Good point. If we guess that the Brig was about 30 when he met the Second Doctor, that would put his birth date in the 1930s.

There was a time when the sight of Gatiss’s name annoyed me, but he’s come a long way as a writer (from terrible to competent) and as an actor (from bad to compelling). He’s clearly been working hard to improve in both areas.

Also, whatever it is that adherents of the Flying Spaghetti Monster believe, you should take those freaks into account.

No wishes for a wild Saturnalia? This site’s bias against ancient Romans continues unabated, I see.

Practically need a law degree and medical degree to be an NFL fan nowadays.

The nuance that seems to evade almost everyone is that of course Trump is right that the national media is antagonistic toward him - they are toward every president. The differences now are a) he deserves it, b) he can’t handle it and would like to put a stop to it, and c) the media itself still hasn’t adjusted to the…

I knew I felt something, but I thought it was indigestion.

I think this very same mentality is the only reason Rex Tillerson still has his job. Trump’s No. 1 priority right now is finding opportunities to say that the media was wrong about something, even if he has to shoot himself in the foot to do it.

I’m sure after Trump’s out of office, they’ll reconcile just like Jefferson and Adams and share a correspondence that echoes through the ages. Mostly they’ll be forwarding each other revenge porn.

Knowing Trump, they’d be more likely to embed one of those greeting-card audio chips so it shouts “Lock Her Up!” every time you squeeze the coin.

Couldn’t squeeze “lock her up” on there, eh? Well, maybe next time.

Poe did screw up in a big way, but historical figures such as Washington, Grant and Sherman have similar errors on their record:

And he was so looking forward to fucking up our shit, too. Oh well, at least nobody’s happy.

As long as they drive me stark raving insane in the process, they can OH GOD THE FLAMES AND THE EMPTINESS AND THE VOID AND THE NONSTOP YANNI!!!!!

Oh goody, this is one of the last seals that will summon Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep and C’thulhu to devour our souls and put an end to this disgusting mockery of a year.

It’s not fair to hold the kid to account when mommy and daddy have a fight.

Huh.

When they drafted Flacco, he saw raw power.

I got crappy presents for my family this year because of the anthem protests.

My advice would be, if you’re really not feeling the Christmas spirit, but you’re planning to engage out of a sense of obligation, you don’t have to. Sometimes it’s good to force yourself to be around others, but sometimes it’s OK to withdraw into your shell for a little while. Don’t let anyone guilt you into taking…
