"NBC would kill for a scandal like that to boost ratings."
I'd say not to give them any ideas, but in all honesty they'd probably manage to fuck it up if they tried.

There are these things called "browsers", and it is possible to use more than one at a time.

That plus at the end of the C can be monumental.

I think it needs more pontificating on how MLP: FiM is a Randian parable before it can qualify as "fedora neckbeard".

I lost my ability to take the Offspring seriously once I realized their lead singer was basically Weird Al without a sense of humor.

Eh. I liked the latter, not so much the former. I mostly enjoyed Spamalot on the whole but I feel like too much of that special Python-ness was lost in the attempt to make a successful musical. I'd have higher hopes for The Princess Bride as a musical given that the tone suits the medium better.

Her arc is a lot more fleshed out in the graphic novels, yeah. It's one of the more discouraging bits about the movie, really. In the last few volumes it goes into stuff about commitment and identity, but naturally by that point in the movie they don't have any screentime left for it.
The alternate ending to the movie…

The only thing I can think of is sneaking my parents' issues of Q and SPIN into my room and under my bed. Which it later turned out they were totally cool with.

I'd seen that around but never really heard much about it. I'll definitely check it out now.

Glad to finally find someone else who's read "I Am the Messenger". Criminally overlooked book, although as you said, the ending feels like a bit too forceful a shove into sentimentality.

That's why there is a place no space ships go.

Quick cash-grab TV shows for washed-up internet phenomena: they're not just for Twitter feeds any more.

I think it's fitting that Lou Reed died not doing anything you expected him to do.

The difference is, though, that Orson Scott Card actually donates money to homophobic organizations. I can certainly see why people wouldn't want to put money into his pocket in that case.

As someone who has only ever seen the Director's Cut, I can confirm wholeheartedly that the "Head Over Heels" sequence is in there in its entirety.

There's a joke about Canadians in there somewhere.

This is the first time I've heard of it, and judging by the first few pages it feels like a mildly ham-fisted attempt to piggyback off the Garfield Minus Garfield gimmick.

Hanging out with Guy Fieri always seemed more like something you'd pay to avoid.

Oh hey, so is mine! It wasn't working until I saw your post, though. Weird.

I'd just like to point out that the band Scott and Kim played in together in high school was actually called Sonic and Knuckles; Sex Bob-omb didn't originate until later.
