Pre-Prime, I regularly scoured deal websites and ordered from probably 8-10 different online stores. Now, a couple of years into Prime, I automatically order everything from Amazon. I think I've made maybe 3 purchases over the past year from a non-Amazon online store, and I don't look at deal sites anymore. Kind of…

Checking my order history, I find this to be true as well. My last full year before Prime, I placed about 30 orders. My last full year with Prime, I placed about 140 orders! (This is very rough since I'm going by orders only, not # of items.) But yeah, the free 2-day shipping definitely led me to shift more of my…

All You Need Is Fap

Yeah, I admit I'm just giving you a hard time. I agree that to assume every Star Wars fan hates the prequels is a terrible generalization. Yet, it's true that fan consensus has pretty permanently solidified against them. Personally, I believe they have their moments, especially the third one, but it's also undeniable…

Yeah, I'm an "OG" Star Wars fan and loved these movies as a kid, but the last time I watched the original trilogy it struck me that they haven't aged that well. The imagery is still stunning, but in terms of the performances, dialogue, and overall story construction, there are more similarities to the prequels than I…

There are people who literally love shit. They are aroused by the smell, texture, and taste of human feces. If you offer them a plate of fresh, hot, steaming feces, they will say "God's blessings be upon you for this righteous boon you have bestowed upon me." These are people who actually exist.

I would honestly just rather we all put this era to rest and move on.

Yeah, I'm sorry but the prequels are pure cat piss. I say this as someone who desperately wanted to love each of them. They are horrible. Just shitty filmmaking.

I apologize for the cheap snark — I couldn't resist! I guess that segment did bother me for a number of reasons, one being that it just seems out of place for a show attempting to follow in the footsteps of Carl Sagan's Cosmos. Sagan didn't shy away from discussing the worst aspects of humanity, including religious…

Apparently, Agent Miller isn't dead! According to Graham Yost, he's "injured, hospitalized, but fine."

I'd vote for a Democrat if the Democrats would actually nominate one!

Riches leave.

Are we caring about presidential vacations now? Because Obama's predecessor is the current record holder at 879 vacation days.

In USA, Internet faps to you!

Better yet, Drunk History style reenactments narrated by an inebriated NDT.

What sorcery is this? Burn the witch!

Ass.

That's what makes the whole thing feel a little condescending. It's like, "eh, fuck accuracy, just give the rubes a good show, they'll never notice." Not that the original Cosmos wasn't riddled with inaccuracies, but I hoped that a high-profile show like this whose mission was to promote science would hold itself to…

Indeed, all that exploring the wonders of the universe in our spaceship of the imagination bullshit just takes the focus away from what Cosmos is really about — dredging up atrocities from the depths of human depravity!

I find Tyson entertaining and an engaging figure in his own right, but he's very different from Carl Sagan. Tyson gives off a hostile vibe that's funny when he's snarking on some idiot, but on Cosmos, when he tries to channel the humane optimism of the original, it just doesn't fit on him. Sagan was a tough,…
