    "When I grow up, I want to be able to sexually assault 40+ women and face no consequences!"
    "Well you better start saving now, it's very expensive."

    My point is that it's a largely empty threat trotted out every election to explain why we shouldn't vote for progressives. Chances are pretty decent none of them retire or die in the next 4 years, making this a pointless argument. Unless, of course, all nine justices were to fall victim to nine separate misfortunes

    But isn't that some really fatalist thinking? I mean, it's essentially saying "Bernie can't accomplish all these great things, so let's elect someone who won't even try in the first place."

    Ah, the Supreme Court. The "LA Needs a Football Team!" threat of presidential races…

    Hear hear (or here here or which ever is the correct one). When politics becomes more an entertaining spectacle than a meaningful discussion (which is a point we passed a long, long time ago), then it only makes sense that an entertainment-focused website would turn its gaze to examining the spectacle. More of this,

    Oh God, no comments yet. Think, Woz, think — this is a rare opportunity! Now's the chance to display your sharp wit and propensity for timely commentary.

    I'll be damned, that makes sense, I guess. I was just too wrapped up in the plot to get it, so I was sitting there legit thinking "Woah, guys! Don't waste all your energy! You've got a bunch of mutant aliens to fight! This is not a smart use of your time!"

    The score from Escape From New York?

    So I finally corrected one of my most inexcusable pop-culture blind spots and watched They Live for the first time this weekend. While it's the all-around solidly entertaining movie folks have made it out to be, one scene stood out to me as the most gratuitously unnecessary and just straight-up nonsensical fight

    I generally like Huebel and maybe it made more sense tonally in context or something, but I can't believe no one's commented on the line "I don’t know if you remember the Bee Gees."

    This dress made of the skin of young women will take a little starch outta that collar!

    Is there any organization that has done more to turn people off to the ideas it champions than PETA? At least since Lyndon Larauche endorsed the most duck-filled pond in the state.

    And they don't even have nearly that many members to boot! Hell, I'm pretty certain my One Million Snarky AV Club Commenters march will have them beat by several hundred…

    This is like asking which of my children I hate more! And the answer is always the same: the short one.

    I'm pretty sure Doug Judy referred to the star of Speed 2 as "Sandy B," which is way better than using her full name.

    It's water and leaves! Water and leaves!

    I think @avclub-4a51fda79bbd54b4e7327dd6559b6c4d:disqus is the greatest, but my dad says he doesn't work hard enough on defense.

    Exactly. It's like, "hey Macklemore, you're a millionaire music superstar. You could directly do all sorts of stuff for racial equality that would actually have an impact, like hiring Black producers, musicians, technicians, etc., helping out struggling Black artists, promote Black-owned businesses.
