As much as we (I'm using the "editorial we" here) criticize and poke fun at little sayings like "you are beautiful" on billboards for all to see, very simple self-affirmation exercises can actually be pretty helpful for people who have issues with self-esteem. I'm not speaking personally, but based on some of the…

It sounds so good I'd watch a television show of you watching that show!

Do you firmly believe people would know their partner is/isn't going to marry them after 1.5 to 2 years? That's not right.

I have to say, I laughed pretty hard at this reply. Bravo.

Man, Timothy Olyphant and Conan have great on-screen chemistry. I'd totally watch a show with the two of them solving crimes, and Andy Richter as their exasperated grandmother.

I share this same pet peeve. People are the WORST. Let's kill them all!

Maybe if you pay him enough.

Ah man, I absolutely remember that song. I did not know that was Goldfinger. That brings back memories. Mostly of scraping my virtual knees on comment, and doing really limp grinds down 3 foot rails of staircases for a very limp sum of digital points.

That's fair about the Burton comparison. I agree with all the songs you listed by Skiba being pretty good with hooks. I guess what I mean, though, is that the hooks from DeLonge in Blink are actually more creative and novel sounding. Alkaline relies really heavily on power chords and octaves, and often has a much more…

Are all of those games called Pro Skater? I remember bands like the Dead Kennedys on the soundtrack, but not Goldfinger. Though, to be honest, even if I did hear Goldfinger, I probably wouldn't know it..

I don't know about Skiba being the better songwriter, fullstop. I'd make the argument that Skiba is definitely the more creative lyricist, with his own signature macabre humor and sarcastic wit peppered into most of his lyrics, tinged with some Burton-esque dark imagery. DeLonge, however, does sometimes have lyrics…

The only thing I know from Goldfinger is that cover of "99 Red Balloons" which is what you'd expect from a pop-punk cover of a German funk/pop single from the 80's or 90's or whatever about a giant gaggle of balloons being mistaken for something of import and worthy of military action across the globe. It was…

Also Matt Skiba in glasses, with that haircut, looks a bit like Tom Delonge, too. I wonder if he's trying to mimic Delonge in photos, and stand very still, so nobody will look at him too hard and realize he's not the same guy from the band like 3 years ago?

Man, I still love The Idler Wheel and listen to it frequently since it was released.

Are you Netflix, in disguise? Because that sounds exactly like the sort of thing someone said about themselves, in disguise, defending their own honor.

It's kind of difficult to imagine a show based on "Lost in Space" being worth watching… and I love space!

Wasn't it reported that one of them already left Sense8? I'm pretty sure there's only one Wachowski on it now, and there was also a casting change for one or two characters - including "Van Damme."

Ah man. They must have been very bad studies.

Half-remembered? That's being really generous. My impression was that the writers of that episode have never seen an episode of Law & Order in their entire lives.

Precisely. I'm not a lawyer, but have studied a fair amount of law proceedings for criminal justice cases, at least, and it… I mean, it's pretty stupefying how bad the court scenes were. It's embarrassing that the characters are supposed to be lawyers, as well, and then they go in and fuck it up that hard. Honestly,…
