It never lived up to Frank Darabont's original draft.

I missed last week's WAYPTW as I was on holiday, which was all very nice but MOST IMPORTANTLY while I was on holiday I met a grey, husky-looking dog with heterochromatic eyes! Though this one had a blue/grey right eye and brown left eye. I decided against asking the owner whether it was effectively bulletproof, as…

This explains a lot.

Warren Zevon's The Hockey Song

UP THE IRONS!

Bowie stole that Andy Warhol riff off Metallica.

I suppose maybe one could hire a sex worker as a babysitter.

Very nice. One of these years I'll get around to listening to the BBC radio adaptation. (A re-listen I suppose, though I was a wee nipper when I last heard it).

As rhyming couplets go, I'm not sure whether I think "I'm so dumb / She's a lesbian" is brilliant, terrible, brilliantly terrible or terribly brilliant.

Oooh! I only have Crackle. I should look into that.

Weezer - Pinkerton
Picked it up over the weekend, having never listened to this one before. Really enjoying it. For all it has a reputation for being darker and more introspective than the Blue Album, I’m not sure that’s any more than just a result the garagey production and the first two songs sounding a bit like…

I'm finding everything about the SPAM ads funny, right down to the closed comments because they know exactly what we'd be like.

"How do we play around with opening up our relationship as parents of a 1-year-old? We barely have enough time or enough sleep to keep our own relationship juicy."

I didn't listen to the podcast (nor, indeed, any podcast ever), but maybe this just lost some contextualising in SheepLauncher's write-up. I mean, a bit of "just be careful about what you're getting into" seems reasonable enough, but as written it seems a bit "I've got my liberation so you can all fuck off".

They're depressingly widespread. We were fortunate enough for it not to happen to us, but we'd like a second lurkling and at the tail end of our 30s, miscarriages are a fairly high risk.

Thanks. It's the time commitment rather than the cash outlay that does it in for me though. (I mean, even before getting the game I'd have to get a PS4 first).

I like your version of this joke better.

So… not recommended then?
