You know, Saul of Tarsus? The guy who invented “Christianity”?

But I’m giving YOU the like for being second . Good job!

And someday, the CHANCEllor of the exchequer . 

Does it? You mean when Boltie insists on having sex with the Crimson Bolt? I guess you are right. My old-fashioned mind had not framed it that way but you are right that it is a rape. However, I’d have to rewatch to be sure, but I wouldn’t say it was played as a joke. I don’t remember it being funny, or rather that it…

To echo some complaints others have made in other contexts, does everything have to be a tv series now? They are stretching a novella out to who knows how many hour long episodes? Either some creative person better have a lot of new ideas to develop, or this is going to be really boring. I get the economic logic of…

I guess I will buck the standard and say I really love Super. I’ll even share my drink recipe for the “Crimson Bolt” Shot each of gin and Campari over ice in a tall glass then fill up with Cheerwine. A sweeter, fizzy negroni.

1) Ernie Bushmiller was a genius

I’m glad to hear that this is good. The trailer got me pretty excited and also confused. The animation style looked too good to be a superhero movie. 

Try “We Bare Bears” on Netflix.

I will take advantage of the anonymity of the internet to say I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED ABOUT THIS. 

Also, I think there is a legitimate concern that any contact with outsiders would put the whole Sentinalese population at mortal risk from disease. They presumably have no resistance to any disease agent that isn’t already on the island.

I thought the murder investigation by the Indian government was an investigation of the dudes who rented him a boat and showed him where to dock on the island. Those guys are liable for recklessly leading this doofus to his death. I thought is was already written into Indian law that the Sentinalese were not liable…

Tim Burton’s next project should be a “Bizzaro” movie. Because a) I really like Bizzaro and b) it would be right in his wheelhouse. I could even actually enjoy Jonny Depp playing Bizzaro. They would just have to tell him that he’s playing Superman and it would come out perfect.

Are those kids CGI, too? Because that little girl could be a spokesperson for the uncanny valley. (If, you know, the Uncanny Valley were a brand of salad dressings or something.) Maybe it’s easier to just CGI kids now that to deal with the hassle of child actors. Especially if you are Tim Burton and mainly interested…

I think I’ll go over to Boardgamegeek and see people dive into the strategic minutia and statistical patterns of what seems to clearly be a joke.

Celery is delicious. It has a unique, subtle flavor, it is great both raw and cooked, and even it’s seeds and leaves have uses. Shame on you for dissing celery.

Has anyone told this guy that the VA would probably get him a nice prosthetic eye if he wanted? Then he wouldn’t have to go around looking like a pirate. Unless, of course, he wants to look like a pirate.

Kurt Vonnegut (I think) said America is the only country where people think the question “If you’re so smart, why aren’t you rich?” makes sense. We have no other standard for what makes a quality person.

The point of this feature is to review a Wikipedia article, not to do any separate research. As far as can be told from the Wikipedia piece, there were NO theological elements to the entire proceeding. All of the charges, countercharges, explanations and outcomes seem to have been driven by politics and Canon law.

There weren’t a lot of entertainment options in those days.
