Krispy Kreme had a brief run here in Canada, where they somehow managed to sell worse doughnuts than Tim Horton, a feat not previously thought possible in the physics of food science.

Since their demise Tim Hortons learned from their success and lowered their standards once more, this time by eliminating kitchens from…

The late Leisure Suit Larry games are my gold standard for games that are so unfunny they do you active harm.

You have no idea how long I - an ardent fan of everything Myst (except, obviously, the fifth one) - have wanted to see Pyst. Not because I thought it would be good, but the historian in me dreamed it would one day surface.

Seriously, though, Pyst makers - Atrus isn’t a king, and never terms himself as such. Indeed,…

That’s not tru! He got to die once! And have the least engaging screen romance since... hrmm... From Justin to Kelly?

Iger has been one of the most important people at Disney for two decades, I think it’s very fair to direct your ire at him.

Good theme songs seem to have been taken out and shot some time in the last ten years, along with title sequences more interesting than symbolic imagery with heavy post-processing.

I want to blame Daredevil for being the locus point for this phenomenon but I think it may just be the first one I noticed rather than the…

At least Renner has screen presence, unlike Bettany who seems to be trying to create the first Superhero ever played by drywall.

“Jeremy Renner—worst Avenger”

Now now, let’s not be too hasty - there’s some real competition at the bottom of that barrel. Vision. Scarlet Witch. Evangeline Lily.

“Pullman’s thematic ambition, grasp of pacing, and deftness with character are all baffling abandoned by the time The Amber Spyglass rolls around, turning one of the most important series of its age into a rambling, digressive, boring, didactically exhausting, lurching mess really if you love The Golden Compass stop…

If we’re lucky they’ll focus so much on The Golden Compass that years will pass and the show will be cancelled after eight great seasons having never had to adapt a single shit-drenched page of The Amber Spyglass.

Not a tyrant, merely the most ineffectual leader in history, who did nothing while everything crumbled around him until he was pushed out another window.

NO SPRINGS

I just watched Evangelion, and subsequently End of Evangelion, for the first time in my thirty years the last three days.

Rarely have such twisted visuals been tied to such meaningless, hollow, blithering nonsense and first-year philosophy insights. Had the creator been well-adjusted, maybe on some decent medication to…

The answer is none, because leaf blowers are noise polluters with no valid function that cannot be easily replaced with equipment less offensive to everyone around you, not to mention your own physical health.

Leaf Blower: The Official Rake of Garbage People

The answer is none, because leaf blowers are noise polluters with no valid function that cannot be easily replaced…

All I can think of is ‘that must look like total shit on an operations admiral.’

Might work with Sciences Blue, though.

If Disney wants to put a couple rounds in The Crystal planet or The Courtship of Princess Leia or the entirety of the Yuuzhan Vong saga I’m all for it.

Things turn around for Darius once he’s befriended by Sohrab, the kid next door who teaches him “the values of life through soccer, food, and secret rooftop conversations.”

This book sounds awful. Where’s the book where Darius’ tormentors learn that lessons that actually its real goddamn shitty to socially isolate…

Same here, which is why these days I keep the Epic browser on standby. It’s got a little proxy button up in the top corner and while I wouldn’t recommend it for doing Elite Haxxor Raid Sessions on banks, it’s super useful to watch region-locked content in seconds (though I’ve yet to try and see if it works for…

THERE’S NOTHING TO TRACK

HERMIT LIFESTYLE IS PRETTY CONSISTENT
