Andrew Wood, Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Scott Weiland, Chris Cornell, Mark Lanegan. Can hardly believe it.

Rothfuss’ drought is actually worse than Martin’s; The Wise Man’s Fear preceded A Dance With Dragons to publication by four months, back in March of 2011. Perhaps even worse, while Martin has authored and edited a lot of projects since then, including three GoT novellas and six Wild Cards anthologies, Rothfuss hasn’t…

I don’t get that ‘even though’ point you’re making there. Cho certainly isn’t unique in diverging from his character’s ethnicity. Zoe Saldana is Dominican/Puerto Rican even though Uhuri is from Nairobi, Simon Pegg is actually English rather than Scottish, and Karl Urban is from New Zealand while Bones was from the…

Isn’t the Kelvin timeline exactly that already? Old Spock does a thing that causes a divergent timeline, which includes Old Spock meeting his younger, and now alternate self. Instant soft reboot by way of nostalgia stunt casting one of the original actors.

The population of Yellow Springs is tiny as fuck, about 3700 people. It’s hard to believe that area needs 140+ brand new single family homes priced at a third of a million bucks and up.

Wikipedia has the population of Yellow Springs listed as 3,697 people, current as of the 2020 census, and the number of homeless in a village is likely in the single digits. That $24 million dollar developer is only there to make money off low-income commuters working in Dayton and Springfield, they don’t care about sh…

$300,000 is not affordable?

No doubt, and I agree with your overly sweet analysis. I’d likely even veto Busken in favor of Graeter’s baked goods - those damn yellow smiley face cookies are nearly flavorless pucks of pure sugar.

It’s better to think of it as an oddly seasoned pasta sauce, as it has more in common with that than actual chili.

Cincinnati has tons of great food, but you have to hunt for it.

Coneys from Cincinnati chili parlors don’t come with beans. The default is chili, cheese, mustard and onions. Insofar as putting it on spaghetti, we’re talking about a tomato sauce with ground beef. That’s generally what Americans generally put on spaghetti anyway, just with some oddball seasonings.

One thing I thought that was slightly in favor of Cruise’s casting is that his build is non-threatening enough that I can see waves of goons taking a shot at him. Ritchson, on the other hand, looks like he stunt doubles for the Incredible Hulk, and some of the henchmen in this series would have to be out of their damn…

The Mexican Pizza is coming back as Taco Bell’s May-July limited time offering.

Not all of us. I’ve already waited a year, I can keep waiting until they price the game sensibly.

As an aside, fuck Tomi Adeyemi and her ‘frustration.’ She publicly accused another author (Nora Roberts) of stealing her book title, was shown that wasn’t true and still couldn’t be bothered to tell her followers to stop publicly harassing Roberts about it.

When buying sus Pokemon cards off the internet, knowing is half the battle.

I guess if you’re banking 90 grand a month, you can spring for a decent storage setup.

We hold these truths to be self evident, that all ninja turtles are created equal, and endowed by the mutagen with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of pizza.

Seven question in eight sentences, gonna need a masters’ thesis to address all that 😂

Fuck, I really must be getting old… can anyone explain what the term ‘meta’ means with respect to ‘TV meta’? I understand they’re streaming shows, but I’m not sure what is ‘meta’ about that.
