Eastwood is actually really good at making movies about how violence reverberates and changes everyone it touches. I am not sure whether he means to make films that do this or not, but it is what he is doing. Hollywood is filled with actor that would express more liberal politics that never less give a steady stream…

I was going to write a comment about how misunderstood I think this movie is, and what a typically excellent write up this is, but you echoed 99% of what I was going to say better than I could, so I’ll just say this: I think I agree with everything you wrote except for the last paragraph. The impression I got wasn’t…

I’ve often thought of how differently, and perhaps better, this movie would have been received if it was about a fictional character. As it is, it’s really only based on the real Chris Kyle, and Eastwood sort of makes him into what he wants anyway, so he might as well have just given him a different name. Then again,…

I saw the movie and enjoyed it, even as I realized it was giving Chris Kyle a much nicer view than he deserved. I’d read a profile of him some months earlier, after he’d been killed, and he did not sound like a great guy. The reviews of the movie were positive, and while I’m as bleeding-heart liberal as they come I’m…

It’s the only fast-food place I’ve worked where we check the temps of every single heated and refrigrerated product 3 times a day, including both coolers and the freezer.

I’m going to side on the most likely scenario: Subway uses tuna or they’d just call it Tuna (smallprint “-like!” or something) or “seafood medley” or whatever. It’d be too easy to prove and WAY to exposed to legal action. I can’t imagine the upside of calling it tuna but it not being tuna would really be worth the…

Now do Classical Gas! 

Points are lost, however, for not referring to the bags of pistachios as nut sacks.

Pandora’s algorithms operate very differently from those on Spotify. ‘Discovery’ on Pandora just means tilting your feed away from songs you’ve liked and toward stuff you haven’t heard yet.

I’ve only been listening to Pandora in discovery mode for a while now. I have no idea what business implications that has.

Ironic, because most XXX films don’t use condoms.

Did you HEAR what Carrie Underwood did to her ex’s CAR!?

The generation here that grew up with Atari, I sure hope you kept your console and cartridges minty.

Steve Jobs was definitely an asshole.

A critical step - the arcade version of Space War was removed from the places it was tested because the customers found it too complicated to use and it took up floor space. So they came up with Pong, a very simple game. After the first cabinet was installed they got an angry call from the business owner that the…

In their defense, he did do that.
