I'm sad that Brick didn't make the cut…

God I hated that usurious bastard Tom Nook.

Chrono Trigger. I will marry someone of either sex on the spot if they somehow bring it up independently in conversation. Unfortunately, 1990s 16-bit JRPGs don't come up in conversation in the hospital much.

Excellent piece Kevin. Made me remember I had my Knives Chau moment at Tower Records Stonestown with Wilco's YHF wherein the clerk told me about this website Pitchfork which led to years (and perhaps a lifetime) of actually good music.

Really the only one is when people say they don't like "the government." Mostly because I find it stunningly myopic (it's fine to disagree with policies, expenditures, or interventions, but really, you don't like roads?) and starting with that opening line makes it nearly impossible to engage in real productive…

I'll concur with this statement. I'm similarly very sensitive, but I just watched all of the second season over the last week and probably laughed out loud more than the whole last season of Parks and Rec (and I love P&R).

I'd love to separate the music of the Grateful Dead from the whole Deadhead movement / Jerry hagiography.

To be fair, I did stab myself in the head accidentally and got sewn back up at St. Lukes.

"a reference to a “hospital on Guerrero Street” that doesn’t actually exist"

Neil's association with NPH is so entrenched in my mind that I have trouble ordering Neutral Protamine Hagedorn insulin for diabetics in the hospital without smiling.

The banter at the 17 minute mark is both hilarious and heartbreaking…

As a guy who stubbornly kept Pestano on his fantasy team all year waiting in vain for Chris Perez to explode, I loved the reference.

Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs. Don't know why I ended up watching it, but god damn, hilarious film.

So, I just started my Psych rotation and working with real schizophrenics make me look at River in a whole new light.  When I first watched the show, I thought that her acting was a little over the top, but now I'm really impressed about how accurately Glau plays disorganized schizophrenia.  I'm excited to see the…

Yeah, my partner has been commenting about Robin's awful outfits for about a season now.  They have been remarkably bad.
