Guys, just saying, I popped over to Gizmodo today and read a couple items and the comment system didn't look *that* horrible. Maybe Kinja won't be so bad?

Agreed, I'm down to try. All the cool kids may scatter to the four winds, but this has been my go-to spot for pop culture snark for at least 10 years so I dunno where else to go anyway. [sobs quietly to self]
I'm in the same boat as you (no Disqus account) but I believe those instructions will be included on Weds as well.
If you're there, I'll be there.
Came here to say the exact same thing. I downloaded it the day it came out and love it; it has everything that was (is still) great about KoL but is much faster to move around/explore with no limits on the number of turns you can have in a "day".
Speaking of Kinja, where's our fucking update on how to register in Disqus/transfer to Kinja/stop the impending loss of all we hold dear?
It's sad/frightening to think that if (when?) he has a massive coronary in his sleep due to being an overweight slug with pre-diabetes, his army of supporters will think he was murdered and call for a revolution against the "deep state".
Agreed, it makes me feel (slightly) better to think that either Mattis or Kelly will always be in the country to swat his hand away from "the button". Unfortunately I think that results in a "Seven Days In May" type scenario, but better that than nuclear holocaust, I always say.
I did, but then I enjoyed every episode regardless of tone, for reasons I noted in a reply above.
I'ma go out on a limb here and say that all 5 seasons are excellent TV. Sometimes funny, sometimes dramatic/cringeworthy/sad…but always top-notch production, acting, editing, music, everything. I'd also hazard a guess that he intended it that way from the beginning, not just as a vehicle for cheap sitcom gags.
What? Those guys are pretty good. "Berlin Got Blurry" is a solid jam.
Sooo, can I grab that Disqus account now and keep my comment history, etc? That's not as critical to me as to a Dikachu-type commenter, but it would be nice.
Upvoted for excellent username/avatar synchrony.
Seconded, same problem here.
Picking a random thread here to say: holy shit I love you guys so much with the crazy comments and the laffs and whatnot.
Quick plug for Mehr's *excellent* book Trouble Boys. Even if you have only a passing interest in the Mats (and who doesn't?), it's more than worth the long-ish read. Be warned: It's ultimately a very sad story, on multiple levels.
I should probably just Go then.
You teed that one up nice and high, congrats.
I played it for my daughter on her last day of middle school…she was suitably impressed and promised to keep it a secret from mom.
I can double-confirm this, having worked for 5 years at a Disney Store (also in college, don't judge). We received a pamphlet titled "The Disney Store Look" and it included directives such as: no facial hair for men, women must wear nylons, all tennis shoes must be kept bright white with polish and any "afro or…
