Always listen to your inner Leslie Knopf voice. ALWAYS. Especially when she's telling you to go get waffles. Which again, is ALWAYS. I guess what I am saying is go eat waffles, it will make life a little bit better. In closing, um...waffles? I guess?

Sometimes Marvel does so well, when I read things like the Young Avengers or the new Ms Marvel they make me very happy and can legitimately bring a tear to my eye as I think about how far we have come by way of representation in comics, not only in who is there but also in how they are presented. Then something like

In many a book store the only customers subject to more negative judgement than someone buying a Nicolas Sparks book (any nicolas sparks book) and the people who can't be bothered to actually know the the title of the book they are looking for (or the author, or what it's about...) is someone buying Atlas Shrugged. I

Agreed. I had lurked on the gawker family of sites for years but only started commenting once the grays system was dead and gone because prior to that it felt like only the "cool kids" ever seemed to get thier comments un-grayed. For me, the comments only appearing un-gray after the approval by an old guard

I don't know, I just Kant believe it is that much of threat.

I had the great philosophy 101 prof freshman year who would spend 2 classes talking about a school of philosophy, he'd explain it and the way he constructed his arguments would build it up to be this wonderful ideology that seemed to hold all of life's answers. Then he's spend the next 2 classes tearing that shit down

Oh, I have seen the original film and I agree both is and Cook are amazing but for me there was just something about how she used the socially constructed idea of feminine emotional weakness and sensitivity to run circles around Elliot and have him end up apologizing to her even though she is clearly fucking with him

Not a popular choice but for sheer affable sadism I have to go with this one. She was just so friendly as she took every single one of his dreams and twisted them into horrible nightmares. And then she's give him the pouty sad eyes and he would end up apologizing to her. That? Takes skill.

His life was perfect and he was happy. Sniff....

All the creepy. Then they ate the super nice principle.

Oddly enough these covers now make we wonder what Wonder Woman and Aquaman would be like as a couple. Have they ever hooked up in the DCU?

Agreed.

Instead of alternate characters can we pick alternate universes? Because the worlds of My Heart Will Go On (Married Bobby and Ellen FTW!) and The French Mistake were amazing. Hell, throw in It's a Horrible Life as well. I love me some Dean as a well adjusted, master cleansing, Project Runway watching ad exec hunting

I was always fond of Possessed by Hyena Spirit Alpha Xander. All the evil badass with none of the game face. I feel game face is a look only evil Willow, Spike, and Dru, could ever effectively pull off. Oh and Mr Trick, but he only lasted a handful of episodes, if that.

Poor Mattie Blue Eyes. His only super power is that everyone either likes him or wants to bang him, so he has a giant target on his ass for every evil thing that wanders through Mystic Falls and wants to manipulate people. Well that and being miserable.

Oh god. You had to quote it... I am going to go look at kitten gifs for an hour or so now to stop the sadness spiral.

It's funny you should bring up Gunn, because they explored that very trope with him in the last season when he got his brain "up graded".

Just for fun I am going with a random dark horse candidate for Peter Quill's dad and calling it as Adam Warlock. Crazy as it sounds, I do have a few things to back me up. Just a few, the rest is pure speculation and fan born crazy on my part.

Sorry! I replied to the wrong comment!

I have a stupid question. I have not seen either of the new Spider-Man movies (Sadly Andrew Garfield has a face that makes me want to punch it, which cuts into my ability to enjoy any movie he is in), but from what I have heard the reboot of the franchise has not yet done the Venom origin with Peter in black suit, so
