I need to rewatch that glorious series

“You’re an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks, to collect a bill.”

Yeah he should have just flashed his “women are bitches because they won’t sleep with me” badge.

You’re projecting real hard, guy.

Eh, I don’t really think it’s fair for me to be on a jury, because I’m a hologram.

Of course I read this in the article and all I could think about was the Sealab 2021 exchange. “You mean there’s a Black Stormy?”

I think once the old guard writers left to start The Dissolve, it was the beginning of the decline. TVDW kept the TV reviews going for a while. But once he left, it felt like the heyday was definitely over.

Yeah, no I get that, I mean you were in Japan, I was asking specifically about the toy selection though

When I worked for Petco, there was a District Manager who started at Petco as a cashier at a store I worked at. She moved on to become a bird specialist, despite knowing jack and shit about birds—but she liked birds! Next, she back stabbed her way to become store manager.

The final straw that led to this firing was

Uhhhh, hey Meghan, you might have missed it, but the Republican nominee had some stuff to say about POWs broadly and your father

You know who else use the backwards “R”?

Crud. I remember when I was a kid getting such a rush out of just walking in the door to a Toys R Us. It was like the closest thing to heaven! I can’t fathom how any kid today could feel any differently.

I’d like to wish them all good luck, and remind them that nobody is counting on them.

Operation Overlord: the O.G. of anti-fascist rallies.

“Headlinese” is a weird version of English. My favorite ambiguous headline dealt with a case when a bobcat wandered into town and everybody called the cops to tell them about it — it was “Bobcat calls swamp police”, which could also mean the animal called a division of the police dedicated to patrolling marshlands.

Well, in peacetime it’s generally not acceptable to build an entire class of ships to transit cold waters and only find out they spontaneously break up when exposed to cold water after they’ve entered service

And there’d be an outcry over awarding the contract to a foreign company that would build it in US factories, which would end when the contract would go to a US company that would build it in foreign factories.
