Michael Richards just sounds totally insufferable.

Pynchon's popularity won't outlive the baby boomers.

Not nearly enough.

This song is as snore-inducing as it is ubiquitous.

Finally, an MJ article without the inyourendo.

In May 1994, he’d married Lisa Marie Presley, proving with absolute certainty that Elvis was indeed dead.

It's a great show, but there have been so many blog posts about the end of Mad Men everywhere I look, that I'm not sure I'm going to get weepy when its over.

Hoosiers is the best movie ever made about basketball, but I see your point.

Definitely read Ubik if you haven't already. His best, IMO. The Man in the High Castle and A Maze of Death are also a couple of my faves.

It's like burlap, but wittier.

Me too. At least, that last part.

Although I'm not offended by them, they do seem a bit out of place on the A.V. Club.
(The photo at the top is quite striking. I don't know who Mandee Johnson is, but it's an excellent shot.)
