…but why not just a circle?

Could someone explain the origin of the AV Club's "report everything Patton Oswalt does" policy/running gag? Like, is it a joke because people were complaining about it? Is he friends with the staff?

Really? Seems like a pretty good afterlife, as afterlives go.

McDonalds is always depressing, unless you're on a road trip.

BMO is male?

Oh, there will definitely be spaghetti. All the Italians will be comically baffled by it. "Mama mia, how do you eat this stuff!"

Sexy Isaac Newton.

I really don't think so.

Mary rhymes with fairy or airy. Merry rhymes with ferry or Jerry. Marry rhymes with carry or Larry.

re: this typo: Thanks to that recent language map of the U.S. that was going around the internet, I am now aware that there are places where "merry," "marry," and "Mary" are all pronounced the same. This makes me inexplicably angry. Learn to speak properly, slackjaws!

This is the work of dorks, not nerds.
