I mostly agree although I do think Nickelback crossed into true heinousness once he started yelling about how he likes my pants around my feet and the white stains on my dress. That was probably the grossest song I've ever heard on the radio*.

Fair enough, the first thing I read used "convicted" but you're right that's not quite correct. That's what I get for trusting the Boston Herald. But he also admits hitting her in one of the tapes, and his public stance is 'it was more of a slap, not a punch' - he pretty indisputably committed domestic violence.…

Mel Gibson was convicted of domestic battery. He literally is a celebrity who "actually beat their wives or girlfriends". Why the media has typically fixated on his anti-Semitic and racist words to the extent of minimizing or even admitting his violence (as this very article does) is beyond me, but he it's all there…

Jared Leto's Joker is coming back to burn the fucking house down, but you will blow him first.

For you or anyone else who has fond memories of Fangoria, Agony Booth contributor Ed Harris* has a blog where he revisits old issues (among other things).

The series ends up giving an interesting overview of the evolution of horror film in general over the past few decades.

I spent my pop culture weekend learning that Dom King - "E Buzz Miller" - and Harriet Peters - "Opera Punk" - were an elaborate years-long catfish by the same person, and that whoever "Dom" actually is is very much alive despite getting a touching obituary in these very pages last year. So… that happened.

He does keep his stick on the ice…

For what it's worth, I had a similar reaction when I read As I Lay Dying in high school, but on a whim I cracked it again recently (north of the big 3-0) and it was surprisingly readable.

No, Advil is the same stuff as Motrin - ibuprofin. Unfortunately, some of us have to use other anti-inflammatories (thanks, ulcerative colitis) that can't be used in conjunction with NSAIDS (e.g., ibuprofen), so we're stuck with Tylenol (acetaminophen). I end up having to weigh each time, "Is getting rid of this…

I can attest that Milkis is available in San Diego (large Korean population). My Korean friends tend to call it "yogurt flavor" - actually I have a can right here, says "Refreshing Milk and Yogurt Flavor" right on it - though given a blind taste test I don't think I would've ever come up with either descriptor. To my…

I guess I'm surprised they don't get 100% of the "preowned" price? Are you discounting costs already or do publishers demand a kickback?

I agree with @avclub-ee0fbae41b96c8e0ffbc0f8466290c5a:disqus that it there's probably a way to do it right, but you're right to point out the potential for really nasty exploitation (see also, buscones in international baseball). Really the best way to do it would probably be to have the NFL in on it from the get-go a…

I… kinda like the lil grumpy guy.

So this is not about Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius?

At least we'd all get to live on a beach.

I saw someone suggest relocating the ceremony to Mexico

They did the theme for Mock Trial with J. Henry Billings Brown

If anything metal and metalheads tend more toward libertarian/"classic Liberal" individualist-type views. Almost everyone I know with similar views is appalled by what the Trump admin has been doing so far (mixed with a little anti-government "I told you so"), metalhead/bandmember or no. I'd say the percentage of…
