I have a long-running Civ 5 game where, with the aid of ridiculously overpowered Roman Legionaries, my ultimate goal is to win by having all of the enemy cities freely decide to join my Civ. Slowly but surely my cities influence their neighbors and encroach their borders with massive culture discrepancies, until one

For relaxing times, make it Suntory time.

There were many things wrong with this episode. It smacks of lazy writing.

If Seth McFarlane wants his show to be taken as serious science fiction, he might want to bring in other science fiction writers. The cracks in his scripts are showing.

Also, the whole “parallel development” thing really got under my skin for

Then again, the brown corn might be based on Aztec genetic varietals, in which case they are discouraged from being full member of corn society as they are admonished out of fear for cross-pollinating with purer breeds.

So there’s one thing that the amazing team of Silicon Valley’s finest tech geniuses couldn’t crack. Vagina. And its hygiene.

Unfortunately, this cereal box is based on the vilified and disproven theories of William Shockley regarding the genetic inferiority of brown corn versus lighter corn. IIRC, Shockley states that moral weaknesses inherent in the endosperm of brown corn makes them suitable only for work in lower-level occupations.

I’m waiting for the day a company goes the Calvin and Hobbes route and just names a cereal “Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs!”....which is pretty much what Krave is, and I feel sure the makers of that were thinking of C & H when they made it, but still.

We look back on so many talented actresses and say ‘what ever happened to them?’

Sadly, we now have our answer.

“ a photo that Weinstein’s team released of him and Judd at an event in the ‘90s, showing the two of them smiling together.” 

Pretty sure they spell it “froot” specifically to avoid legal exposure on that front.

And also to avoid setting any expectation that the product contains anything plant-based.

And “Sugar Honey” used to be what I called my secretary, before HR made me take all those courses on me not doing that.

Used to be Sugar Smacks, before shame existed.

It’s too late now, but if they wanted to make Corn Pops stand out to begin with, they should have gone the same route as the functionally similar Honey Smacks, and just said “Fuck it, let’s name it after a drug and put a frog on the box.”

Lots of products include carnauba wax. It’s not specific to gummi bears or Haribo.

Most chocolate is also harvested by slave labor. Pretty much anything that comes from tropical sources is going to be problematic in some way. Tea, coffee, bananas, mangoes, you name it.

They could always try rebranding to The Alan Smithee Company.

You’d think all these motherfuckers who got Sexual Assault Supremo in the White House would think twice about calling out other sexual predators in power.

A showbiz story involves his collaboration with Laurence Olivier on the 1976 film Marathon Man. Upon being asked by his co-star how a previous scene had gone, one in which Hoffmann’s character had supposedly stayed up for three days, Hoffmann admitted that he too had not slept for 72 hours to achieve emotional

Ah — “method” acting ... to the point where you “become”, say, Jim Morrison,and can’t help punching a girl. Those were the days.

Are you referring to the very short lived ABC live action show “Muppets Tonight”, that featured a sketch where they needed to fill air time, and Gonzo wanted to show old Muppet Babies tape, and a newer frog muppet named Zippity Zap wanted to show old Seinfeld tapes, but they bumped into each other and did a variation

Sure, Seinfeld gets masturbation on TV and it’s groundbreaking, but when I do it Wayne Brady yells at me.
