I'm probably going to start my annual rewatch of From the Earth to the Moon. I watched the episode about the LM development with my dad last night, and one thing we both agreed on was how great it was when the series gets to Apollo 13, they take the focus off the astronauts. I tend to watch the movie with that episode

Spray gunfire at a police station and lead them on a chase hucking pipe bombs at 'em? Oh, he's a doughy white guy. Call him 3 times to negotiate before finally putting him down.

With welders, grinders, and the ever-present film of oil about, the thicker material can keep stuff off your skin. Now, you get a decent dose of nitric acid on you, breakaway running pants are the only safe choice.

Working a paid engineering internship at an Ammonium Nitrate plant, and since I have to go into the plant on a regular basis, it's jeans and lightweight polos on 93+ days, and long-sleeve "military" style shirts I can tie the sleeves back on when it's cooler. I hope I never get to a level of responsibility that

Shenmue III and FFVII remake confirmed. Shenmue via Kickstarter, though. I think I'm lightheaded.

"Duct tape is magic and should be worshipped."

"Sure brah! Millions of people are dying and you're a public service rescue pilot, but go ahead and take your vital piece of VTOL rescue equipment to save your ex! We'll wait."

Only time that argument ever worked out:
Ferruccio Lamborghini: "This clutch in my Ferrari sucks!"

The only way I survived that song being played ad nauseum at school functions (Oklahoma, go figure) was to imagine "boot in 'yer ass" referred to a filthy sex act utilizing a stylized German drinking glass.

You would be correct, good sir or madam.

I feel like any mention of this game should come with a trigger warning for emotional trauma, but I still wander the streets in Shenmue to appreciate the graphics. God damn if we'd ever gotten part three…

That one definitely gets a lifetime achievement award for "Workin With Whatcha Got"

I couldn't have been the only seven year-old who tried getting a phony warrant for Ms. San Diego.

Is it 1999 again, or did I have a stroke? Since they didn't drop the "e" from extreme, I'm leaning toward stroke.
