You're not the only one. I teach an African American Literature survey, and we read selections from The Souls of Black Folk. Pretty much every semester at least one student tries to tell me that I'm pronouncing Du Bois's name wrong.

Give me the cover of Exile in Guyville. Back in the early 90s pretty much every mall had a custom t-shirt store that would do silkscreens for you. The one in my town would do one of pretty much any image you brought in, copyright be damned. Guyville was the first of many custom band shirts I made, first through that

I liked the Black Keys's set, for sure. I think I'm just getting old… I feel like I have less time to warm up to artists that are new to me if their music doesn't grab me right away, whereas in the past I'd give it several tries (I can't tell you how many times I had to listen to Pet Sounds or pre-Revolver Beatles's

Yeah. I just wish they could get the band back together for like a special at least (with Colbert getting Letterman's show, that's probably the best I could hope for).

Yes! I'm hoping for more vintage Mallory in part 2.

Blow her a kiss for me, ya lucky so-and-so.

Same. With the exception of the one show that got canceled (and it was in support of my favorite NIN album, too), every one I've went to has been pretty damned amazing.

Confession time: I bought all of Bauhaus's albums back in the late 1980s when I was first introduced to them as a tween. Years later I found out that my favorite, Burning from the Inside, is considered the worst by far—just scathing reviews—because Murphy had left and the writing was apparently rushed. Whether it's

When they did "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)" together I got goosebumps.

I don't know why, but his cadence at the beginning of tonight's episode really reminded me of how he often would read Harvey's lines. That's a great example.

Probably not. I just wanted to do my Maud Lebowski imitation there at the end.

Yeah after the continuity-driven chemistry between them the last few episodes, their dynamic definitely seemed like it had gone back to the way it was before, but it's not like they ever talked about breaking up. Seems like it'll be resolved one way or another in the finale.

Sigh. The Verve. *weeps uncontrollably*

Seems like it should be an irregular noun, with "boyz" being the plural. Unless John Singleton (as well as a certain 1990s R&B act) lied to me.

Ah. The gist is that Shanks has a brain tumor but he won't let Doctor Virjay operate cuz Shanks is an Alvian, and apparently worshippers of Alvis are like Christian Scientists, only with (more) drinking and revenge. So the doc shrinks the crew down to inject them into Shanks to blow away the tumor. Meanwhile Shanks is

It's from the Shanks era—third season. Personally I don't think the show was the same after Harry Goz passed away. His son did a fine job voicing Shanks—I just think Murphy was the (crazy) heart of the show. Having said that, "Craptastic Voyage" is one of the better Shanks episodes. The whole thing is on YouTube if

Cash. Benjamins. Moolah. Sheckles. Lettuce. Bones. Clams. Or whatever you call them.

Are you thinking of how in the beginning Mallory asks why Pam is in the briefing and says "She's not even allowed to go on missions." Because if so, I thought the same thing when that came up.

AHHHHHH Bot! Get it off me!!

"Mini Mooninite"? His name is Err, dammit.
