I bet someone is going to pick up on this soon.

Mel Brooks (somewhat) beloved Star Wars spoof

It’s not baby red pandas but I keep this versatile picture of fox kits just for situations like these.

Ira Glass is like the flip side of Click and Clack. His radio show is riveting and brilliant just like Car Talk, but one gets the feeling that it would be insufferable to have to spend any length of time with Ira Glass the person.

Which US built, US manufacturer premium station wagon should we all buy then? I can’t think of one - what am I forgetting?

i’ll go ahead and blame the victim here.

Just one turtle, but four elephants to balance it out.

I already have Netflix. It still pisses me off that CBS is pulling this shit in the US. To the point that I’m probably not going to watch the show now simply out of principle.

What the hell? Why?
