I get it. If you had not been starving for real Star Wars stories for nearly 20 years post-ROTJ, I can see the rabidness of original fans and their negative reactions to the prequels being a turnoff, especially if you liked them. I can see that building resentment. To you they were perfectly good, entertaining movies.…

I don’t know what’s funnier: the photo of the bears doing it, or that the photographer’s name is Bence MATE.

I’d bet a week’s worth of M&Ms that Donald Trump is not the actual author of that “congratulatory” tweet.

ALL HAIL

“Doctor said you gon’ DIE.”

Yyyyyeah, I’d do some reading up on that, then. I have an equatorial mount and I wish I had an altazimuth instead, primarily because it’s a low-end no-computers telescope that’s very hard to get oriented correctly. Theoretically it does make following an object easier as it moves, but in practice I’ve found it…

2 quick corrections:

Get tickets in advance for Independence Hall. Also it’s a federally controlled facility so they do not allow weapons of any kind, i.e. pocketknives. It’s similar to TSA rules and you will have to walk through a metal detector. So if you carry a knife in your pocket on your keychain like I always do, leave it at your…

In my experience, the ease of pointing a telescope depends on the kind of mount you ordered. If you got an altazimuth mount (i.e. you can adjust the telescope vertically up and down, and spin it around horizontally) then it is easier to find and manually track objects. You do have to *manually* track them with…

I got this problem several times. The only time it came back with any results was when I used my first name only (which was useless, as it returned about 86000 results) . After that, it quit working even for common first names I tried.

I think TV invented this decades ago: “spinoff”

Shields. SHIELDS!

I hope the Flash gets more interesting in the movie, because the trailers make me hate him a lot.

No, no, no.

TL;DR

I actually scrolled up to confirm whether or not this article was posted on April 1.

You would not believe just how hard your post hit me.

I have a big, big problem with the fetishization of the Punisher symbol due to American Sniper for reasons I can’t quite put into words this morning. I guess it comes across as jingoistic and threatening. It represents willingness to use brutality. Skull stickers don’t honor Chris Kyle as an American, they idolize…

Yes, this. She looked more like a 3-d projection than a corporeal body. I spent a few seconds even trying to figure out if they’d ripped it directly from the original movie, dialog and all. It was quite impressive how they made it look both vintage and stunningly real at the same time.
