Truth be told, it is absolutely incredible the Carrie Buck story isn't more widely known.

Is nothing not sacred?!

It kinda depresses me that while Scott has demonstrated himself perfectly capable of making other kinds of films, he's apparently committed the remainder of his career to a bankable franchise. He's Lucased himself, basically.

Let me charitable and say that these people are struggling to come to terms with extremely difficult truths. Science tells us that the Earth is incredibly vast, incredibly ancient, and incredibly rich with possibility; the Universe it inhabits is all of those things times infinity. These are proportions even great…

The Moonlight joke here is so obvious I'm surprised it wasn't in the article.

Always nice to learn a few new isms.

I'm ready to see more boring black women portrayed on screen.

It's always the how that intrigues me with you conspiracy theorists, almost as much as the why. Forget about NASA scientists for a second; I could name upwards of fifty different civilian industries that would have to be deeply committed to this "hoax." For example, every single airline in every single country,…

I remember a pictograph from The Onion from about 15 years ago—back when they had a print edition and they did this sort of thing—that asked What Pornography Are We Reading This Week?

But they're just looking for answers! A very specific set of answers that validates their questionable worth as human beings!

The logic Event Horizon of any conspiracy theory is the phrase "they're just doing that to make US look crazy." I've seen people say that, and when you reach that point of delusion, there's no coming back.

Don't forget:

Doesn't this conspiracy also mean that everyone working for every airline in the entire world is in on it as well?

Nah, he wouldn't have reported it. You know these folks get off on feeling "persecuted."

And before you ask, yes I DID cut myself on that edge.

Riiiiight. Like it's really believable that there's some huge overarching conspiracy that's been going on for millennia, involving most world governments throughout history, collecting untold billions of dollars while handing the hoi polloi fiction after fiction.

Eh, most of those animals were difficult to identify—just generic long-ears-and-snout mammals. For instance, what even was that butler? Some kind of weasel?

I remember that show, and I always thought it was implied that Taz was profoundly autistic.

When I watched the original cartoon, it was such a difficult thing for me to get my head around that Donald didn't talk funny because he's a duck—as it turns out, even other ducks found him borderline incomprehensible.

AND apparently a piece of the set fell down and nearly crushed a bunch of people in a pre-telecast rehearsal.
