"and knocking a microphone out of his hand (while Jones screams about people infringing on his free speech just a few feet away"

Benjamin Franklin's autobiography. If I could just accomplish in my lifetime 1/100 of what he could do my noon, I'd be happy.

I've only tried watching it 2 times but I've only made it about 45 minutes in each time. Most of his other stuff clicks, but I've just had trouble with The Life Aquatic.

Role Models rarely gets enough love

This is the show I'm looking forward to most for the Fall, so I'm just a little excited. And that use of music, this show.

Grand Theft Auto (Obviously), and Age of Empires (how do you turn this on). I didn't even know how to play AoE without cheats until like 6 months ago.

Oh lands, that opening sequence was hilarious. Any show which successfully pulls off killing in such a trivial fashion is fine by me. What a great episode. "Restraining!"
And Preacher doing that to poor Eugene. He is a bad, bad man

My friends and I thought we were so clever for knowing he was singing "vagina" at the end. We were, safe to say, the fucking worst.

I'm definitely not into this band as much as I was when I was but a wee, tiny little shit, but 14 year old me is really bummed at how this sounds. Feldmann? Why guys?

I legitimately thought Tidal had been around for 2-3 years now, but a little over a year? Get that out of here.

Agreed. It has all the ingredients to feel dated, but it's still one of my favorite albums to this day. And those quieter moments, man…

I don't know, I kind of like it, the pacing anyway. Granted, I have no knowledge about the source material at all, but the way things are starting to unfold, and the way the show occasionally shows these brief moments of "Oh shit," clicks with me. And maybe this is just me buying into it, but each character having

This dude's written a book on aliens and even appeared on some low-key am radio stations to talk about them. I think he might truly believe in them.

While the movie itself is good, and I love the idea of my emotions being controlled by sentient things, what helps elevate it to possibly my favorite Pixar film is the score. When that final clip of When Joy Turns to Sadness comes on, I'm just done at that point, in the best possible way.

Pretty much anything by Halldór Laxness. I read Independent People a while back and just fell in love with it and it's overall poetic vibe. Granted, I'm not particularly well read, but that book has been my de facto go-to for exceptionally well-written fiction since. Dude just scratches an itch.

The King of Limbs has an unfortunate case of being merely good and slightly experimental. Separator will go down as, at least, a top 10 Radiohead song for me though.

I just wanna say that "Your Best American Girl" is hands down my soty so far. Whatever noise is coming from her guitar is monstrous.

I don't know, she's 20, and maybe just doesn't know, I don't know. But fucking still, saying alcohol should be considered to lighten that dude's situation, which I understand, but come on. Especially after some of the things his father and that judge said.

Jepson, Nelson, same thing.

Agreed. There's a good chance it's just me, but while the hooks and melodies are nice, this style on them is just too poppy for me, which is weird because I loved that last Carly Ray Nelson album.
