Part of me is deeply impressed with your thoughtful, insightful analysis of a decades-long cultural phenomenon. But the part of me that grew up in the early 80s wants you to stop being mean to Snoopy.

...but this is the whole point of Nascar, right? How can people be surprised when this shit happens? And if you go to see Nascar, isn’t it fair if you get caught up in the chaos your money is helping to fund?

I had a roommate once — with an obvious drinking problem matched only by his too lazy to work problem — who went on a tear through my baking cabinet one night like this. Drank all the vanilla, peppermint extract, lemon extract, etc. Needless to say, he wasn't my roommate long.

More for me, then.

I bet you have to pay extra for the model. :(

Even as far back as the 1600s, some people could see how unfair accusations of witchcraft were for women, especially the poor ones who had no societal options for help once accused. It even shows up as a plot point in plays like The Witch of Edmonton, where Mother Sawyer makes a deal with the Devil because whatever…

Adie may have committed suicide in prison, which was considered to be a great crime against god (possibly worse than being a witch?)

"It got me thinking, 'what can I sent to him' which turned to 'what is a really long book', which ended with me sending him Macbeth."

Isn't that the same schtick most religions have been throwing around for millennia: you don't /really/ have to die, if you make this sacrifice/believe in this god/drink this magic blood potion? Isn't this changing the mechanics rather than the message?

Wait, Madame Vastra lives on Paternoster Row? Must be difficult with the Cybermen clomping around there all the time.

Straight-washing = perfect term. (I don't think we can really call anyone pre-1869 or so "gay" or "homosexual", since than would be an anachronistic term, but it's pretty clear Leo has some same-sex desire going on.)

Wait, if it's in Poland, why are they using GBP? Or is it just badly translated and the equivalent of 200 GBP was stolen by the cat?

Why do they all look like Bobby Hill?

Just from the picture, it doesn't look like there's a lot of characters. Their difficulty in translation may be because it isn't a full-blown writing system yet, and there's just not enough information in the script for any kind of translation. But I don't know anything about Elamite, proto- or otherwise, and maybe…

Is it just me, or does George look disturbingly like L. Ron Hubbard in this? (Don't get me wrong, if Martin starts a new whack-job "religion", I'd probably join.)

Dude, this is /clearly/ a mutant sheep. Who knows what other creepy, mutant-sheep powers it has? The cameraman was wise to keep his distance but not so to make positive, mutton-centric comments. I say boldly: I, for one, am not crazy about mutton, O new twisty-headed mutant sheep overlord.

Is /no one/ else concerned that they might find pockets of Stahlman's Gas and devolve into ape men? Did Doctor Who teach us nothing?!

You load 16 tons of dead rat and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt.

No, see, there are things babies can't handle. Whiskey? Awesome, yet not for babies. Blow? Awesome, but not for babies. This is clearly awesome, yet perhaps not for babies.
