I feel like there's a small difference here, right? He's not making it or selling it, he's just taking it across the Mississippi to give it right back to the Enos brothers who own it. Or is bootlegging just a really broad term that also encompasses smuggling? Is that archaic or something?

No, he accepts a bet to smuggle Coors. He doesn't do any bootlegging.

That's like my favorite line! Also when the tailor asks Cornelius if he can measure his inseem. "Nooo!"

Corrections:

That's probably why you haven't experienced brain freeze! It's no super power, it's just you eating weird!

Brain freeze is caused by contact with cold stuff on the roof of your mouth, so if you want to experience it, just put something super cold in your mouth and press it against the roof for a while. (To get rid of it, rub your tongue on the roof of your mouth to warm up.)

I'd bump Escape up to number 2. Disco apes!

I always thought so, yeah. By the fourth one they had Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, Bane…it was ridiculous.

Remove Venom and Sandman, and it's up there with the other two. But villain bloat was a standard problem with superhero sequels back then. Focus on one villain, people!

If you're going to go to this much effort, why nit just grind your own meat? You can do it in a food processor. It's great.

My OITNB problem is Vee's escape. She's shown to be an extremely capable, intelligent, ruthless woman throughout the season; she has people on the outside; and she had access to a pipeline of illegal goods. In other words, she had all the components she needed to make a good escape attempt. Smuggle in a cell phone,

That sounds about right. It comes to a screeching halt when they squeeze in a fight with the Falcon, the Affordable Avenger

I was so disappointed with the season finale of OITNB S2 that I never got back into it.
Weeds, I thought, had a Dexter trajectory….straight downhill, slow enough that I kept watching, but precipitous enough that I wonder why in hindsight

I really only know her for Orange is the New Black and Weeds, and for both of those I wish I had only seen the first season

I suspect this show will have an excellent first season, followed by a huge dropoff in season two and a continued decline, and you will stop watching before it ends

Yeah, it's not bad enough that he didn't get to do Wonder Woman, he also gets criticized for the movie he didn't make

I flipped through that issue (it was Secret Origins Annual #2), and I don't think it's the one I was thinking of. His therapist talks about imposter syndrome, but not about Barry being godlike. But I also flipped through the issue I thought it was (actually Flash v2 #24), and that's not it either. In my memory, Wally

That's basically how I play Hitman

If you think of the game as an RPG, then this is the classic argument of whether the point of the game is role playing, or minmaxing. People who enjoy the role play aspect of counselors trying to survive are naturally going to be turned off by players who ignore that aspect in favor of pure game mechanics.

it seems to me like you're the expert mark!
