It’s funny seeing people get so fussy about James Bond’s surface-value casting. If 007 were a play instead of a film series, we’d have seen a billion people play Bond by now, no two of them looking alike. Theater isn’t so stuffy, it understands that all characters are born from the scripted void, but brought to life…

The only exception is loss of eyesight and arthritis that comes with older age, which tends to be common. Doesn’t always stop artists though, like Monet deciding to paint the distorted colors he was seeing with his aging eyes and cataracts, and Charles Schulz who famously developed a noticeable tremor that you could…

This is a foundation that Strong Bad built

Or maybe he is extremely talented at building stories on the foundation of existing work, and the people who have made movies and shows off of his comics aren’t remotely extremely talented at it, and he’s partly appalled specifically BECAUSE his career informs him on how to adapt things successfully and can see…

I assume he sleeps in a coffin, so this makes sense.

Betcha 50 bucks it’s a metanarrative where people read Watchmen when it first comes out in the 80s and decide to become superheroes, just like how in the original (real) Watchmen people are inspired by Superman and Batman’s golden-age comics debut to become heroes.

I’m sure there are a lot of games out there that it doesn’t recognize, but it probably isn’t too tough to program something to identify that anything that opens up from Windows Live, Steam, GOG, Epic, Battle.net, etc is likely a game.

How about they stop running automatic anti-malware scans (that i’m 99% sure I specifically turned off) in the background of my games? Do ya think I can’t see my framerate drop in 1/2 and my task manager filling like a swimming pool in a thunderstorm?

it 100% is a distinct style, and yes, it’s the unified major style of pizza places in the New Haven region, and yes, people specifically call it New Haven style pizza, and it’s more than just one “famous pizza shop”. Why don’t you come over and see how ubiquitous and established it is as a style before throwing it out…

Adding on to the other commenters that New Haven has a very established and reknown style of pizza. even has its own wikipedia page.

I’ll let y’all in on a secret. The best pizza on earth is in New Haven, Connecticut. This is not a joking matter. If you’re ever in Connecticut or doing something at Yale, stop by Frank Pepe’s pizza place and get some of it. Dunno if you’ll ever see New Haven pizza translated into an oven-pizza style, so this’ll be…

I’ve never had a problem with Dumbledore’s gayness being kept low-key on paper. Sometimes somebody you know just doesn’t talk about their sexual orientation and they (for lack of a better phrase) don’t make it obvious, so you stupidly never think to put two-and-two together and figure it out yourself before somebody…

Oh man, it was way too emotional than it should have been when he finally bought one for himself.

100% agreed. I’m a big sucker for the old economy cars in Europe (which I think these kei cars are inspired by) like the Fiat 500 and really wish there was a car out there today that was size-efficient with a similar endearingly dorky appearance, with the one difference being that I won’t die if I go out on the…

While that’s kind of annoying, I’m not really concerned with it. It’s better to have these kinds of players contained within the people willingly subjecting themselves to this weird cult habit rather than having them harassing people that just want to solo-queue without getting harassed for not heeding to the demands…

I was hoping this article was going to discuss eco-friendly ways to dispose of your old tech, seems like a missed opportunity

I feel personally attacked by some of the inclusions in the original roster bahahaha. Does This American Life really even have an organized fandom?

Not a fan of binge-watching. Even beyond the questionable healthiness of it, I feel like things are best not rushed. I like to chew my food and really think about what I’ve experienced, and appreciate the self-contained nature of a single episode/chapter of something. I feel like you miss a lot of nuance and thought…

The car looks beautiful. I really wish there were more car companies that really push the aesthetics of their cars in more interesting angles. I’m kind of tired of being surrounded every day by gray quasi-SUVs with the same general look. Give me some shit with corners, weird circles, goofy “faces”, novel shapes, and…

This looks so beautiful and fun, I’m keeping my eye on this one. Chucklefish seem to be hitting a neat kind of niche these days with these chill adventure life sims.
