AV Club pieces the news together mostly from old sugar packets.

Fuck, did you hear Robin Williams died?!?

So I typed Robert Rackstraw into Google and the first result was book that came out two years ago explaining the connections between Rackstraw and D.B. Cooper. There was even a show on the History Channel about it called D.B. Cooper: Case Closed. Anyway, more breaking news from the AV Club!

The rest of this person’s posts are quite, um, entertaining. I’d bet a good percentage of them were made from a public library.

What?

Well, since I’m a cool, older person, I’ll tell you my theory, that it is. Yes, well you may well ask, what is my theory. my theory that I have follows the lines I am about to relate. Ahem.

That’s a bad theory 

Thank you, completely unbiased commenter who totally doesn’t work for Epix. 

Does this mean you are going to be posting more auto play garbage? Your market is cube monkeys trying to escape the drudgery, they can’t be watching videos it is too obvious. No wonder Univision wants to send you down the Swanee, stop throwing money at garbage and throw it at Steph. Maybe send her on a grand road trip…

you don’t know how anything works, do you?

One of the many terrible things about Kinja is that there's a very decent chance he does not know where he's at.

I hear Hormel Black Label Bacon is veeeeery interested!

Dump the Gawker sites, go back to the old commenting system and I'll chip in a couple grand. Who's with me?

And yet until this story posted all I knew about Tab Hunter was the series of sex puns the bots made in the MST3K episode San Francisco International Airport.

It’s so fucking frustrating. Monty Python may never have been diverse (apart from Chapman being gay), but their counterculturalism was a risk to the BBC. They were, in some sense, outsiders that a lot of people didn’t want to hear from. Now the BBC is just saying “We still want outsiders, but the definition of who…

I always thought the Lumberjack Song was very supportive of its lumberjack. The other characters freaking out, well, that was their problem.

I agree, but you make it sound like everything Python ever did was Seth MacFarlane-esque racist, sexist and homophobic jokes. In fact, most of it still holds up and is pretty neutral silliness, that actually more often makes fun of stiff squares. The stuff that doesn’t hold up is at least more “Well, those were…

I’ve given up, Crow.
