In Tie Fighter, if you messed up a mission you would find yourself in a hallway with a flight commander and a shadowy representative of the Emperor's cult. You could talk to either one, and they'd give you hints at what you needed to do succeed at the mission. Sometimes they weren't hints so much as explicit…

I love Harvey Danger, but even I was questioning why I was still reading the article after it went into detail on how many times it'd been played on the radio last year.

This is where I curse written communication. Your beginning sentences make me think you're serious, but your choice of units makes me think you're joking.

Hence why I said "Skill matters a ton". If you're going to get hit hard, having that extra muscle and size helps.

I loved this. You can always tell people whose only fighting experience is video games when they talk about how being small and fast can compensate. Skill matters a ton, but it's always better being bigger and stronger than your opponent.

Wait, Maynard interacted with the crowd at a Tool concert?

Paramount won't let them. From the articles in the past I was pretty sure that was why Captain Worf is never going to happen. The only Trek Paramount will let happen now has to be based on the latest film abominations.

The Samurai caste was disbanded in the late 1860s, so unless this is a really old video, he's not a samurai. Also, unless the sword was forged before that (which isn't impossible), it's just a katana.

I remember being very confused why Chris was delivering my local paper somewhere with palm trees in the background. I still loved the show.

*pushes up pedantic glasses* Mayonaise is a non-newtonian fluid, not a gel.

I've been wary of chopsticks since seeing Return of the Dragon.

Was anyone else sad the pen mentioned in the article wasn't from Grosse Pointe Blank?

It's not just their alternate versions, they're totally different people in the suits. It's typical DC "dark and gritty", without any of the charm or fun that Timm usually puts in his work. Watch the shorts on YouTube before spending time on the whole movie. Both a murderous Superman and Batman…

Yes, it's from Bruce Timm. But it's a Bruce Timm who finally caved to DC's everything must be dark push, and there's nothing fun about any of the characters in it.

I didn't like Cabin in the Woods because of how much everyone who told me to see it raved about it. I kept trying to figure out what the twist was going to be, and then there wasn't one. It went pretty much exactly where it seemed like it would be going. Which I might have enjoyed if I hadn't heard how amazing the…

*pushes pedantic glasses up nose* The correct term is "films noir".

I got sick of them pushing me off cliffs or running straight into the middle of things while I was sneaking around. With how dumb the companion AI is, I don't understand why anyone would use them.

I think you're thinking of Gothenberg.

My carry on is a backpack, that when I'm not flying is used to haul my binder of character sheets, dice, and source books between gaming sessions. A couple years ago I wound up as the party rogue, and since I kept forgetting, I attached a pin with "Check for traps" on the bag. I have yet to make it through security…
