I must be naive, but I thought even the racists in Pennsyltucky would be turned off by the puppy torture. Apparently, nothing is too awful to be part of the GOP brand. Between this prick and John of God, Oprah really has a lot to answer for.

Unfortunately the far right are doing well all around the world.

This project was doomed to fail because Hollywood has spent decades making virtual reality look really, really cool. In reality, the technology is still lame as hell. It’s like seeing the movie Hackers and then trying to do any sort of digital espionage in real life. 

Which is disgusting on so many levels.

Not only is this show incredibly funny, but the actresses are so good that they can still pull off teenage angst despite being in their late-20's/early 30's. It’s astonishing how great they are.

I was working in video game retail when CD based games became a thing and the price point going down to $49.99 was a selling point. The idea was that cartridges were what made games cost so much. 

Ah the good old days. Still remember rolling into Sears to pickup a copy of SSF2 on Genesis for a breezy 79.99. 

Yeah, but look at how cheap the consoles were! I remember saving up my allowance to get the N64.

Just like the good ol days!

I thought for sure this was going to be a slideshow.
