You don't have to rub it in, Dumbledore.

"Wayne Night" FTW
There's a definite 90's revival going on, but so far, it's all like Baby Got Back and shit. It's not Archers of Loaf.
I knew he'd get around to covering Sebadoh one of these days.
He should've switched to Special Drink.
You know, every time people have the MPDG conversation, someone always speaks up with something to the effect of "well, Clementine is not really an MPDG" or "they acknowledge it in the movie, so it doesn't count" or some shit like that.
Yeah, but you know what I mean. Suddenly I'm seeing all these Comedy Central promos for shows that have actually been on before, and it's like "What? Is this 2008?"
Wallace FTW
I've long maintained that David Wallace was one of the most underrated characters on this show, and this episode bore that theory out in ways I never dreamed of.
This is so weird
Between this and Important Things, it's almost like non-TDS/Colbert/South Park Comedy Central shows ever actually come back after one season! Who woulda thunk it?
Years ago I would've said Charles Bronson in anything
But now, Walter White, totally. The idea of going from ineffectual wage slave to blowing up buildings overnight makes me feel like maybe getting a terminal disease later in life won't be so bad.
Another thing worth pointing out is that it wasn't like Jay Reatard was that famous. If you're doing enough coke to die from it, you need to be like, 70s Elton John levels of success.

In the realm of borderline-pathological recluses known for creating beloved young anti-hero characters, Watterson's right up there.
As much as I'm against those stickers on principle, I had to give some props to the one I saw recently, which had him pissing on the word "Everybody."
No love for
Husker Du's covers of Sunshine Superman, Love is All Around and Eight Miles High? Big Black's versions of He's a Whore and The Model? Futureheads doing Hounds of Love? Local H doing Toxic? I can think of a few more but this comment is getting annoying.
No one's gonna take the bait? Okay, then…
ROCK FLAG AND EAGLE
Are we kidding ourselves? Worst of all time is INDISPUTABLY this: http://tinyurl.com/2errvf
Re: Sloan
Oh yeah, I mean, I know it's lame, just like I know the same crap is lame when some of my other favorite artists (Elvis Costello and the Smiths/Moz) do it too. That's why I acknowledged that the best way to make some $$$ would be for that fucker to make a new GOD DAMN ALBUM. I mean, shit. I don't care if it's XTC, or…
