Why does Hollywood want to reboot or remake so many movies? I imagine DC looks at what worked and decides “yeah, Hal Jordan sold better than the current guy, bring back Hal Jordan.”  

They had such a great thing going where the torch had been passed to a third generation of heroes, and they shit all over that to bring back the most boring versions from the 80s. Reading reprints of the Hal Jordan comics I never understood what made him so special; Kyle was the last Lantern and had this huge burden…

If I remember some supplemental material from an early script correctly, I think Slimer wasn’t meant to be the ghost of any particular person, just an embodiment of the excess hotel guests had been engaging in for so long.  All of that psychic energy of people ordering room service and thinking “oh, what the hell, I’m…

Trump sounds like a mugger when you put it that way. “He made a threat and the person volunteered to donate his wallet.”

Here’s a photo of Eric Trump at the In-n-Out On Sahara in Las Vegas the night of the Presidential debate, with lemonade in his water cup. Shifty grifters don’t pay for anything, and if you’re letting this idiot come in and say “I’m buying a round for everyone!” without putting his credit card down then you deserve to…

Batman is featured in the Green Lantern Rebirth story for the sole purpose of having Hal Jordan punch him and Guy Gardener shout “one punch!” to “make-up” for the time Batman punched Guy in JLI.  People recognized it as petty and pandering at the time, but Johns has went back to that well more and more when doing his…

Tomatoface has a strong “hello, friends” vibe of an outcast. This is much more like the Romo-dumbass’s in-your-face trolling, it with a discipline to stay in character or on message that that guy lacks.

So is this a really sad troll attempt, or a really shitty, honest effort from actual Russians, do you think? Either way, it’s sort of obvious why they’ve always been a shitty substandard country.

We came back through Manas in 2012 after that, but the one thing I remember is walking from the DFAC one night (I swear, the Air Force tent that served us there was a better chow hall than any mess hall on a stateside Marine Corps base) when we noticed that all of the dumpsters and trash cans had the latching lids, “I…

You could shut the fuck up, tomato. 

Well, now he’s complaining that some of his posts were inserted into his post history by outside parties. Hopefully he’ll just stop coming here one day because he has killed himself, but I always expect to see Splinter namechecked when a mass-shooter’s internet history is discussed on the news.

Shhh! We’re busy passing another bailout for farmers hurt by Trump’s trade war.

Well in fairness I assume everything Trump says is a lie, so I don’t know which one of them is lying here. 

We got held up about a week leaving Leatherneck because of the attack at Bastion airfield where they lost a bunch of parked Ospreys, then we had mechanical issues that held us for another week at Manas. It was just our Comm platoon and a few Motor T guys, about 80 people on the last stick taking the slow route home.

You know we can see your shitty tomato posting history, right, dumb dumb?  Shut the fuck up and leave. 

Oh, also, our battalion burned through the entire stock of rabies vaccine, because someone adopted a local dog and it bit a solid 20 people before someone went to BAS to ask about the dog bite.

They gave us something when we were leaving Afghanistan, and it was 14 pills they needed us to take for two weeks, but they told us that any alcohol consumption during the course of drugs or in the two weeks following the drugs could cause liver failure and kill us. “Do you get a lot of cases of malaria here? Because…

I’m surprised he didn’t berate them all. “You want to write this down? Real lawyers never write stuff down, it’ll be used against us when his goes to trail. Why should I sign it?”

No shit? When the company that supported Chancellor Hitler and made the chlorine gas from WWI decides “eh, we’re distancing ourselves from that history” you know Fox is fucked up. 

The ticker in the screenshot is pretty good: “Russia says they’re innocent of election interference!”  Nothing to see here, folks.
