She didn't just sing the theme on the gender-bent episode of AT, she INVENTED Fionna and Cake and is a major player on that show. Also notable: Steven Universe, the new cartoon of former AT-storyboarder Rebecca Sugar. I believe it's the first female-created Cartoon Network show. Ladies be doing things in the cartoon…

I can't watch the video right now, but I know that forcefeeding isn't pleasant (to say the least). But, I want to ask something completely non-sarcastically- what's the alternative? Realistically speaking, the men at Guantanamo aren't going to be released any time soon. I'm not saying that's right, mind you, it's…

No sir! All the heavy atoms in the dice settle to the bottom and leave you more likely to roll low again. You have to train your dice to roll high.

But in a cute way, right? Like the mother lemur is protecting the baby from the crowd of scary paparazzi.

Clearly, it's due to our subconscious memories of the Age of Dragons.

(Old black worm spits fire! )

I've had it up to here with the media forcing these issues on us that most of America doesn't care about. Seriously! Nobody wants to hear about the NBA.

"My name is Hubert, and this is not a prologue," said the grizzled, hungover man squinting at the sun.

My reaction as well. I think the short version would be: if you think you are not at the level of George R. R. Martin or Arthur C. Clarke, then at least try not to sound pretentious or use a 'clever' gimmick that the editor has seen a dozen times that week. Hackery that tries something new at least (maybe) gets…

Pretty much all of these rules can be summed up in the First Commandment of Writing: Thou shalt not waste the reader's time.
