Crap! I was going to make that joke!

So, I see Ms. Meyer's naming skills haven't improved since the days of "Renesmee."

I think my dad has that - he's gone on a lot of June-like rants* - but I'm pretty sure neither my brother or I do. We have been diagnosed with actual Aspergers though, maybe that overrides it.

Oh my god. That sounds like it could even eclipse "Twenty minute rant about crediting every monkey actor separately," on the list of great HDTGM moments… Which are mostly great June moments.

Just because things are terrible in the animal kingdom doesn't mean we should make them worse.

"Anytime a line like “Anyone with enough dough to sit on the board spend
more doing blow off a hooker’s tit on a Saturday night” is going to have
its fair share of soap. There is something cliche in cloaking and
ballet company in suds"

From the perspective of someone who's never watched Gilmore Girls, it sort of sounds like Logan's father was right.

(Hannibal SPOILERS below)
Huh. Hannibal making this list isn't surprising, but I would've thought it'd be the Season 2 Finale, or something similar. You know, an episode about terrible things happening to characters we like.

Rita, I gotta say, your comment is largely incomprehensible - the first two sentences in particular - and I have no idea what it has to do with Please Like Me or closet homophobes.

I really liked that while Arnold's dad was clearly not cool with him being gay, he was also self-conscious about appearing homophobic and being "the bad guy," - thus the attempt to reframe his anger as being about dishonesty. I think that kind of closeted homophobia is a really common reaction to coming out, but it's…

Well, I hope to god you're right.

In and of itself, this was a good episode. I honestly wish it had been more The Martian and less about Simmons and Beardy McLonesome's relationship, but I still think it was a good episode.

Honestly, they could avoid complicating things with Fitz if they wanted to. Like, she was trapped with Spacey McScruffles for several months without any other people, and eventually, without hope that they'd ever get back home. So obviously they're going to have an intense bond. And well, Jemma likes dudes, and…

Oliver has the skills necessary that it *isn't* him or the bad guys - that he can choose to hold back without getting killed for it. And generally speaking, he goes after and chooses to fight villains. (Though I still think it's dumb to hold back when fighting guys like R'ahs or Slade.)

Oh, man, this brings back some memories. I would've been about ten when Smallville started, so I consider it to have been my education in bad television.

Yeah, I love the lighting - off the top of my head, I can't think of any other lengthy cave sequences (and this includes the sequel) where the cave isn't just mysteriously lit up, because showing it be realistically dark would be too hard.

I love it too.

I fell in love with The Descent as a teenager, when I was just starting to check out adult horror for the first time. One thing that I realised after a few viewings is that, characterization-wise, the script is tighter than the Pope's asshole.

Earlier this year someone mistook me for Hannah Gadsby, who plays Hannah and is a fine comedian in her own right. They said they'd wondered what she was doing in their writing course.

I hadn't heard of this guy before I read that piece on World Of Tomorrow, but it certainly sounds like his stuff is worth checking out. That Simpsons bit was pretty awesome, certainly.
