If you think that was an actual pile of shit, you have a serious misunderstanding about how movies and television are made. It was almost certainly a very convincing prop. It is still absurd that it's someone's job to make the most convincing looking pile of fake shit possible, but there is no way that was a real pile…

Wasn't Bungie originally a Mac-focused developer? I own that series of games they did pre-Halo but can never remember the damn name. O-something. I'm clearly not a big shooter guy. I really don't even care about Halo, TBH, just mildly fascinated by the evolution of the studio.

I was at the Hollywood Palladium show, and it was fantastic. I do imagine there will be a bit of controversy over a particular bit that he did. The whole thing was great though, he hasn't lost a step.

Kellyanne Conway, is that you?

Oh man, this one is tough.

His novels are pretty great, too. Before the Fall seems pretty much tailor made for a film adaptation, structure wise.

I vote for the entirety of Naked Baby Photos.

Nothing for Major Boredom?
