My favorite feature of small towns: regional franchises.

Also makes me wonder if they wrote the Skrulls into the earlier scripts before double-checking if the Skrulls fell under the X-Men/F4 or Avengers character rights. Or if they existed in the same legal gray area as Scarlet Witch & Quicksilver, maybe Fox didn’t want to push the issue in the midst of Disney’s proposed…

This. My uncle gave me his old Apple 2 in the mid-80's when I was 5-6, along with a ton of old games. By the time I had my first formal typing instruction in junior high, I was already 8+ years into my hunt & peck style, and far faster than my classmates. At my peak (in my early 20's), I could hunt & peck at 115 wpm…

From the Ozarks down, at least.

It should. It’s basically the same material as any other umbrella, just smaller (usually just under 3ft diameter, so big enough to cover the baby but small enough that the edges don’t hit the parent in the face).

Agree. I read the headline and thought we were going to get a tip of how to only search for 1-day delivery items or something.

I agree. The outdoors are going to be prohibitively toxic soon enough anyway, so we might as well start training our youth to fear the sun.

This. Even better than a travel umbrella is to just get a kids’ umbrella which is naturally smaller and can be found at Walmart or Target for under $10. Use zip-ties to mount it to the stroller however you’d like.

Fort Dodge is his home territory, and a receptive audience to his brand of racist bullshit (i.e. a largely blue-collar small city that took a huge economic hit in the early 80's and has been losing population for 3 decades because of the lack of opportunities). 

It kinda annoys me that J.J. Abrams is always given full credit whenever Cloverfield is discussed, as though he wrote or directed it himself. Matt Reeves and Drew Goddard deserve most of the credit for the finished product. Abrams was just the film’s hype man.

No, Cicada Killers. Bigger, louder, scarier...but also nicer. You pretty much have to be trying to get one to sting you before they will bother you. But that fact doesn’t help when they buzz past your head and it sounds like a low-flying airplane is playing chicken with you.

Even when the cicadas come out, I rarely get the chance to see any because the ground beneath my back patio is home to several dens of these jerks.

Glad I’m not the only one who remembers that there were 2 different crystal Pepsi versions, “Crystal Pepsi”, and then just”Crystal”, the citrus one released a year later.

This was my exposure to it. I loved Coke 2. Then one day it was gone, and I, still but a wee child, did not understand why.

Pro Tip: collect empty plastic ice cream buckets (or similar, like cookie dough and potato salad tubs) and the lids. Just keep ‘em in the back of a closet somewhere. So whenever a body-fluid related cleaning matter comes up, you can use it as a vomit bucket or soiled-paper towel receptacle. Then slap the lid on it and…

To be fair, gator attack is the risk you take whenever you enter Florida. It’s not exclusive to Disney. See also: sunburn, alcohol poisoning, addiction-driven amateur porn career.

Who is Conan O’Brien, and why is she so sad?

Well, that what I do, and...it’s horrible. Seriously, I wouldn’t do this to my enemies.

We’ll need a team of super virile men scoring around the clock. I’ll do my part. 

I take it you’ve forgotten that Disney/Marvel now owns the rights to use both Doctor Doom AND Galactus?
