Ha yeah I got the 8,000 memos. I wasn’t even alive at the time to have any personal impression of Riggs as a person, nor do I have one now, but I personally would tend, in any situation where a “battle of the sexes” had been organized for the purpose of combatting rampant sexism in the given field, to root for the…

Ok.

Garrison Keillor has always been a rambler who drifts into various tangents. He’s basically lucid dreaming and sleepwalking.

Ah, so this is like high school debate! I thought you said that’s not what this was?!

That’s not true!

Astute observation. As a foreign born American I notice this all the time. Far left and Far right people use the same methodology, terminology, and mindset in their arguments all the time. They just interpret the situations quite differently. Well, looks like the people with the money have won yet again, divide and…

“...breaking their single-day record for new subscriber sign-ups,”

Genius is oft decried as heresy by those who are butt.

I only learned this year, my 38th, that you should make your s’mores with a Reese’s peanut butter cup for the chocolate layer.

What exactly do people want out of this show? Obviously it’s nowhere near being Star Trek level good, but TNG was even further away from being Star Trek level good in its first season. Most of the comedy misses rather than hits, but at this point I don’t care because The Orville is clearly a sci-fi drama, not a sci-fi…

I’m going to be super-naughty and torrent it in 1080p, then put it on my Plex server so I can stream it whenever and wherever I want. I normally only do this for shit I actually own, but thanks to this CBS All Access douchebaggery, I’m making an exception.

Trump’s impermeable dead-ender (one-third of the country) takeaway from all this: if he’s pissed off he must be a lib and if libs are pissed off then what our leader has done is correct and therefore I am happy with things and will probably badmouth this ungrateful (slur redacted) and his dumb daughter in a Facebook…

I used to get the “WTF is that?” look when I had my SVX.. Kids would look at it like they just saw a Lamborghini, I had a pair of boys in a school bus like, get up out of the front of the bus and walk to the back, and then back to the front as I passed, driver did NOT look happy :-P

It would drive me crazy to own a car that drew so much attention.

All of the obsessed questions about chains is absurd to me.

I’m willing to accept that a giant army of the dead has tools. I don’t need to see every single tool get an origin story. People obsessing over the chains have become to pedantic for their own good.

We spent so much time wondering if we could put weed in beer, we never stopped to wonder if we should.

As an AV club lurker, I think Kinja is vastly superior. I can’t tell you how many time I checked the Disqus comments on AV Club, hoping for good discussion of a show or movie, only to find a cascading circle jerk of inane “jokes” by the same 5 people. One guy says something supposedly funny in response to a comment,…

This reads like the memo from Google engineer that got fired.
