I don’t know what ‘the stolen phone’ is because I don’t give two fucks about Apple bullshit, but maybe you should finish that first sentence. And the rest of the story, to boot. Tim Cook still let that fucking grifter stand on the floor of his factory, take credit for it, and shit on Democrats while continuing to lie…

I for one am grateful for yet another entertainment award. Without them how would I know what music/movies/TV/books are good, and which are not?

Fuck everything about this awful company, their shithead leader, the racist prick he threw a campaign event for a few weeks ago to get himself a tariff exemption, and that giant circle building he built that looks like the asshole of the Earth. May he and the rest of the fucking drones who work there bang their heads…

A happier version of making too many demands was when NBC wanted Dean Martin to do a variety show. He asked for a then record high salary, with every perk imaginable, and only agreed to work 1 day a week to tape the show. He figured that they’d pass. When he came home from the meeting, one of his kids asked how it…

Detroit has a fine literary tradition. Don’t blame that knucklehead on us. (And there’s nothing wrong with “kick out the jams”, although addressing it to Kathie Lee Gifford might be just as uncomfortable as “f—- me sideways.”)

It’s always awkward when a guy from Michigan becomes a born-again Southern Rock icon.

Fun Fact: Michael J. Pollard was brought into replace Bob Denver’s lovable beatnik Maynard G. Krebs (as a different character but the same essential role) on Dobie Gillis after Denver was drafted into the army, but that only lasted for 2 episodes after Denver was declared 4-F and promptly returned to the show.

Somewhere, there’s a person who actually looks like this example of our “horrifying” future, and that person is probably sobbing alone in the bathroom.

I can live with that

Jesus, everyone lay off her.  Emma is trying really, really hard.  And all she eats is salad.

So a business casual morlock? 

Eh, I was a bigger fan of this statue when it looked like Peter Gabriel. The new one is too commercial.

Turns out Jesus was in the Book of Genesis.  Learn something new every day.

The Lamb Of God Lies Down On Broadway

When my son was about 10 or 11 Psycho came on TCM one afternoon. We watched TCM a fair bit, so he was always fine with older, black and white films. I’d read him many of the Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators books when he was younger, and talked abut who Hitchcock was, and he’d already seen The Lady Vanishes…

Or Liberace.

Between Rip, Charles Nelson Riley and Paul Lynde the '70's were apparently all about "don't ask, don't tell, middle America pretending not to see the obvious". Little kid me enjoyed these guys and old me appreciates that I started learning tolerance from them. Rest in Power,  Rip! 

So in the future, San Francisco’s gentrification by Silicon Valley will be total?

Even if there was any reason whatsoever to think that Snyder’s version of Justice League would have been better than the Whedon adapted version (there isn’t, as shitty as Whedon is and as shitty as Justice League is you just have to look at Snyder’s filmography to know he literally has no talent), the Snyder Cut…
