The bigger problem is that there's no curating for the storefront anymore. With 40% of new releases being a back-catalog dump and the other 30% being Early Access content with questionable development plans, how am I supposed to trust anything on there anymore?

I'll give you Two-Face, but Carrey is the only saving grace of this film. WHy? Because Jim Carrey is probably the only actor in Hollywood who can actually make outlandish costume and props work for him instead of against him. The guy knows how to emote even in thickest prosthetic possible.

!I'm the bitch Juggernaut!"

The Borg. Unstoppable, relentless, all-consuming, no pity.

LOL, all the "nerd havens" are in sparsely populated states... Bad data? Yep, it's easy to come out with a higher percentage where the population is lower. This is the same kind of skewed data that Creationists and Antivaccers love to use. For shame, io9!

This needs a subset for Louisiana - just New Orleans. NOLA is so full of nerds that not only do we parade our nerd culture, we brought it home, fed it, named it, and let it sleep on the end of the bed.

I'll buy that Mass is nerd hell. I had a hard time there.

But this map is trying to tell me that California, which hosts a number of HUGE cons (ComiCon, WonderCon, etc...) is #34? Nope.

I wore my Doctor Who shirt, and brought light into a lot of nerds lives today. And they let me know it. California is FULL of nerds!

And

Speaking as a citizen of Duluth, Minnesota - where Geek Prom was born, where we have a booming Nerd Nite monthly, where I just hosted a weekly Firefly gathering at a local cinema, where tonight there's a sold out viewing of Fritz Lang's 1927 Metropolis - I disagree with these findings for Minnesota. Or maybe Duluth is

West Virginia is ranked #10; trying to picture a hill-billy nerd. Brain explodey.

Yes, Massachusetts, home to MIT and Harvard, is certainly a nerd hell.

Nowwaitadamnminute! So you are telling me that all of these metrics are based on Facebook searches?! WTF people?! Since when has Facebook been a credible source for anything???

This study is flawed... I traced back to originating article and it says that captured the data by reviewing posts on Facebook... As the old computer adage says, "garbage in - garbage out"...

Yes, move to Wyoming, where you too can be one of the 6 people talking about star wars.

Please don't get me started on the gluten free diet movement. It makes me want to strangle people.

I see the political spectrum as more of a ring than a line. You've got right and left, and then half way between them on one side is moderate, and half way between them on the other side is "batshit crazy" territory. Go far enough in either direction and you'll get there, worried about the same stupid shit, just

When I had my first child I went in asking for a revised vaccination schedule. I was fine with vaccines, I just didn't want so many pokes in one visit. I was told no, everyone stays on the same schedule. It hurt, to be shut down so emphatically.

"HELLO SIR HAVE YOU HEARD THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT GEOFFREY GIRAFFE?"

Wow. When I was younger I could've sworn I saw a white-tail trying to chew on shed antlers, but my dad didn't believe me. Maybe it was something like this?

So does this mean there's FINALLY a studio exec audience willing to make that Deadpool film that's been in development hell? Script wasn't half bad if memory serves.

As long as Deadpool looks like Deadpool and spends half the movie talking to the audience, I'm in.
