I think it’s because of incompatible equipment.

It’s mostly a joke and he’s using it as an excuse to make a bunch of other jokes. Don’t overthink it. In a sense this is light-hearted trolling; people who respond to it too much in earnest have already missed the point.

I’ve only ever heard “Hey Ya!” so, much as I’d like to get involved in yet another pointless generation-war shouting match, I’m gonna sit this one out.

The shapes in the original cereal were each individually hand-crafted by a team of marshmallow artists (or martists) who spent untold hours carving, shaping and sculpting every piece. If you inspect the contents of a box from the 80s, you can clearly see unique tool markings on each piece. Some martists even etched…

Marion Cotillard, born 1975.

I saw her at a local comedy club shortly after that. We had tons if security because she was getting death threats.

I have a lot of respect for journalism, and the role it applies in holding powerful people accountable, but good heavens are journalists some of the most smug, insufferable people I’ve ever encountered. They seem to think that because we pay attention to them to figure out what heck is going on in the world that this…

I worked in public affairs when I was in the Navy. Back in ‘08 I spent a morning in the Fox News green room while my boss waited to go on. I’ve been in frat houses that were better furnished. The main thing I remember about my brief time backstage—other than it looked like nobody cared—was that the microwave in the…

Ever hear about the studies that showed that a lot of conservatives thought The Colbert Report was on their side? As dumb as that is, at least those people were consistent with their beliefs in admiring the character’s rhetoric. What really boggles the mind to me is all the conservatives who said Stephen’s character…

You’ve managed to skip over the one legitimately good Fast film, Fast 5 is undoubtedly the high point of the franchise and perfectly rides the line between ludicrous action and high-octane fun that subsequent entries have struggled to balance.

Let’s break this down: I made a completely irrelevant and slightly facetious point regarding philosophy majors. It doesn’t deny Tyson his astrophysics degree or that he is an excellent scientist but there is a great deal of research suggesting that philosophy is a rhetorical field, one not based on facts but on logic…

I remember being somewhere with premium cable probably 5 or so years ago and seeing that they still occasionally aired some late night skinemax. But I also remember watching the very entertaining documentary Popatopolis from 2009, which showed the making of a 2005 Jim Wynorski boob movie that was bound for skinemax.…

Lots of cars

“The last and the furious” was right...there!

Neil deGrasse Tyson: The good thing about Science is that it’s true, whether or not you believe in it.

“you sonofabitch, I’m dead!”

Obviously the Canadian version is Steak-eh?

And their Australian counterpart: Steak-y fair dink-umm!

For once, I think Steak Umm has made a good point here. The whole point of science, that I think Tyson misstated, is that it’s NOT about truth. It’s about understanding through proven methods that can be replicated. Even the most seemingly accepted “facts” about the observable world, aren’t so much facts or truths, as…

Look, Tyson’s got his problems, but I’m not siding with a company whose very name expresses such hesitancy about whether what they sell is actually steak.
