I'd forgotten where I'd seen Snoopy's adventures as a sled dog.  I assumed it was a tangent based on some other story, never expected there was a whole special based on it.

I always find the way Pierrot moves to be really effective, an a terrifying sort of way.  He's kind of like a rocket-powered beach ball that's only loosely affected by the laws of physics, bouncing off of every conceivable surface and spraying death and destruction in all directions.  It really is sort of like a very…

What happened to Mr. Toad!?  I was just at Disneyland last week and we didn't make it over there, but I had no idea it was gone. 

Tower of Terror is over at California Adventures.  And I have no idea what "Speed" is.

1) Pirates of the Caribbean
2) Space Mountain
3) The Matterhorn
4) Indiana Jones
5) Thunder Mountain

I want that prize.  I don't want to earn it, but I want it on my shelf.

Is it incest *when* Franco gropes himself, then?  Or, when he gropes anyone, since all is Franco?

I think it's because TV shows tend to stick around for a little while, and it's harder to be harsher on something if it's a weekly presence.  The bile has to be spread around, so everything just settles into mediocrity.

I can hardly talk about Rick Santorum without using the word "froth."

Got to agree with @avclub-64f027640f63616a277e92096313264f:disqus .  If you're bouncing between "it was totally consensual and non-sexual" (which means you've done nothing wrong) and "she's totally acting sexually provocative at me" (which implies you've done something wrong but you don't think it's your fault), it…

A quick look on wikipedia suggests that several people have actually supported Linda's version of events, and that she passed a lie detector test while making many disturbing allegations.

Rock constantly needs saving. It's the damsel in distress of pop music, and that's kind of sad.

Man, I love rock n' roll, but I'm getting kind of tired of it needing to be saved all the damn time.

"I find it would be a bit mealy mouthed of me to subscribe to the fire
breathing views of disenfranchised Northerners when many of Thatcher's
policies benefited my family and people like us…"

Anti-government rhetoric is almost beautifully circular.  As long as there is any government involvement in any field, you can plausibly (?) maintain that that level of involvement is responsible for all of the problems in that field.  Somehow, this works especially well when you run the government and your policy has…

That is really cool.

"Scrooge" in particular doesn't suggest Judaism to me.  If anything, it sounds Scottish.  So, I suppose it could still be a stereotype of sorts.

Well, he still has things he needs to do, you see.  He needs to find Julia and he needs to fight vicious, something he expects will probably lead to his death.  If he dies some other way (burning up in a spaceship as he falls to Earth), there's not much he can do about it, so he's resigned to it.  When it comes to…

One could say, however, that he's happy-go-lucky in spite of all that.  It's as though, having accepted the inevitability of his own death, it doesn't hold any foreboding for him the way it does for other people. 

Well, I can say one thing with a certain level of confidence: this will be a better final album for the band than Stars and Stripes Volume 1.
