I still live in the delusion that it’s 10 years ago and this site still has soul.

E.T. is a far worse film than Hook.

This might read like trolling but I hated that gross, messy, ugly turd when I was a child, and I still hate him now. Just like The Goonies that movie coasts on nothing bit nostalgia.

But yes, more than anything Star Trek often called pilloried as being the show where people sat around and talked instead of having exciting action,

I will go to my grave insisting that Cracked was better than MAD, even though my bias was entirely down to the fact that my local IDA only stocked the former. Well that and the old Cracked dot com was hugely formative for me, and greatly missed. Not the zombie site it is today (thanks same group of media vulterism

Sorry I use cable in my usually shorthand of ‘having TV that worked at all.’ I grew up in a valley in rural Canada: if you didn’t pay for ‘cable’ (even if that was just the basic package of channels 2-29) you got 2.5 fuzzy channels via an antenna or a satellite dish. I’m old enough to remember when Canada got proper

They were ties, weren’t they. My Pokémon cards were the parody ones they printed in Cracked magazine.

Yes, I had the off-brand off-brand cards. They were nothing but reprehnsible puns. ‘Geodud’ is the only one I can remember. Comedy gold.
