As a grocery store employee, I too climb the shelves when I don’t feel like going to the back room and grabbing the step ladder. Although I’d rather do it myself than have a customer do it, because I know how to do it safely, and I don’t know if a given customer does.

To Be Or Not To Be and The Producers are both great Nazi-themed comedies, so it can be done correctly, but if you get it wrong people will hate you forever, so it’s safer not to try in most cases. It would be interesting to see where he goes with it, though.

Pro tip for anyone who wants to buy one of these, or any other hard-to-find gift: ask an employee what day and time they get their shipments, and be prepared to stake out their toy section at 3 in the morning on a Wedensday. This is how my dad got our Wii.

Apparently that charge isn’t as cool as it sounds, it just means something along the lines of “conspired to commit a federal crime”, AKA everything else he was charged with.

No, trying to flee the country. Way more cowardly, and then we get to see him get perp-walked out of the airport in handcuffs.

It’s almost certainly Manafort and/or Flynn. They’re the ones who were the most obviously guilty, and have been the focal point of the investigation. Bet they’re going to rat out everyone higher up the food chain for a plea deal, though. I’ll prepare the popcorn.

Kingsman 2 was fine. It wasn’t high art or anything, but it was exactly the kind of ridiculous OTT spy movie I was expecting based on the first movie.

It might be best to have it off by default and the users have to turn it on. Just because they’ve already gotten bad press over the feature, it might be best to bring it back as quietly as possible.

There’s also the simple fact that as long as races come with stat adjustments, some races are going to be a better fit for your class than others. Half-orcs have an intelligence penalty, so you tend to pick classes that don’t rely on intelligence, like barbarian and fighter.

I actually did hear about someone making a gnome barbarian once. She had boots of spider climb and a maxed out acrobatics skill, and her fighting style was to run around the battlefield granting attacks of opportunity to her party members. She did not have barbarian rages so much as bursts of hyperactivity.

A really good Suicide Squad plot would be them breaking into Arkham to kill the Joker. Then you can get the most out of Harley’s backstory and messy relationship with Mister J.

You clearly never saw Spawn. Suicide Squad was bad, but at least the special effects weren’t rendered on a Playstation 1.

I’ve never seen it, but the primary complaint I’ve heard about it is that the two leads are bad actors with no chemistry, so it doesn’t sound like an “average viewers don’t get it” kind of unappreciated film.

I just got back from a welcome home party for my cousin, who just got out of the Peace Corps. My nephew is growing like a weed, and is very happy and healthy at three weeks old. I just got promoted to full-time at work. And my Savage Worlds (tabletop RPG) character narrowly avoided death today. I was really worried…

You shut your mouth, Mystery Men is a treasure!

I saw the trailer before Dark Tower, and my reaction was “Am I supposed to be rooting for all of these characters dying horribly? Because I want them to all die horribly.”

Inhumans is what happens when the big boss (Ike Perlmutter) decides the company is doing a thing, and won’t listen to anyone who tries to tell him it’s an awful idea, so his underlings just halfass the thing because they don’t have a choice.

They might be referring to that “hand over the face” thing that some young people do when their photo is being taken, but they do that to prevent social media sites from using facial recognition to tag them.

I think the sexual revolution might have contributed to the declining marriage rate, but not in the way this guy thinks. If you’re young and horny, but believe in waiting until marriage, you’re probably going to get married young to the first reasonably attractive person who comes along. But if you can bang that…

The first two seasons are on Hulu. Season 3 is currently airing, and I don’t think it’s made it to any legal streaming sites yet.
