A lot of people overestimate the fraction of Florida that will go under due to the global warming. With as little as two more feet of rise, Miami is doomed, as well as the millionaires’s luxurious waterfront enclaves on the barrier islands along the Atlantic and the Gulf. But, for example, my house, only four miles…

nailed it

Fair point. But the Venn diagram circles concerning the knowledge of blerds and the knowledge of the general populace are far from concentric. ;-)

Paramount Pictures owes her a major debt and should be paying the money to clear things up with her estate and living status, medical bills, etc.

That is a “little known fact” among a certain unmelaninated people. The original blerds have *always* known.

Damn it. All the best to Ms. Nichols, who deserves peace and respect in her twilight.

Ran into her in the Red Carpet Club in Denver many years ago. She was so kind and sweet to chat with. Absolutely a wonderful woman.

I attended an anime convention that also had a high school volleyball tournament and a wedding convention going on in the adjacent halls. It looked so weird in the lobby all weekend

What I kind of find amusing as well is that I don’t play Tekken or any other fighting games, but just from years of gaming, I perfectly understood exactly what that player was generally saying. It made sense to me. It’s nice that gaming culture gives you a kind of general fluency with franchises/genres you don’t…

i remember at evo a few years ago, the hotel was hosting an elvis convention at the same time. it was really cool talking to older folks in fake pompadours about our separate hobbies in the elevators. nice people.

It’s like when two conventions are scheduled at the same time, so you’ve got the Masquerade LARPers and the Organization of Cardiovascular Surgeons hanging out in the lobby together.  Delightful.

Yuuup.  that’s the problem with the alt-right: They truly believe that digging out old-ass conservative talking points is edgy and crazy.  

And the enthusiasm they all have when they say this nonsense to you, like they came up with a brand new idea that none of their other WalMart store brand, Great Value racist whites had ever thought of before.

Solid A- joke, but a C+ on delivery, and a solid D just because of the rimshot

Gave you a star begrudgingly.  next time focus group it.

I am going to need a 15 minute apology video posted to Twitch for that.

Weak

Starred for the effort. Maybe workshop it though.
