“The qualities that make a good press secretary do not equal the qualities that make even a barely competent governor.”

Let’s examine the idea of SHS having those qualities in the first place.  

Consider the timeframe when that happened and you’ll have your answer.

When will we finally learn that goddammit, you have to set them on fire to end them? When?

I do think it was important to learn that Sam was going to start boning, and boning a LOT.

I enjoyed these movies in the theater, and still do every so often on a rewatch, but the most recent time I was struck by just how many goddamn times Elijah Wood had to shriek NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!  It did get a big old.

Yeah, I was referring to the EP rumors, which I’m leaning toward if this is truly a lead-in to Doctor Strange 2.

“especially growing up in backwater Eastern Europe”  - I could easily seeing whatever TV they had there being entirely reruns of old American shows.

Banner had described Vision as a complex mesh of at least 4 other personalities (plus the Mind Stone) in Infinity War, so I do think that maybe at least part of what’s going on is his brain knitting itself back together after Thanos ripped out the stone.  His body must have been put somewhere after the Snap, and I’ll…

Especially if, as rumored, a version of Pietro shows up eventually.

I don’t recall all of the 30 Rock ones, but the one I can remember (in one of the live episodes, with Jon Hamm as the character in question) it was very explicitly framed as horribly offensive, also having taken place back in the 1950s (or whatever), with Tracey Morgan’s character pushing back against it fiercely and…

Very cool.  Just needs those adaptive telescoping wheels and you can be Hiro Protagonist from Snow Crash at last.

Nakia, right? Her or Okoye taking up the mantle would be easily the two best solutions. I lean toward Okoye, myself, since she’s more established through Infinity War/Endgame, but either would work.

yeah, say what you will, but Cipher had a point.

Yes!  More of this!

I think mine has to be Mario’s “Long Jump” from 64, 3D Land/World, Odyssey, probably others.  Satisfying, exuberant, useful.

“I’m white-knuckling it with a sofa in the bed”

Thank goodness this sentence didn’t go the way it first appeared to be heading.

Rechargables, my friend, as pretty much everyone here has said, meaning that you should redo that math with a single purchase of a set of batteries that lasts that entire time.

Same here.  I’d much rather just swap in two Eneloops when it runs out or gets low than have to tether for a while like with my other controllers.

Honestly, all the way up until opening night for Avengers: Endgame (in particular, obviously, the “on your left/assemble” scene), Signs had remained my single favorite in-theater experience. I saw it right away with a packed crowd, since M. Night Shyamalan was still riding high at that point, and the crowd was…
