I know nothing about Mayer's music, so it was a surprise (at an induction couple years ago?) that he's a chameleon on the guitar. Like a comedian doing impressions, he's good at reproducing other guitarists' styles.

Why was he banned? He may try attending incognito, since that's not his real name.
Also, it's hilarious that he nominated himself as best editor.

Well, which is it… "avuncular" or "dad?"

Still makes me uncomfortable when I see him on MSNBC for some reason.
My near atheism cringes when the guests have to call him Rev and my (imaginary) dyslexia makes me see/hear Sharlaton allatime.

That there ceement pond looks just like the one in…

May have to watch the episode again to confirm, but it seemed to me that Pamela taking Louie from behind was more than role-playing. His look of surprise, then turning to pleasure, suggests he was pegged.

Assets are not always asses.

Trance has an additional Rosario asset… shaved.

Is that the algorithm from Silicon Valley?

You're thinking of Celestials, giant cosmic beings who periodically return to judge the Earth. Eternals and Deviants, essentially human offshoots, were created by Kirby when he returned to Marvel after working on The New Gods for DC. There are many similarities between the two concepts.

With some recent casting news for the Preacher pilot, it clicked for me that the protagonist in Wolf is actually Arseface. The defining event for the character is very similar, as are the results.

When you say "eating"… do you mean take-out or fine dining out?

"…the discovery of an alien planet that closely resembles medieval Europe…" This reflects one possible way to look at Game of Thrones. The humans came from elsewhere and devolved to feudal systems. The years long seasons also recall Brian Aldiss' Helliconia trilogy, where the seasons last for centuries. The red comet…

Someone remarked upthread that readers shouldn't hold bad/aweful characters against the books they live in (paraphrase).

I was somewhat disappointed by Ancillary Sword. It suffers from middle book syndrome and seemed almost like a side story, even while setting up the third volume.

I don't watch porn. The lighting is usually too (Justice League) Dark…
(paraphrasing Woody Allen)

Not sure I get the Mary Sue (hate that term) stuff. Kvothe is constantly screwing up, but he pushes against the constraints against him an achieves some measure of success.
What was the name of the course Elodin has him sign up for when he finally gives up after K pesters him relentlessly? "How not to be a Jackass?"…

That the new BG was dumber than the original can be disputed.
Glen Larson, rest his soul on the planet Kolob (actual Mormon belief that God resides there, which was changed to Kobol, as in Lords of, on the show), combined his Mormonism with Greek and Egyptian mythology to create a mish mash of humanity's history.
He…

Have you read Alastair Reynold's Harvest of Time (2013)? I enjoyed it immensely. As homage/fanfic or loving recreation of childhood watching the 3rd Doctor, it hit exactly the right tone and has the Master/alien antagonists dynamic you refer to.

About that GPS tracker: the bad guy placed it on the Arrow's leather outfit, so how did it jump to the suit Oliver was wearing during his date with Felicity?
