I unironically read that in Teddy’s voice, and I’m not sure why.

I just found out about this today completely by accident while grabbing lunch at Arby’s. I tried to order one but they were already out for the day.

No, there’s going to be a fifth season that is the actual, for-real, final season. The problem is that the showrunners and press keep talking about the ‘final season’ and ‘Season 4' in the same breath as talking about the final episodes of season 4 without clarifying, and it’s all jumbled. Season 4 being split into…

Of course, with Ralphs/Kroger, also make sure you actually do have to buy the number of items required. There’s a difference between “4 for $10 with card” and “$2.50 each when you buy four” on the shelf price tags, emphasis mine. The former usually has the fine print clarifying it just means “$2.50 each with card,”…

I’m not too terribly invested in the trial because quite frankly they both sound like messy, awful people, but this article (plus the report from Vice about how much money the Daily Wire has spent targeting her on Facebook and Instagram) brings to mind a comment someone in show business made on Twitter right when this…

Fair enough. I personally think it might be worth finding space for a line saying as such in a review, especially given that Ash appears in DbD, but that’s useful to know.

Fair enough. I think that still should be something worth mentioning at least as a point of comparison -- especially since, y’know, Ash also appears in DbD.

I’ve always had a soft spot for the holodeck scene, when they create the virtual teenagers to distract him. It’s both goofy but makes a weird sort of sense that it works.

Is there any particular reason why the review makes sure to mention Friday the 13th, Left 4 Dead, and Evolve, but at no point references Dead by Daylight? For a lot of people, I think that’d be the more useful point of comparison. It’d be like if someone put out a platformer where you play an electrician who fights, I…

I recently discovered in my local Asian grocery that you can actually buy bottles of the sauce, too. They have it in regular, 2x, and ‘carbonara.’

Yeah, there’s a company here in the States called Vite Ramen that makes a pretty nutritious instant ramen, but even then the sodium content in a serving is 33% RDV. (It used to be lower, but they were revising their recipe and learned that basically everyone was adding salt to it anyways so they stopped dialing it…

I like the curry, but I like the ‘carbonara’ more. It’s not as hot, but I enjoy the flavor.

Well, of course he didn’t need as much as Abrams. Empty puzzle boxes don’t come cheap.

I think Eternals suffered less from coming out at the wrong time and more from higher expectations due to a combination of the material it was tackling, higher standards for the franchise in general at this point, and Chloe Zhao directing. Like, everybody goes on about the Rotten Tomatoes score, but there is no way…

Something I’ve seen a few times around here and am surprised isn’t more common is a second menu board, placed to be accessible to the car behind one at the speaker.

Thank you for all your work. Not to besmirch your many fine colleagues, but the Random Roles interviews have always consistently been my favorite thing about the A.V. Club.

I could be wrong, but I think Cento removed the DOP label a while ago, insisting that it’s become harder and more expensive to get the authentic seal and you should take their word for it that it’s the only reason they have it. Instead they replaced it with that ‘Find your Field’ website that doesn’t actually work…

Ah, I miss my friendly neighborhood bookstore coffee shop. Well, what was then my FNBCS, I haven’t lived in that neighborhood in a while now. This place closed in the mid-00's (didn’t go broke or anything, but the owner wanted to shift his focus to going back to school and working on his music), and I’ve yet to find…

I used to do Blue Apron for a while, but dropped them because their selection at the time sucked (six meals to pick from, and you were limited in configurations) and I realized one day that for something 6-8 weeks straight, there was something wrong with an ingredient in the box literally every week. I switched to…

I wonder how often people have the opposite reaction, where they don’t like a regional place and groan at the thought of having to see it everywhere. (Well, people besides me, I’ve had that reaction before.)
