I have a multiple channels that I’ve curated over the last 10+ years on my Pandora, and I just keep it on shuffle anymore. Anytime one of my older managers (I’m in my mid-40s, so figure it out) happens to stop in to my kitchen and Elvis is playing, they’re always flabbergasted.

I honestly don’t get the point of this game, but I’ve also been so far removed from gaming in general since...probably 2000. At the same time, rogue-like games were a staple of my formative years (hence the avatar and user name, duh), and the best was a very, very rogue-like version of D&D. I could dial into my dad’s

Arrested Development is one of those shows that I occasionally come back to. The renewal on Netflix was...different. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t good either.

I want to switch to Verizon, simply because when I have to travel for work (which isn’t very often these days, haha) they have so much better coverage. I lived in DC for a few years a decade ago, and they were the only carrier that had reception in the metro. I still can’t believe I didn’t switch over back then. I’m

I always forget that was the episode with Jerry Stiller losing his shit at the end because of the Korean War.

I didn’t know anything about late night shows until visiting my sister at college in 1985. I was maybe 9-10 and watched one episode of Letterman, and it kinda changed my life. I love that I was watching him and also Carson (before he retired) and always, always hated Leno. That Conan is still around amazes me, because

This was a brilliant, awesome interview. Smigel is a comedy god and I can’t believe it took this long to get him. 

I was gonna Incept this response from you, but you posted too fast.

Ouch. 

I didn’t have a cell for most of the early ‘00s, but thanks to work I had to get one in ‘05. Went with Cingular (remember them?), and it was great coverage, service, and I think I was paying only $35/month for unlimited everything. When AT&T came back to life and bought out Cingular, it all went to shit.

My mind just got blown. Like, I could see it actually happening (did anyone even think that the Mouse would own Star Wars and Marvel ten years ago?). But owning both Marvel and DC?

GTFO. 

Now that is a fun fact. 

If I could put together a superhero team of nerds it’d be Bushnell, Woz, and Richard Garriot. They’d be fighting the duo of Jobs and Gates (I know, a weird teamup but...seriously, I have a feeling they talked all the time).

My older cousin had an Intellivision. My uncle offered to sell it to me sometime in the mid-90's for like $750 with all the games. I laughed, but I really miss those paddles and playing Burgertime. 

I’m still pissed I lost my original SMS (from 1987) and the Genesis I bought with my own money just a couple months after it came out here in the States. I still had both with original styrofoam interiors and original boxes in 2005. Put them in a storage unit and then it had a flood a couple years later. All the games

Or legs.

I cannot believe I never saw that Steve Martin cold open before. Seeing Chris Farley with that entire cast was perfect. I stopped watching on the regular probably just before Farley joined and Phil Hartman left for NewsRadio.

We could only be so lucky.

That movie is the one I found myself putting on when I was finally getting home drunk as hell and thinking it’d be good to fall asleep to...and then I’d end up watching it to the end. I may have low standards, but Ghost Protocol is a perfect blend of humor and action for me.
