Hearing Seth Rogers ‘s take on birth makes me really glad I’m not his child

See that sounds like a genuine hook that will be completely squandered.

Like, I'll look at something cool and creative some talented kids make and just say "I really wish this was an academic article" and immediately hate myself.

Is it weird that I heard the phrase “a city-builder that has a particular focus on how urban planning worked alongside the communist economies of Eastern Europe during the Cold War” and got really excited but then just wished it was an expansive thesis paper I could read on jstor?

Wasn’t Cebulski the guy who broke out in the industry by pretending to be a Japanese man? Did anything come off that? I haven’t read many comics in recent years, but it’s a little surprising to see that name.

Considering that most of the reviews praise Majors even when they’re critical of the movie overall puts things in perspective.

Wtf are you

Wait until you hear about the Brothers Grimm.

Calling it now. Kang is a paper tiger for queueing up Doom (possibly with some wild mash-up adventure that’s lets them roll out all the celeb cameos).

It sounds like they did the second best thing - creating a system where gender identity is untethered from the options available in the character creator. It's something that feels like it should be the baseline at this point, but it's satisfying to see it implement in this franchise.

It would be funnier if you said now-ex-partner. Just saying.

I’ll only let my children watch movies where at least 90% of the footage is lectures that will prepare them for the SATs.

Maybe that’s the idea. In the original Batman and Son, Damian went back off to the league of assassins for a while after his dad’s first interaction with him. Maybe the idea will be that each brave and the bold movie features a different team up, and Damian will be aged up from the start, put on ice so he can be brough

If you liked Lemire’s Animal Man run, the Swamp Thing run that ran concurrently was also really good. I think Scott Snyder wrote it? I remember Grant Morrison having a fun Action Comics run and a neat little high fantasy series, but I don't remember much beyond that!

I think we’re thinking of different eras actually. You’re talking about the new 52 reboot I believe, which really ran the gamut in terms of quality.

My guess is that they use Booster to explain any transitions from the old to new universe without the need for Flash. But if they draw from 52 and the booster gold book that spun out of that, they've got a great potential template.

Yeah, that’s the weird thing for me. Part of the fantasy of being evil is about flipping norms and pissing people off. It strikes me that not having people recognize evil behavior undermines the whole subversive fantasy altogether.

I regret to inform you that you’ve been ranked as one of the bottom 5% of devil’s advocates. Expect a demotion on your next report, and termination if you can’t start making less lazy arguments.

Yeah, all of them. They're called CEOs.

Math checks out to me
