Can someone explain the draw of Echo Auto for me? It seems like it adds absolutely nothing other than the ability to add stuff to your Amazon shopping list from the car, which... I mean, okay, but really?

I think a better question would be, if I hung a picture of two random dudes in your living room and you didn’t notice, would it still be funny? And the answer is, yes, it would be even funnier.

The prank isn’t on the customers, it’s on McDonalds.

...and your car will roll into a nuclear missile silo, unintentionally launching a nuke at Moscow and starting WW3.

OH MY GOD

It’s funny you should mention that. Way back around 2000 or something, I did a little desktop support for an admin assistant who used to complain that her system ran too slowly, but frequently ran two browsers simultaneously, each with a good dozen or so tabs open. (this was on an ancient-even-for-then Windows…

FAKE REFERENCE.

Yeah, any nuclear bomb detonation isn’t good, but this was particularly bad.

Fuck yeah.

I was just commenting to a friend on the irony that somehow, despite all this, JJJ is still angrily barking for photos of the Spider Man.

Thanks - I was very, very confused for a moment there.

The bullets thing literally does not happen until the final seconds of the story, so don’t get too excited.

(But yeah, I had a bit of a WTF! moment when it did. It also obscured a similar moment that happened moments before, which I will leave unspoiled for now.)

Ward was the best thing about Season 1 and I’m stoked that he returns.

That’s the “Jersey” part. They weren’t smart enough to run.

Another moral in this story: if you’re hoping to make your money by discovering cool shit, you better get on it right now, because it might take 50 years before you get recognized for it.

I’m also a Canon-to-Sony convert. Honestly the only thing that jumps out at me as obviously better than the A7iii is the touchscreen. I don’t even have that much legacy glass, but having to get an adapter to use my EF lenses on a full frame camera just makes it seem not worth it. Pass.

What, you don’t remember? Here:

The people who watched Clone Wars and Rebels didn’t need any help identifying Darth Maul, so having him wave it around seems extra unnecessary for them. I’m not saying that there’s no way that it made sense that Maul would be there - I’m just saying that the reveal just felt kinda meh to me, and the extra lightsaber…

That trailer for First Man is so jarring. It looks like a horror movie, or an adaptation of some John Grisham potboiler.
