    whataworkout: Yes, this site's demographic is generally hipster douchebags, especially those who think that if something took place before they were born, it can't be important. There are a few pleasant exceptions, of course.

    So by lumping in the not-sures (in 2010, mind you) with the nonbelievers in a single California poll, you get the result you wanted in the first place?

    A taste bus? New trend. Food trucks are out. Gourmet food-truck fare meets day trippin'.

    James Blish was "fourth rate"? Good Lord, you ARE a fucking idiot. May your taste bus be moved to your rectum.

    This was supposed to be a great interview?
    It's more of a self-centered, derisory rant delivered by a Jewish-American Princess who can't distinguish between the concepts of a "birther" and a "Tea Party supporter", interspersed with questions and proctosculation from a hipster asshole who can't quite solve that one

    Allan Sherman, anyone?
    I guess none of you hipster dipshits recall anything that happened before 1965.

    He didn't just steal the term from Blish; that definition is almost word-for-word identical to Blish's. Damon Knight attributed it when he used it. There's no reason Ebert shouldn't.

    Roger Ebert is an asshole for not crediting James Blish with the term "idiot plot". Then again, his mouth looks a lot like an asshole these days, so perhaps that's his Dante-esque penance for being an overpraised reviewer and a plagiarist.

    A better and shorter reply:
    Look, you drunken Mick bag of dried-out cunts, I could fuck a chicken to death on stage and it'd still be better than anything you've ever done.

    Wot, no "Electrician & Adventurer"?
    Bill from House II is awesome! Whether your issue is faulty wiring or an alternate universe in your living room, he has the tools and the know-how to get your house back in order.

    The Town Musicians of Bremen would be hard to adapt, although Howard Waldrop found an interesting way.

    So, how many of those "jokes" relied on a smug assertion of a shared shibboleth, and how many were actually funny? Here's a hint, hipster half-witts: If the whole point of your comment was, "Gee, guys, I hate Cheney too!", then you're as daring and innovative as any conformist you pretend to hate.

    BREAKING: GOP Calls For Defunding Of HBO

    Spanish proverb
    "God said to Man: 'Take what you want…and pay for it.'"

    Wouldn't it be "Yob tyovu mat" — i.e., "Fuck your mother"?

    You bought into some first-rate bullshit, Tobias
    I understand you can't rid yourself of the idea that women aren't supposed to enjoy sex, but not everyone has that hangup.

    Time to punch that Like button
    as hard as you can

    Tim Olyphant's character would have been the top salesman, but I doubt they can afford that kind of actor.

    It might be Baldwin, but I can confirm from personal experience that Ray Liotta is a fucking jerk, and he was in that movie as well.

    Everything, if you care about anything other than the gender content of a movie.
