What, John Richards is a douche? Oh, that makes me sad. KEXP's morning show via iPhone app is a staple of my morning commute, and I used a couple of his running-oriented podcasts during my training for the marathon last year. Admittedly, I don't know the first thing about the guy, personally, but he always seemed…

I came here to post this exact comment, but you beat me to it. There has never been a video game death as poignant for me as Floyd's.

The problem with movies like this is a sociological one, not a cinematic one. Obviously, American Sniper isn't a documentary, or presenting itself as such, but there is, I believe, a surprisingly large percentage of the moviegoing population who sees "Based on a true story" in the marketing for a film and walks in…

You win today's Internet.

SERIOUSLY HOLLYWOOD AT THIS POINT WHO DOES TATIANA MASLANY HAVE TO BLOW TO GET CAST? I mean, seriously - is she just super difficult to work with, maybe? Maybe Orphan Black is a snow job and she's not actually that good an actress?

I know it'll never happen, but one of my fondest wishes is that media outlets would stop reporting on things that happen on Twitter as if they actually matter. It's, like, "(Insert world development here) - let's see what the crazy guy on the street corner with the sandwich board on which is written a prophecy about…

Geico is the number one culprit when it comes to the whole "Internet content/advertisement" thing. I've seen so many ads from them recently that are just, like, "Here's a funny little skit, maybe featuring a celebrity! Oh, and Geico is a thing that exists." They should just go all in and launch their own sketch comedy…

The theme tune to this movie is America's greatest work. Suck it, "A Horse With No Name."

Abso-freaking-lutely.

In "The Doctor's Wife," Eleven also mentioned something about The Corsair changing genders.

Too late!

I ALREADY HANGED MYSELF WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME?

Part of my job, sadly.

It's a tough thing. I love science-fiction, but hate science-fiction fans.

ME THIS MORNING: Oh, surely no one's going to get upset about this particular bit of casting, given how Jimmy Olsen's always been kind of a goof and not, like, a sacred cow of the comic book world!

Oh, der. I completely forgot Spider-Man and X-Men, for some reason - curse my feeble, human brain. Still, I'd maintain that Blade set the stage for those films, too, much more than Superman did.

Donner's Superman was great, but there was such a long, bleak period for super hero movies between Superman II (which is the last one we could probably call good, at all) and Batman Begins (which I'd call the launch of the "modern" era in which super hero blockbusters are profitable and prominent - Burton's Batman…

Seems like he's got a bad connection. Don't hang up the line. Don't hang up, 'cause we're gonna be fine. He just needs to open his hands to his brothers; bad connections happening all over. Can't get a tone. America from the north to the south. What we need is to unite, break down the walls that connect my life to the…

Oh, man, I had a girlfriend who was an adherent of the kind of philosophy espoused in this book. It was great until things *didn't* always work out the way she wanted them to, at which point she would castigate herself and descend into self-loathing because, if she'd only been thinking the right way, her desire would…

Of course! This is civilization, not the Belgian Congo!
