Sally Decker?

One of my favorite things about MST3K is how the jokes hit everyone a little differently. “Hey, his legs are sticking out!” is funny, but when I watched it with my best friend in middle school, that line had him rolling on the floor, which makes me appreciate it even more.

.............BANJO!!!

I’m a big fan of Haley Joel Osment’s arc where he makes a huge splash as a frighteningly great child actor, leaves the spotlight for a few years, and comes back as a laid-back character actor in weird, smaller projects.

The best politics podcast is Cum Town.

“What about in dog years?”

Switch version. Later in the video there’s a segment where he explains how to stitch multiple video recordings together directly from the Switch.

The AV Club’s silence on the continued success of Cum Town is deafening.

And it’s crazy how different her voice sounds between in- and out-of-character. 

Uh oh.

I’m almost done with the Three Body Problem trilogy, which I started earlier this year. The first book was interesting but dragged at times, and I feel like I would have gotten a lot more out of it if I were more familiar with Chinese history and culture. The second and third books are much more universally…

So does his thumb.

If there’s supposed to be 19 years between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, nobody felt the Tattooine rapid-aging worse than Aunt Beru.

It’s called 372 Pages We’ll Never Get Back. They covered RP1 first, then Armada, then a bunch of other books (I stopped listening to it for a while), and now they’re back to cover RP2 and it’s wonderful.

If you don’t already listen to the podcast ‘Til Death Do Us Blart, you really should check it out.

That’s a great podcast, and I’m excited that they’ve started covering the sequel. I love how Mike and Connor are able to articulate Cline’s awful crutches that he keeps falling back on, like the narrator constantly being aware of and commenting on his own reactions.

I’ll admit Anathem felt like a slog at first with having to flip back to the glossary every other paragraph, but I am so glad I stuck with it. Honestly it might be my favorite novel, and it just gets better every time I read it.

Preferably sitting on a couch, having dry, robotic conversations that manage to make a mystical all-encompasing magic Force sound boring.

Counter-point: The OT was written incrementally with lots of major plot elements and twists not planned out from the beginning. The prequels were a fully-planned 3-movie arc.

Sadly I haven’t done any international travel as an adult, but I would fly to Puerto Rico to eat mofongo with skirt steak every weekend if I could afford it.
