"old science show that's been left out in the sun" … excellent

Yeah, wish fulfillment is a fair criticism of that scene. They could have humanized Alan in more realistic ways, for sure, maybe across multiple episodes, and not a single scene.

WE ARE DE-

When I was in Tokyo last week, I was walking around a neighborhood that had a huge, eight floor Tower Records (I thought they went out of business, but maybe their international locations operate differently). There was a van with the Daft Punk album art on it blasting "Lucky" that drove by every few minutes. This was…

From one professional to another, if you're trying to scare me, pick a better spot. From this position, the feces won't kill me.

Yeah, exactly. I probably would have done something similar if I had been left to my own devices.

Fair enough. Maybe I'm not remembering it accurately (I was, uh, stoned). Still, as a fellow "good kid" who got into weed pretty late in adolescence, it seemed faithful to what I remember  when I first got high (again, not necessarily trustworthy).

I would move Chokin' and Tokin' up about 18 spots. The depiction of the good kid getting stoned is just great, and the brief period near the end where it seems like Lindsay and Millie are going to be friends like old times again is among the most painfully poignant scenes on a show that specialized in them. And, as…

I like the idea of a weekly embarrassing adolescent story thread. Just so that there's some kind of theme, I'm compelled to think of a hugely embarrassing shorts-related story, but I can't think of one. My girlfriend would surely contend that the fact that I'm 26 and still wear cargo shorts from high school qualifies.

Hey Neckbeard, wanna smoke a smooth Marlboro? All the cool philatelists are doing it.

JFK is nobody's friend. If JFK were an ice cream flavor, he'd be pralines, and dick.

An inventogorizer. One who writes inventogories.

Now you got cancerAIDS, ya dummy!

Not in theaters, but in non-shitty CGI films, I finally saw Wreck-It Ralph this weekend. I loved every minute of it. This is the first time in a while in which I've scanned the reviews on metacritic and actually got mad reading the snippets that gave it 50/100 or less. "It's a lovely pretext for dazzling visuals, yet…

"Amanda Bynes" is actually Lindsay Lohan's birth name

"I can see that my theory of quantum furiosity will never be appreciated by the likes of you. Oh, if only I had never left the kind confines of the academy!"

Ugh, like I needed another reminder that it's grocery store season. I've been meaning to tone up, but it's like every time I try to do some laps in the pool a moose invades.

"It is plain, then, that the most perfect political community must be amongst those who are in the middle ranks, and those states are best instituted wherein these are a larger and more respectable part, if possible, than both the other; or, if that cannot be, then at the very least fuck Rhett Reese."

I'm afraid I'm going to have to give this my lowest rating ever: seven thumbs up.
