My axe and I stand with Buick of Riviera!!

Stephen Tow-LOW-BOWSKI, . . . I mean it’s written right on the screen . . .

You can’t traverse [technically, exchange information across] the fabric of space/time faster than the speed of light. But the propagation of the fabric itself into whatever preceded it has no speed limit, because space, time and speed are innate qualities of space/time itself.

Any cameos from the Crunch Enhancer? It’s a non nutritive cereal varnish.  Semi-permeable, but not osmotic.

I’ve seen a lot of movies, which means I’ve seen a lot of bad movies.  They were all bad for their own reasons.  But no movie has made me as ANGRY, enraged at the squandered opportunity, as Bonfire of the Vanities.  Like if Vanilla Ice secured the exclusive rights to a previously undiscovered Mozart symphony and…

You serious?  They just told you that a moment ago. . . 

That’s a bit of a tautology because anything humorous can be interpreted as ‘mean’ to someone.  It might be yourself [self-deprecating].  It might be someone you think is sorely deserving.  Humor is a safe way to process things that might be painful in other frames.  The metric isn’t whether is has a capacity to be…

Was clutch supposed to be crutch?

The ‘chicken sexing snake oil salesman’s’ hair and general vibe had me spending so much time wondering ‘that’s not Tim Minchin, is it? Looks like Tim Minchin, but clearly it’s not . . . Who is that, if not Tim Minchin,’ that it totally eluded me that it was Jon Daly.

The bigger problem than replacing aging camaraderie, or chemistry, or wit or whatever is two-fold. For the produced segments, most all of the great stories of motorpsort have been told [Senna, Group B, Ford-v-Ferrari, etc]. Best you can hope for is smaller ‘hey, didya know’ segments on the inside stories of the…

Sorry . . . 

Getting as much or more Lodge 49 vibes.

Is it weird that, while reading this article, multiple birds flew into my office window.

Ironic, this latest kerfuffle erupts, and I’m listening to Brittany Howard and Kelly Clarkson duet.  Relevant only to suggest that, whatever the drama, it’s likely not simply about how everyone hates larger women who are talented singers.

Seems like they heaped on extra bits and chunks of comedic premise to lampshade that the central premise of gym shorts and casual seating arrangements making for awkward social interaction was recycled from Friends of 20 years ago.

It’s just people being purposeful about ‘workflow’ when assigning counter space.  I never thought of it in terms of ‘beverage station’ but, being cranky in the morning, I have a very particular setup with my toaster, espresso machine, grinder, frother and autogrind drip brewer lined up neatly, and the attendant…

I would be interested to see the correlation between feelings about sports compared to opinions on improv versus standup, or jam bands versus symphonies, or jazz versus . . . I hope you get the point. Cinema and sports share the allure of seeing something new and unexpected. I’ve long subscribed to the notion that the…

THIS is the essence of ‘cancel culture.’  It’s not the metric of whether someone ACTUALLY suffers, or ACTUALLY disappears penniless.  That is the aspiration.  The culture of THAT ASPIRATION is the ‘culture’ of ‘cancel.’  No matter how much time passes, no matter the setting, if you see a mention of an enemy, insert…
