen another scene in that timeline by now.

"Are you gonna come?"
"I already did. Thirty-five minutes ago."

Seriously, "Gnardians"? Come on. Even Guardians of the Phallaxy is better.

The inevitable Guardians Of The Galaxy porn parody has arrived, in what we hope is simply Phase One of a shared universe that will include Iron Dong, XXX-Men, and Invaders: Swallowfire.

Even your writeup of this episode explains most of the problems I have with this show. "It's so cool how openminded these women are about sex, until presented with an actual kink! Then it's all judgment and slut-shaming before getting back to conspicuous consumption!"

I was actually thinking "So, you mean, it is like It's Always Sunny."

It's just all these people making exclamations of surprise and closing doors!

I think Rittenhouse is no longer being produced.

Was Teti upset that he didn't get to write the Price Is Right newswire?

Reason was founded by the Koch family; its "libertarianism" has more to do with advancing their agenda. Of course, sometimes that leads to fun like a history of pro-apartheid articles and a special issue dedicated to Holocaust denial:

I lost it at "Mind if I take the underwear out of my crack?"

BUSINESSES SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO REFUSE SERVICES TO PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY WERE BORN. Is that just me? Christ.

Me too. "Gratuitous" is a good way to describe it. It just seemed like they wanted to throw in a moment that made dog owners cry. The real story of that episode was how Seymour's presence affected Fry and Bender's relationship.

Twilight may be thinking of Ben Carson. I don't think Alan Keyes has been particularly visible since his tantrums over Barack Obama being elected.

You don't remember when the free market ended racial discrimination in the south?

Have they raised more money than Darren Wilson yet?

Even though it came out more than a decade later, I'll always associate "nature's pocket" with Broad City.

I think you're right (I've been showing some friends The Shield for the first time, and we just recently got to these episodes). There are a lot of times the "Previously on" sounds like Vic or Aceveda, normally.

Duck ruined his own life— from the minute SC hired him he schemed to push Don out. And Don didn't make him an alcoholic.

"I heard he drank an entire bottle of Canadian Club, banged his secretary on his desk, then went out and NAILED the Kodak pitch!"
"TO DON DRAPER!"
