I have family that lives in Charlottesville, and it's definitely a wonderful small city bountiful with local culture- there's a Mediterranean restaurant there that's the bee's knees. For the pop culture geek, there's this really kickass two story video rental store alphabetized and organized by obscure categories- I…

Right? This Joe Wash solo joint is pretty great: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

My father and I are now estranged, but last year we went and saw Roger Water's second go-around of the "The Wall" tour. The first and only time I will ever smoke pot with my father, and I can't help but be glad that my last happy memory with my father is getting super blitzed at the most overblown prog rock production…

Could've just been a generic Asylum for victims of the weird super-science superhero world the Ventures occupy.

Could've sworn there were marks on the casket that made it look like this Clue Clown character's casket, although I could be wrong.

I got my ex-girlfriend into the show… hesitant to get any subsequent romantic interests into it as well :(

…that just dawned on me. Holy shit.

I've been hesitant about wearing mine for fear that it was overly geeky, but shit, I'm marching into Astronomy class tomorrow a proud employee of Hankco.

Stop crying, pumpkin. I've done this hundreds of times. David Blaine, Evel Kneival, both daddy's clients. As was Ronald Reagan, until he bounced a check.

Sames. Been throwing my HankBucks (all two of them!) up in tha club ever since.

Given that Dr. O majored (or was it minored? 'Eeney Meeney Miney Magic' has never been one of my favorites) in women's studies, there's something to be said for that.

Yeah, that track is actually on there as well. I don't know how to properly format links in disqus text, but another Glass Candy track serves as the album's opener, and it is excellent.

Say what? I think this season has been head and shoulders above Season 4, which I felt oftentimes meandered around with no clear plot to speak of. I'd agree with you that "A Very Venture Halloween" was below average, only because it reminds me of a Season 4 episode. Not to say Season 4 is bad, but it's certainly not…

Designated drove on 4th of July, so not much to report there. Saw of Montreal in Miami on Friday doe, a friend and I ended up making out with some cougars. It was pretty nifty.

@avclub-f3c95ed4c8a93c29562d9d4d395dfc2f:disqus, probably one of my favorite jokes on the show, if only because Doc says he's on Side 2, and I like to imagine "Us and Them"'s saxophone solo knocked Dean flat on his ass.

I'm a big Hatred defender, but I don't think referring to your wife's toes as little corn nibblets and slobbering on them in public spheres qualifies as… shit, I don't know what that qualifies as.

Not a big Melville crowd here, huh? He's not an easy read.

Alright, show of hands, who else is ridiculously excited for next week's OSI vs. GCI EDM extravaganza?

Given that every episode (and I say this in nearly every episode discussion, but sans the Halloween special) has knocked it out of the park, I'll take 8 episodes of perfection over 16 episodes of clear creative exhaustion any day.

Seriously, I think this might be the first time we've seen Doc treat the boys with anything that remotely resembles healthy parenting.
