    a big part of reggie's shtick is blatantly not caring about whatever he's involved in. it's funny sometimes and other times actually seems like it crosses the line into just being dickish. PFT just did a little sit-down with him for that speakeasy web show and it definitely felt like it got into the latter territory,

    pretty sure i found some pieces!

    i'm an outlier in that i love trouble in dreams pretty much the same as his other albums, but either way you should seek out kaputt. some of his best songs (including his GOAT in my opinion) are on that album

    and how about the chorus to "testament to youth in verse" where he just starts quoting wittgenstein

    "ok, fine, even the sky looks like wine!"

    and soon after:

    so excited for this album! he's only gotten better, to me, and i love his stuff all the way back to the early days. caught him live last summer, and:
    - he was actually pretty coherent and happy, unlike past shows
    - he played a great unreleased song called "Town Square" that I hope will be on this album

    What did he do in the Beta Band??

    you just earned yourself a little golf clap, d'angelo.

    talk about mission drift. she really is the george w bush of this show.

    can someone remind me why danaerys doesn't just march on king's landing at this point? does she not know that tywin is dead? because it really seems like nobody else in westeros has the means to stop her anymore, between the unsullied and her (admittedly difficult to control) dragons.

    And we're worried that a-list late night stars are going to get their feelings hurt by tone? Fact is, this dude is kind of right, and who gives a shit about Jimmy Fallon's feelings.

    god damn the original Deus Ex really is just GOAT. nothing else comes close

    Very personal songs/albums are the exception, not the rule, with Mountain Goats. His best work (Coroners Gambit, All Hail West Texas, Tallahassee, We Shall All Be Healed) is not personal in any direct way.

    Well now you know how I feel after reading this comment.

    That romantic twist hadn't occurred to me until I read this but now I really hope it happens. Would be awesome to see Daryl defy the odds and go down in an American Beauty-esque subplot rather than at the hands of zombies.

    Well, maybe I misunderstood the blocking in the scene, but he shoots Glenn from no more than 10-20 feet away it seems. I seem to even remember that he then runs up on Glenn's body? Either way, why not just close the distance and put one more bullet in him? Just seemed really really contrived.

    Review didn't get there so let me just say that the Glenn forest scenes were exceptionally stupid and random, even grading on the low curve of this show.

    Jay has done the podcast rounds and given some of the backstory, on Comedy Bang Bang I think. The short version is that there isn't really a "decline" story because there isn't a rise story to begin with. These dudes went to college together, were not really involved in the comedy scene, made a couple of movies—one of

    yep, definitely noticed this as well
