Last I checked, no one was being mandated to go to Disneyworld, let alone spend their money there. Or spend at Star Wars somethingsomething.

For you, maybe. Not everyone is like you. The sooner you realize that, the better off you’ll be. 

It sounds kinda fun. And is $5,000 that much money for a once-in-a-lifetime vacation? If I saved and split the cost with a perpetually-nonexistent-but-gainfully-employed significant other, it doesn’t seem like that much of a stretch. And I don’t make all that much.

So don't like movies...with movie stars in them? 

He’s God’s publicist.

She’s a national treasure.

If O Brother’s relation to the Odyssey is any indication, loose may be an understatement.

Since season 2 the show has basically been one long video of a woman being raped while “THIS IS MY FIGHT SONG” blares on in the background. Laziest shit I’ve seen on “premiere TV.” Best eps have nothing to do with the main characters really.

Also, and I’ll be in the minority here, but the flashbacks to pre-collapse…

Also... Mad Men and West Wing won lots of Emmys.

Probably because it’s weird and kind of terrible to blame a single person (who is only working in front of the camera) for an entire show losing.

The show won eight Emmys during its first season, at the height of its popularity.

Myles, pay no attention to these folks. They’re all just fanboys/girls incapable of reading even the mildest criticism of a show they refuse to find any fault with regardless of what a steaming pile of trash this episode was.

This episode is not what a bottle episode is.

By 1968, the year in which this episode is set, she had competed against at least 59 male chess players (28 of them simultaneously in one game), including at least ten Grandmasters of that time, including Dragolyub Velimirovich, Svetozar Gligoric, Paul Keres, Bojan Kurajica, Boris Spassky, Viswanathan Anand and…

Exactly.  I don’t want to cheat the system, but I am a father with two young children.  I often can only squeeze in small periods of play, and even those are constantly interrupted.  

We don’t need to save. REAL Gamerz don’t let real life ever interrupt multiple-hour play sessions. Kids, family, jobs, dinner, chores, sleep, medical issues...none of that exists in the GAME ZONE.

Some of us just don’t like runny yolks Karen

Stop saying you like hardboiled eggs. You don’t. You like firmer soft-boiled eggs. You’re objectively wrong in your definition (although only subjectively wrong is your weird and awful preference). ;)
