Trump would never call anyone a “nice lady”.

Those people are way too close together and some of them aren’t even wearing masks. But I guess Fox News can’t complain about that.

I think Fake Colin Robinson was Adam Lustick from Corporate.

Beat me to it! I was just going to link to Four Pounds Flour’s week of cooking recipes from this catalog. The blog (which has sadly stopped updating) also cooked historical recipes from a 19th-century tenement cookbook, vegetarian food from Kellogg’s sanitarium, etc. Lots of interesting stuff if you like historical

Most of the main characters in Fall  were from Reamde. The stories are very different, and they’re barely even the same genre. Fall makes a bit more sense if you’ve read Reamde, but if you already disliked Fall, reading Reamde isn’t going to change your mind about it.

He also explains why he doesn’t personally believe in evolution and is suspicious of gravity.

I know! I’m okay with the rat talking, because it’s a cartoon and animals talk in cartoons. And he only talks to other animals. But Linguini is supposed to be a normal human, living in the real world, and he’s got this weird marionette thing going. Pixar movies usually follow some internal logic and this doesn’t fit

I just can’t get past Remy’s magical ability to control Linguini by pulling on his hair. I know it’s necessary for the plot, but it just doesn’t make any sense, and it’s never explained or remarked on.

Plagues are common in post-apocalyptic stories. I wonder how much of our reaction to the current situation is based on fictional world-ending plagues.

“Johnathan” would also spite the correctly-spelled Jonathans of the world. (And probably some Jonathons, but nobody cares what they think.)

But then I’d have to sit through a Buddy Cole monologue. Or, even worse, Chalet 2000.

I’ve tried to show KITH to my 6-year-old. (Several members showed up on a Canadian kids’ show she likes, and I wanted to explain why I was so excited.)

It could be worse. At least it’s not a sequel to Mike Judge’s Extract.

Liquor stores have the best fruits and vegetables: Peach schnapps, applejack, limoncello, Bloody Mary mix, potato vodka, cocktail onions, everything you need.

Apparently we live near each other. 

But how will I find out who’s the plowing-est guy in the USA?

I’m amazed at how often I quote this sketch.

He actually wrote a Dracula puppet musical in real life, then used it in FSM.

I hated it.

Several people have said this. I don’t understand it at all.
