“I’m not going to live in fear of Bob.”

Crystal sauce is the version of Tabasco that you can use as a condiment.

As it turns out, we have a great deal of information on the effects of ionizing radiation on insects. The short version is “They laugh it off.” All other things being equal, it’s a big threat to large, long-lived organisms like us, whales, and trees, but considerably less so to little short-lived things.

Teeny tiny iodine pills?

Did they not learn how to duck under their desks? 

Oh, so the guy who was in a movie about killer ants, aliens, and Nazis all mixed together is complaining about goddamned *Blade Runner*?

He is the only human known to have given 1/1 000 000th of a shit. Most people can’t mange giving so little of a shit with such accuracy.

I am floored to see Harrison Ford on stage and looking like he gives half a shit.  I mean, it’s still only half a shit, but it’s more than he’s given in years.

Great. I’ll take four fried chickens and a coke.

Now that’s a McMansion!

To be honest, I never once thought that my audience of A.V. Club readers would have difficulty with “enervating.” I mainly thought, I use the words “deflating” and “disappointing” a lot, and it might be nice to say this another way, especially when I’m writing ~50 pieces a year for the site.

But gosh, thanks for your

What makes “enervating” convey that message? Is it because it’s not used commonly? Because, if that’s your criteria for seeming stuck-up, then I have news for you: there are around a half a million words in the English language and an average person only knows somewhere between 20,000-40,000 of them. That’s a lot of

Similarly, complaining about this is a great way to make me feel genuinely stuck up, less because I used the word “enervating” and more because now I think you’re kinda dumb!

I would have been fine with him getting an Oscar for that movie. Although I think the way he plays that part is very different from how Vikander plays hers. (As they should be, as they’re two pretty different parts!)

I would consider K-pop branding a crucial 1% of the combo

I also read that law enforcement had responded to an incident involving ‘one of the men’ in the days prior to this incident. Given the wife’s comments about picking a fight with ‘a random young woman’, and the video above, it sounds like there may have been a problem with this young man previously. Which, clearly

oh for sure. Where he fucked up is he attacked a civilian and its on video. This fucker has probably been harassing black recruits for years and getting away with it under the cover of his job but embarrassing the Army publicly? He’s fucked. 

This issue has already gone before the courts in the US. People were imitating the voices of Tom Waites and Bette Middler without permission. They lost. The method used to create those imitations is entirely irrelevant. People’s voices are *NOT* fair use. They are covered under Right of Publicity.

The people providing the tools aren’t responsible for how those tools are used (see: Sony v Universal). It’s the people using those tools who are liable for how they use them. And we’ve seen cases move through the courts that involve modding and mods, so this isn’t exactly a new legal area (though certainly not
