Well said. It just seems like a non-issue. Not every restaurant needs to be for everyone all the time. There are still restaurants you can bring kids, complete with crayons and paper placemats and high chairs, and if I happen to go to one of those restaurants, I run the risk of hearing shrieking children throughout my…

If 60% of orders are custom, you have a problem. Either your menu doesn’t suit your customers’ needs, or you’re attracting a clientele that is actively attempting to make your company less profitable (it’s the latter). I suppose my typical order is technically custom, but I’ve more or less stopped going to Starbucks…

So excited for HBO’s biggest tax write off of all time.

Linklater’s most recent rotoscoped feature, Apollo 10 1/2, was initially rejected by the Oscars as “not animation,” but upon appeal, they relented that it was animation, but still didn’t nominate it.

What really stung for me is that season 3 really demanded a follow-up. The end of season 2 was just one of the most fantastic crowd-pleasing finales of all time, to the point where I almost wish we never got a season 3 if we can’t have a season 4.

Yeah, it definitely appears like the punchline is: there’s nothing funny about transphobia, albeit through the clunky delivery of AI.

And for the 584th time, everyone understands this and no one is ever going change the wording from “free” to “available at no additional cost to current Playstation Plus members with active subscriptions,” which is something that all 584 of these articles also mention.

Exactly. I doubt she’s being boycotted by Connecticut’s best tippers.

I feel like the pandemic and writing from home really opened the team up, creatively. Like they set up their home offices and said, “screw it, I’m finally going to write that idea I had where it’s Fargo but Ned Flanders.”

Agreed on the wall episodes, but it also annoys me that those episodes seem to exist just for Roiland to prove that he knows how to write a coherent story, but he’d rather troll people by putting a halfway decent show inside of an incredibly stupid show.

Well, now we know what Jerry saw.

I met him on a set (no, not a porn set; he was cameoing in a movie for a few days). This would have been 15-20 years ago, and he was definitely gross and selfish. Whenever he wasn’t the center of attention, he would just do loud, strange things. I wish I could say, “Oh, this dementia thing explains why he wiped the…

But that’s the thing: they almost always show up to the vote with a hint of bootleather already on their breath. The optics are terrible whether McCarthy gets it or not. They either wasted days trying to prevent the inevitable and prove that they can’t get even the simplest of tasks completed, or they prove that it…

The Twilight Zone - Night of the Meek gets me every time.

At least it’s a black bear.

The Takeout similarly suggested this nonsense for Thanksgiving. I’m militantly adamant that I don’t directly cause anyone else to work on Thanksgiving or Christmas. I frequently have to work those holidays myself, but I make sure in advance that I’m able to feed myself, whether it’s a sad sack dinner or an indulgent…

At this point, I might have a chance at becoming Pope.

A few years ago, I had this minor epiphany that I don’t actually hate Christmas. Christmas and Christmas Eve can be kind of nice! They just aren’t anywhere near nice enough to make up for how miserable November 1 - December 23 are. And the solution always seems to be “MORE Christmas!” I swear, before I’m dead they’ll…

Incidentally, I would love for Aubrey Plaza to play The Joker.
