I will upstage you with my laser pointer.

Ditto. Very pleased at the prominent and easy placement.

And Bill Maher is an idiot…so…I'm going to bed.

Which is a shame, because "momentum" should properly be used as shorthand for "TWO THINGS JUST HAPPENED!"

"No, no…we syndicate…comic strips."

GODDAMMIT MICHAEL TURNER YOU HAVE RUINED MY FANTASY FOOTBALL TEAM THREE TIMES AND NOW YOU'RE RUINING THE AV CLUB, JUST GO AWAY

I feel compelled to reply to you for username synergy alone. I'll just add that can the ticker please die already? It's a remnant of a pre-internet, pre-smartphone era that has run its course. Occasional updates on news items or scores of games in progress are fine. Constant noise on the bottom of the screen…

That's nothing new…the 2000 Florida electoral dumpster fire was parodied on South Park within six days.

Enormous wang..

Enormous wang.

This week: Marilyn and the team try to crack the case of ''how to get the
fox, chicken, and grain across the river in a boat that only holds one
thing.''

I don't think blanket advice such as 'the best age to meet your spouse' applies to any interesting cross-section of people.

With that avatar, do you just wait around all day for posts that you're not sure are serious?

Yeah I tend to agree - and the Walt thing can be answered, if unsatisfyingly, by looking at how quickly the actor playing him grew in a short period of time, making him an unsuitable choice to be at the center of a mystery that jumps back and forth in time over six years of shooting.

Tebow did have everyone buzzing about his 'reinvented' throwing motion and 'NFL-ready' footwork after his pro day. Bottom line, if what a guy does in shorts with no defenders around is more influential in your decision than what he actually does in live play, then you are an idiot who should not have an NFL…

Your ideas intrigue me, and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

That's really interesting actually, thanks for posting. I went to high school with Jason Miller, he and my brother were good friends. Sorta followed his career at a distance ever since, we always knew the guy was crazy talented. But apparently the Great White covers gave way to goth industrial and children's voice…

I'm actually listening to the podcast right now for the first time (the aliens one), and yeah, it's pretty good.

Very well said. Probably why I enjoyed LOST more than the average viewer. I was amazed to learn thee was a huge backlash against the Nicky and Paolo episode, it barely registered as anything more than an enjoyable little side story when I was binge-watching.

Nah, Chu is way too cool with incest for that to be the case.
