If you ask someone who isn’t a superfan of Star Wars about Rogue One, the opinions, in my experience, range from “it’s okay,” to “it was ridiculous” to ‘I had no idea what it was about” to “I didn’t care about any of these characters” to “it was fun.”

I’m getting a major case of deja vu. Wasn’t there an obituary related to Digital Underground not too long ago? I seriously thought “again?” when I read this headline.

I thought for a second that William Hughes had just found out, decades later, about the cartridge-stacking feature and was announcing it to everyone as if it were a triumphant discovery. I thought it was kind of wholesome and cute, really.

Marijuana.

He is obviously referring to climate change, not the 2000 election. I have no idea where you get the idea that Gore’s approach to education on the subject has been superficial or redundant.

I had to Google it too. Not because I didn’t know what it was, though. I just have a problem.

News sources are, by definition, secondhand (unless we’re talking about the primary source of information for the article, i.e. Emma Watson or Seth Rogen). And headlines are, by definition, supposed to be the factual distillation of a story. 

It’s too bad Rodney Dangerfield did not live long enough to talk to Moe for his earlier podcast about depressed entertainers. More than anyone else, he embodied that strange emotional dichotomy that’s apparently very common in stand-up comedy. I was surprised at one point to hear him talk about it very explicitly and…

Not to be a grammar Nazi in a comment section, but that phrase you coined could use some hyphens. How many times do you expect someone to re-read your comment in order to figure out exactly what cluster of words the “-esque” is attached to? Or maybe you think that latter element is a whole word instead of a suffix,…
