Heh. I feel bad for the guy that got arrested, but it seems so hilarious that the Turkish President can't decide whether comparing his expressions to a bug eyed cave dwelling crazy person is an insult or not.

All Jedi stop at the Colbert Lightsaber Emporium and Repair.

Wasn't there a fat ginger Dwarf?

Mithras is a real time commitment.

I feel like Brian Fuller has already done this same show like 3 fucking times, better, and had them all get canceled.

No, HAIL MITHRAS!

I really have just hung up my Blizzard fandom after quitting WoW… D3 and SC2 just haven't seemed that appealing to me, because I was tired of Grind and tired of my game being divvied up into parts.

Baal was wonderfully hammy too.

It especially confuses me considering how much nudity it has in it, so you can't exactly watch it with your kids.

That sounds basically like a Batman villain mindset.

On the plus side, when I later learned about Scientology, I just thought 'Oh, that definitely sounds like something that crazy pants would do."

If you really want to go full sociopath, you should try reading some of L. Ron Hubbard's sci-fi. Invasion Earth gets super rapey.

It had such enticing cover art…. The Gap Into Madness has what looks like a Vorlon cruiser on Bath Salts on its cover, and so I just had to start it. Ugh.

It was strange enough that I always wondered why that happened. He was never great with characters, but I remember the women characters from the Foudation series were pretty strange…. he even named one of them Bliss.

Yeah, though I felt like they had to burn two other perfectly healthy relationships in the name of one destined one, which is part of why it didn't ring true for me.

Hmm. *looks up release date of Thomas Covenant and Gap into Conflict*

I wish I could remember more specifics beyond just 'pranks'. But I do remember that they weren't supposed to be the jokey fun kind. More like the pranks your boss plays on you because he knows you can't say anything back.

Yeah… sci-fi of the period and before seemed like it had a real woman problem. Which always seemed strange… Asimov was married twice, yet he couldn't write a convincing woman character if his life depended on it. Maybe it's just a different lifestyle… I've always had a lot of women friends, but I've certainly known…

A bit, but not like, 3 or 4 per episode, and all from the same character.

Right. Maybe that's why no one does it anymore? If Scrubs ran the Cut Away off the road, Family Guy took it back to its basement, broke its legs, and forced it to do things it never wanted to do.
