Seriously, the best Steve Jobs biopic remains Pirates of Silicon Valley. And people should check out Triumph of the Nerds, a 3-part documentary based on the same book as Pirates .

At least they got to cameo in An Adventure in Space and Time

And Scorpius totally loved Crichton.

I wasn't comparing the water movement to anything in Show me a Hero. I was comparing my mother's attitude towards the housing estate near her house to the attitudes shown to the townhouse inhabitants upon their move into the neighbourhood.

Jobs was a great businessman, that much can't be denied. But Apple's main innovation was the Apple II being an affordable (by the standards of the time) home computer. Lotus made it into a viable alternative to big mainframes and terminals when they developed 1-2-3.

It's something that's really interesting (and saddening) to behold in Ireland, because we didn't really have much ethnic diversity up until about 20 years ago. And there's a lot of ghettoisation of eastern european, african and asian communities, they have little to no political representation, and for many people -

I forgive Bender's Game a lot because of its Scary Door segment.

Take a look at the Geek and Sundry Youtube channel. They have a few shows centred on tabletop gaming with might help:

As soon as Blanche appeared behind her, I was thinking 'old-fashioned home remedy'

Interestingly, if you look at the nomination and voting numbers, Guardians is one of the only Puppy nominations that would have made it onto the ballot, and it would have won BDP without them too.

Nora Jemsin. Beale was kicked out of the Science Fiction Writers of America after he used their official twitter account to call her a half-savage. (he was serving in an official position at the time)

Two separate measures passed voting in the business meeting: 4/6 and E. Pluribus Hugo.

Muppets Tonight was worth it for the Nine Inch Snails bit alone.

When Queen wanted to name two albums after A Night at The opera and A Day at the Races, Freddie Mercury wrote to Groucho asking for permission. He had the reply framed:
