Random crackpot theory (that I don’t actually believe) just to stir the pot: He’s not playing Stephen Strange, but Tony Stark from the universe seen in What If...? Vol. 1, issue 113, where Stark became the Sorcerer Supreme instead of Strange.

Toaster ovens put out a great and consistent piece of toast

I don’t have a personal story about Kevin Smith to share as such, but a good friend of mine passed away a few years ago, and another friend of his tweeted at Kevin that our friend’s last social media post was a screenshot of Kevin having Liked a tweet he made about listening to Hollywood Babble-On in the hospital,…

Yeah, getting a refund through the app, when they offer one, is entirely automatic and mechanical as far as I know. Sounds like the Chipotle app is one that allows for that sort of thing.

I got a very ‘Stanley Ipkiss’ vibe from Steven, both in the writing and in the performance. Not a complaint, just an observation. It’s actually kind of fitting, when you think about it.

I’ve been in places that served a peanut butter burger (and now I’m thinking about a local burger joint that closed right at the start of the pandemic and I’m sad now), but honestly never gave any thought to trying one. I can definitely see how it can be good, but usually if I’m in the mood for a burger there’s…

I foresee one of two possibilities for Paul Rudd at Conan’s funeral.

Also, “evolved” is hard to work into a rhyming slogan used to mock companies that make token efforts to be progressive.

Nice! Normally I’d rather not bother an employee at all, if I can help it. Just in this case, I was picking the drink up at the drive-thru, only to discover they didn’t know what I was talking about, and then I checked the app and realized my mistake.

Sometimes, depending on the timing of things and the chain in question, the employees might give you a break if you make a mistake in the app. Once I went to pick up a drink from Starbucks only to find out I’d sent my order to another location altogether — and while the ‘correct’ one wasn’t too far out of my way, this…

While not specifically that, I’ve had snafus where I went to cook two parts of a dish simultaneously, only to discover too late that I needed to finish one first and add part of it to the second, and yeah.

If they were clever enough to pre-plan this, then they would have been clever enough to get someone even tangentially connected to the Bond films to introduce the tribute. The only way staging this makes sense is if someone looked at the plans for the show, saw it was crap, and decided that convincing Will Smith to…

A lot of anecdotal evidence suggests it’s not even about viewership, it’s about getting more subscribers. Netflix doesn’t care if 80% of their customers watch a thing, if that 80% represents the same number of people it did two weeks ago.

It needs to bring in more new subscribers than are physically possible, due to the fact that pretty much everyone who might ever want a Netflix account already has one.

(At this point, it’s worth noting that Moon Knight is generally referred to as having dissociative identity disorder, a very real condition that a violent superhero story may not be the most well-equipped to handle with grace and sensitivity. If Disney wants to suggest that Moon Knight has dissociative identity…

Mr. Knight is weird. I’m admittedly slightly behind on the comics so maybe they’ve changed this, but I know in the arc where he first appeared that persona wasn’t a separate identity but an alternate costume Marc/Moon Knight wore when interacting with the cops. This is because, to quote the first issue of that run,…

Apparently the accent is entirely Oscar Issac’s creation.

I’m actually leaning a little towards Violent J in this one, partially because that while I do think he’s had a good time doing so, he’s spent time, money, and energy getting involved in something that’s not normally his scene, whereas Jamie Lee would probably be doing this anyways.

I can definitely see the argument for Sonic, since it’s also considerably more widespread than White Castle location-wise.
