Cletus, the FETUS? How did anyone keep a strait face after that?

I think when the topic is “dirty Popes” a little levity is unavoidable.

Well first of all, the AVClub isn’t a blog. Second of all, I skipped wasting my time on The Cloverfield Effect or whatever it’s called and now I will skip this ,both thanks to AVClub reviews. Given my very limited spare time, film criticism is very important to me and it is important for me to find reviewers I can…

Last Tango In Paris Brando.

Yeah, he needs to be washing that beard in “Just For Men” and drop about ten pounds. He’d look 20 years younger.

If you don’t mind reading comics on a screen, you can save a lot by getting comics digitally rather than on paper.

“Brace yourself, Sheila!”

Absolutely. As in

Yeah, I get that. And it would be a good point if it made any sense. But there is nothing in that tiny handful of lyrics or the way it is sung to suggest that the protagonist intends violence toward the woman. He is coming to her with a feeling of amazement and joy. He has the broken gun, the symbol of his history of…

After weeks of Luke Null being disappointing I suspect the bar and been reset pretty low for him.

I think the last really good one was Kristin Wiig, Thanksgiving 2016. I actually sometimes find myself with that song stuck in my head.

In a world with no photography, no mass communication, no printing and slow travel thirty years and a few hundred miles is a LONG DISTANCE. All you would have had to prove anyone’s existence or really any history was word of mouth. Even in fairly recent history we have the examples of the characters of the “Wild West”…

Also, abortion is only a constitutionally protected right until the day the SCOTUS says that it isn’t, so we better all hope RBG and Kennedy outlive the current administration and meanwhile thanks a lot everybody who didn’t vote for Clinton.

Artists are so often wrong about their own work. John Darnielle has also said he doesn’t like to play Going To Georgia anymore because he thinks the protagonist is an indefensible jerk or some such thing. To me, this is outrageous nonsense; that guy is the same as the guy in Sax Rohmer #1, and that guy is a HERO. I…

Also you get to find out whether your friends are all all secretly convinced you are going to kill yourself ( and how many of them care) when they text to check up on you.

I assume it is because Fury is MUCH younger at that point

Right, but what he can do is identify a particularly high profile dispensary/ weed shop in a place like San Francisco or Portland, invite Fox News e.g. all for a ride-along, and then swoop in some Thursday afternoon with a hundred federal storm troopers complete with tanks and helicopters and arrest practically…

Quote Investigator suggests Martin Mull is the most likely source of the “dancing about architecture” line, though there are very similar quotes (same point, different silly simile) dating back to the early 20th century.

I had a friend who got sent home from school for wearing a Dead Kennedys “Too Drunk To Fuck” shirt. That same year there was a new kid, an exchange student from Germany, who wore a Stranglers “The Men Covered in Birdshit” shirt and the authorities totally let it slide. That guy was as big and mean looking as Dee Dee…

Even then there was plenty of better stuff to be aroused by. Herb Albert was just really popular.
