Athletic & explosive.

I love it when people take something James Ellroy says in an interview serious.

You're missing out.

Dan Burros isn't even all that original. Hans-Joachim Schoeps was a Jewish Nazi at the time before you had to add neo- to it.

Well, they do have nice uniforms…

He's not even subtle about it and yet people always fall for it and get outraged. Reading his books makes it extremely clear that his views in interviews and his real views aren't the same.

So now that the opening ceremony of the Olympic games is over: What did you think of it? Thought it was pretty great, probably at least as good as London.

Opening ceremony is pretty great thus far.

Unlike The Last Temptation of Christ which was already controversial among fundies as a book, Silence is based on a book by a devout Catholic. It will be interesting to see how close Scorsese stays to the theology of the book.

With this and the American version of AAA the whole point of El Rey seems to be to have inferior versions of stuff that's successful somewhere else.

Double post, disqus made me do it.

Reading the comments here and comparing them to the comments at the The Dissolve really show a difference in comment quality that doesn't reflect well on us.

I like how the different sects of Shiism one-up outhipster each other: "12 imams? That's too much. The later ones are way to mainstream. Having seven is much more authentic." "Seven? Ismaili, please. 5 or get the fuck out."

X-Files are over and you never even covered The Lone Gunmen. It's because they stopped you, right?

Well, since this article is pretty much flamebait anyway let me just add that the author is using the term "football" incorrectly. The sport he is discussing is called "handegg".

He also was an apologist & admirer of one of the worst mass murderers of the last century for decades, something most obituaries conveniently forget to mention.

Ein Volk. Ein Reich. Eine Khaleesi.

So is Mara Latvian or Russian? Both other characters and she herself don't seem to be sure.

Or the remake of The Thick of It without any swearing.

With the recent court ruling against net neutrality cable companies now have a pretty good tool to fuck with Netflix if they want.
