They had passed over it with the heavy duty machine 3 times, so the smell would be present, but probably less pronounced— closer to what it would be if someone trailed in a little gas and tried to clean it up with a rag, maybe.

He thought you were nice to meet! That's awesome!

Voiceover of hyper-excited child:  "PI'WHEE'!"

I've actually gotten into interesting arguments with people who object to his use of words with Gaelic roots. I mean, from my perspective, until his, almost every translation of Beowulf I'd read missed just how poetic, playful, and fun it really is. He brought that back, and I think that, almost as much as anything,…

She can call herself that, but you really shouldn't.

I want to live by your freeways.

I prepare food in the kitchen and living room (hey, if i have a bunch of chicken to shred in my giant bowl, I'm going to watch TV while I do it) and eat it at my desk (mostly so I can read comments from you fuckers). I don't know if that's civilized or not, but I do know that my cat likes me to feed her some of that…

It didn't lower the grade for me, since we're talking that way now, but it did kind of make me sigh. At least they didn't blow up at the waiter ("I don't want to get into a semantic argument; I just want the protein!") or have the long, awkward stare while he flitted about. Mainly, I was anticipating the bad jokes…

It's pronounced 'gwak-a-mol-ee,' and quit eating our young!

Watching your descent into madness as the mercury ravages your body and mind should be entertaining.

Yeah, I was kind of veering off topic there and speaking more generally. That was my inability to stay focused. I just find this sort of adaptation to be so irritating that I responded in scatter-shot.

I think there are enough people who believe that going to musical adaptations of movies makes them more cultured than people who just see the movies, so there should always be an audience for this kind of crap.

@avclub-b4238f7793ec8c1a632f14f2a1766c68:disqus — Even though War Games is mostly silly, watching Joshua run through the nuclear war scenarios at the end still gives me a frisson. It's horrifying in that it's still a possibility— shit, it almost happened in 1995 when a miscommunication led Russia to believe that we…

I saw it in the theater in 3D. I have no idea how that worked out, but I know that I did. 3D glasses smelled weird back then… almost edible. More than the movie, I remember the smell of those cardboard and polarized film glasses.

I don't know when you were given that question, but the naming conventions were changed in 1999 to adhere to SI designation of "Kilo-" as 1000.

I was about to ask for this exact same piece of clarification.

Even worse is that when you search for something on amazon, even by mistake, you start getting emails about it. It took me a while to figure out where and how to remove things from my "searched for" list there.

The problem is that they sanitize their shunts in the jacuzzi.

@Pemberton and Anne Frank— peas in a pod.
