Something wrong with his serum I guess, or just sloppy necromancy.

Jeff Pinkus might pick it up if he found it lying around, but he's no spring chicken either.

You're thinking of the West Country, and it may not be all that far-fetched. Though our idea of a pirate accent mostly comes from Newton's native Dorset, he didn't grow up far from the old pirate launches of Bristol and Devon. For all we know Cap'n Teach might have sounded like Worzel Gummidge.

Christ and the Pale Queens Mighty in Sorrow.

I was just introducing a couple of friends to BCS this holiday. They skipped Breaking Bad due to the levels of violence but are big fans of Bob Odenkirk. The thing that struck me on rewatch is how fucking well-cast the show is; not just the main characters but the people you only see for seconds at a time, like the…

Wonder if that's what's up with Doombar. One of my favorites on tap; tastes like butt in the bottle.

Also, we still haven't met Jim the Fish yet. Don't be stingy, DW.

Not sure "chastity" is the right word for something you wear while getting reamed by your favorite sex partner. More like, I dunno, "deferral."

Went browsing in the comics store and found Jim Woodring's Book of Frank for 25 pounds. They seem to be going for kind of a lot online these days, so I went for it. I assumed my kid would find it too freaky, but she sat and read the whole thing with me and had a lot to say about it. I flipped through Fran while I…

I've always liked his Cyrano

Dammit, you made me use Google.

15-rune win with a Spriggan assassin! Suck it, science!

You can do both. Having Civ open on the side helped me get through last season of the Strain. In fact, getting sick of playing Civ is what convinced me to stop watching the Strain.

I was so proud the day I finished Contra within three lives.

If she needs a drink she can just stroll on over to Russia.

Just post and shoot, nothing to it.

I think it's the one where every other character and place is named after a Pacific Northwest island or river.

Also it's the name of an unrelated and not-terrible book by Frank Herbert.

What this show has that JA lacked was a complete commitment to putting a piece of themselves out there, and evil to them who think evil of it. It can be a mess sometimes, and cards on the table here holy goddamnfuckingshitchristhell I hate that song so fucking much, but that degree of vulnerability kind of skinned my…

Not that I'm particularly invested in what others think of it, but I thought Person of Interest was worth a mention. As for OITNB, I wanted it to be one of the best shows this year, but I thought it went off the rails halfway through. Piper as prison crime boss really is not working for me.
