This always terrifies me about the apocalypse. 95% of my job involves spreadsheets. I should probably learn how to dry laundry on rocks.

Thanks, I hadn't seen the new art yet.
Gah, I sure hope so on the Starfire front. Her new 52 costume looks like something that would get you fired from a gentlemen's club for not wearing enough to strip out of.
I am a very, very recent fan of Harley purely from her new solo series. I've read a few and enjoyed them (starting with the Christmas issue, so VERY recently), but literally I have never regularly read another series other than short Vertigo runs that never end up coming back. Horror comedies are my favorite type of…
I love how they so clearly hired a stand-in/body double and then got Tara Strong to do the voice in an ADR studio.
Crab wars? I'd insert a venereal disease joke, but if you already have a venereal disease joke you don't need one inserted. (taps cigar)
So I can reward myself for completing 5 minutes of a task by reading a blog I like, say io9... back to work for 5 minutes!
Mine completes me, and my beers, and my french fries.
Gotcha. I didn't know there were two, I know haz the smarterz. Thanks!
To be fair, its a big bang.
Not at all! Now we can get Katherine Heigl as a psychologist studying breakups (who of course is a commitment phobe), C Tates as one of her subjects, a hunky yet sensitive kindergarten teacher just got his heart ripped out by his ex-fiancee. It writes itself!
And you know Cthulhu ain't gonna die before you, so you really never have to worry about being alone.
+1,000. So many people I know can't understand why, as a woman in a committed life partnership, I still refuse to celebrate Valentine's Day. I think the average amount spent last year in the US on VDay was $160. That's reason enough, without it being a stupid guilt holiday. I feel about VD the way that Ebert felt…
The last "Valentine's Day" activity was to have a pancake eating contest at IHOP. While not a good idea in reality, I always liked to do something completely non-romantic and non-Valentine's on Valentine's Day. Get friends together and get 4 for $4 beef and cheddars and Arbys and then play video games or something, it…
And I don't know why they wouldn't want to wash their bloody hands, germ theory or no. Blood is sticky and gross. Granted, Dr. Semmelweis was suggesting more of a disinfecting wash, not just regular soap, but the doctors were like, "You're calling us incompetent. We're not. We're doctors, suggesting we kill people is…
I was just reading about Ignaz Semmelweis, who figured out the reason that women giving birth in hospital with doctors in attendance were more likely to catch "childbed fever" and die than those giving birth with midwives in attendance, was because doctors were dissecting dead bodies with the fever, not washing their…
Tangentially related, have any of you seen the 1960 film Sex Kittens Go To College? It has a weird robot subplot, and the end of the film is like 15 minutes of girls doing strip-tease dances FOR THE ROBOT while he comments on it, in a creepy Robby-like voice, e.g. "Yeah." "Do it." "Take it off." Its so bizarre and…
I don't know that much about Manichaeism. Was any of it influenced by Zoroastrianism (if its possible to give a quick answer to that)?
But where's the bar? Oh, right, in the den on an aerodynamically shaped, propeller-laden wheeled card.
Ahahaha. You could never fit a computer into a house, let alone store all the punch cards you'd need!
