For some reason, I thought they didn’t show the wound. My bad.

Technically, they never showed his body...

It wasn’t mentioned in the episode, but Hero and Yorick’s father is an English professor focused on Shakespeare, hence their names.

That’s going to be hilarious. The lobbying from the beef industry trying to keep plant-based burgers from being labeled “burgers” is so absurd and ridiculous.

Bravo

It’s hilarious because I can’t tell you how many women have height requirements in their dating profiles. It’s best when they have some very unrealistic requirement like “no guys under 6'4.”

Peter David’s New Frontier novels establish that Number One is incredibly long-lived and Robin Lefler’s mother. In one of the later novels, she’s injured and her mind is transferred into the ship’s computer, as a nod to Majel Barrett’s role as the computer voice. There’s also a hint that she’s related to Lwaxana Troi.…

I swear I recognized the poacher’s voice, but I couldn’t place it.

Dried cherries reconstituted with bourbon (or vodka) are fantastic. And simple is, well, simple, so there’s no reason not to make it. Two parts raw sugar to one part boiling water and the resulting syrup is shelf stable.

“they might cost around $2 more than regular nuggets”

I lied in my previous comment— spend the cash and get a beautiful, well-crafted knife. Keep a whetstone handy and sharpen it regularly so you have something to cut fruit (fresh juice in cocktails makes a huge difference) and make garnishes. I bought a peeler specifically for my home bar and threw it in a kitchen…

Their small batch (or single barrel, I don’t recall which we briefly had at my last job) is solid. I’m partial to Four Roses small batch, if I’m going for a bourbon. My go-to whiskey is usually Irish— the Jameson Caskmates are delicious— though I rarely use those in a cocktail. I’m also a sucker for Japanese whisky,…

It’s not like it’s unprecedented; Chekov and Sulu and Uhura stayed in the same damn job for, what, thirty years?

A decent bottle of whiskey. Nothing too expensive, but not bottom shelf. You want something that will come through in a cocktail and not be overpowered by other ingredients, but not so pricey that making an old fashioned or Manhattan or whatever feels like a waste of a pour.

One of the illustrations of the dragon early in the film definitely looked like Fin Fang Foom.

Fuck me, I was trying to place her the entire episode!

I assumed it was dubbed, since the first time the Cloak of Duplication was used, Kristen Schaal’s voice came out of Nandor #2's mouth. Lazlo’s voice was the only scene where I was lost; it definitely didn’t sound like Lazlo or Nandor, unlike the other three duplicate scenes. Maybe it was a combination of an attempted…

Fun Fact: Magneto’s real name in the comics for years was Magnus. It wasn’t until the mid-90s it was revealed to be Erik Lensherr. The Max Eisenhardt name didn’t come around until a bit over ten years ago. It’s weird that they went with a retcon that’s rarely mentioned when this show has mentioned minor (or at least…

Ten bucks says the burger had flavor and wasn’t some salty, drenched in ketchup, fast food-style crap.

My apartment before I bought my house was $600 a month. No utilities included. My mortgage, with my property tax and homeowner’s insurance included, is about $640. My house is obviously larger, has a yard and is in much better condition— my previous landlord is an actual garbage person.
