“I’ve observed that a lot of stores will stock items with the oldest expiration dates up front.”

And counterweight: don’t buy it just because it’s on sale.

Side note that might as well go here: in every single grocery store, the Oreos are at one end or the other of the main cookie aisle. Nabisco pays to make that happen so they’ll stand out.

What’s crazy about that example is that he’s supposedly Ned Leeds, a 1960s-to-80s Spider-Man supporting character, who he...isn’t. He just isn’t.

No, it’s an “overnegation” — it should be either “hard to deny that B&E’s transformation is fundamental...” or “hard to argue that B&E’s transformation isn’t fundamental...”. The meaning is only clear because people zip by that kind of construct because they expect it to make sense. But literally speaking, it’s…

Ah, I think I know the British show you’re talking about.  Two shows, really, right?

Minus the hair, I think she even looks a little like SMG.

Just like nobody ever said “Boy, I really feel like a Leftover!” on that show.

I have never seen such sharp-edged shoulders in my life.

Belushi: <smash> Sorry, man.

I don’t know if I was supposed to think this, but there’s a little moment where Sam and Bucky are looking at Walker and the bloody shield, and I can hear them thinking “I do NOT want to be in the pictures of this that everyone around us is taking.”

Mobile?   Hell, I just had that same issue on desktop Chrome and had to switch to another browser.

And then Aquaman could say “chum is a disparaging term for marginalized fish and THEY ARE MY FRIENDS”.

Mother FUCKER how did I not post “Obi-One...there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.”

God, I remember “Obi-One”.  Good times.

Party because of the drugs I was on when I saw ST:TMP, I had the insight that V’Ger is itself a metaphor for the movie it’s in: it’s a 1960s artifact that came back years later, orders of magnitude too big.

Did you know that Danielle Nicolet was the star of a two-season (well, 17-episode) comedy-drama on TV One called Born Again Virgin? I did not, until recently.

It’s pretty innovative to complain that a company won’t sell you stuff and then blame “capitalism” for it.

The sawmill thing is definitely a reference to a similar (cliffhanger) scene in an episode of the 1966 Batman show, right?  It’s not just me?

On the one hand, yes, on the other hand, if there is something wrong, it’s a fact, and your choices are find out now or find out when it blows up a deal in progress, or at least complicates it. You only lose if the inspector finds out something that the buyer’s inspector would not have found, and you can’t ever know…
