The new AV Club
So this is how it will be
Can't say I'm impressed

Same dance, different tune.

Well, boys, we got three engines out. We got more holes in us than a
horse trader's mule. The radio is gone and we're leaking fuel. And if we
was flying any lower why we'd need sleigh bells on this thing.

Yeah. I only ever played the first one way back when. It was fun for a bit but I'd eventually get bored and frustrated.

But it comes with a free Yorkshire pudding!

Overheard at lunch today:

I have every episode of the Venture Brothers on my phone in case of an emergency.

The downside is that if enough of us make incredibly terrible decisions on the international level…ugh. I prefer not to dwell in the doom and gloom. I strive for the zen master approach: https://www.youtube.com/wat… But as far as historical cycles go, I really do not like where 2016 is headed.

You can always go back if you change your mind and messenger still works. It takes a couple days to get over the urge to constantly check it, but it is sort of like smoking: If you can make it through three days, you're gold.

I deactivated my FB page a week ago. It has been lovely.

The AV Club turned into Colossal so gradually I hardly even noticed.

People do this when they are hiking. HIKING! You're in fucking nature and you have music blasting at a sub-transistor radio quality.

Does Danny McBride rank below Tim Robbins? I always thought Ebby Calvin had the most ridiculous delivery of all time.

One is a file format. The other is a peanut butter.

It is definitely worth revisiting. There are some meh episodes in the early seasons, and it is Trek so there are always going to be goofy episodes regardless. However, the overall arc of the characters, their growth, and their relationships with one another are the heart of the show. And there are a lot of solid…

Eh, BritRail had some decent sandwiches. But they also had some awful ones as well. Anything involving prawns comes to mind. Best train station sandwich I ever had was in Luxembourg. Surprisingly good since I actually remember it.

Was feeling a bit depressed last week so dove into Deep Space Nine to visit with some old friends. Started in season 4 with the Garak/Dominion two-parter. Couldn't stop watching. Stuck to my favorite episodes and the ones heavily related to the Dominion War. Went all the way through season 7 and the finale which left…

It just dawned on me as I was re-watching Vortex. How could Odo possibly get knocked unconscious?
