… I do.

There is no god but Groot.

Holy shit, I never really recognized that Atlas Shrugged is essentially Lysistrata, except instead of a nation's women withholding sex to stop a war, it's a nation's wealthy white guys withholding their ideas to stop … um … solidarity?

Man do I wish I'd gotten here before the spambot comments were deleted. Now it's like watching someone arguing with Chewbacca or Groot.

No, it's just constant profanity. They're genetically unable to feel joy.

It's insane, these taint guys.

One thing I noticed was at the end, when everyone was describing their parts, no one took responsibility for the stick-eyed doll. For a minute, I thought they were going to close with a "I thought YOU did that" moment.

"My God, what's the deal with ANYTHING??"

Ani DiFranco remains at large.

Ideas are people, my friend!

Your gimmick is wrong - Thomas Kinkade pissed on everything literally, not figuratively.

As long as he stays out of Alternate Earth. THERE he's Public Enemy #1.

So Barry's just straight-up murdering his enemies this season, huh? I mean, that's fine, but it's kind of a big turn to go unremarked upon.

They did say she was gone, rather than on that planet, so I suppose that's a possibility. Still, it was long enough for deep-seated trauma to set in - rather than just the normal jumpiness that'd come with any scary experience - so I think it was probably the same timetable.

So if Simmons was on that planet for months, as they said, what did she eat? Didn't anybody wonder that? I know they don't want to grill her right now, but "Hey, how didn't you starve to death" doesn't seem unreasonable.

With you up until the argument that Laurel Lance has become a stronger character. Although I guess I can SEE how someone could make that argument now, so … hesitant agreement?

I guess I'm assuming that there's more than one monolith (which is dumb - I mean, it's right there in the name!). Seems like a helluva thing to say "let's never speak of this again" about. Okay, S1 Agents of SHIELD would've done it, but the show's more better now.

I'm hoping this is just the beginning of the alien planet business, like Earth 2 was handled on Fringe. They know it's there, they know they know nothing about it, and they want to find out more.

Hell, they'd been professional colleagues for years without love interest even entering the picture until they were thrust into repeated intense situations. Nobody's going Full Boyle here.

In the good future, the merging cinematic universes will give us Marvel-written heroes and non-MCU-written villains. In the future we're likely to get, we'll have non-MCU-written heroes and Marvel-written villains.
