I was really just making a cheesy joke that would allow me to do the dun-dun-dunnn thing, but since you asked:

The Key & Peele Outkast sketch was the perfect illustration of the Big Boi > Andre 3000 debate.

Gotta give them credit for putting Killer Mike on, too. I've turned out to like him just as much, if not more via Run the Jewels, than Outkast.

I feel precisely the opposite. I feel like the "Golden Age" of hip-hop (East Coast hip-hop in particular) was extremely illuminating for this particular suburban white person. Not all hip-hop is "the black CNN," to paraphrase Chuck D, but it gave me a window into a culture I was wholly unfamiliar with. Plus in my

I take it Erykah Badu really liked the Papa Legba getup from American Horror Story: Coven…?

"LOCK THE CASHBOX! LOCK THE CASHBOX!"

….or would it? DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNN!

I'd say it's high time, then!

I don't think Dolores having machine parts bolsters the "William is the MiB" theory at all. It's already been noted that she is the oldest host in the park. Short of a complete physical rebuild, there's no reason why she wouldn't still be in original-model condition, is there?

(you realize we’re going to have to watch that animal die at some point, right? CGI or not, that’s going down hard)

Gawddamn 2016, uncle already. I yield to your unceasing brutality.

I got burned out on Seinfeld reruns in college and have purposely avoided them for a solid decade so I can someday return to them with enjoyment.

Bunny Colvin's speeches in S3 and S4 (the paper bag, the beat cop/war on drugs and the kids-ain't-learnin'-for-your-world parts) are so tremendous.

I'm definitely planning to re-watch The Shield and The Wire, although I have to admit that the jones for either is usually pretty well-satisfied with a quick YouTube search. (Perfect example: Herc and Carver's "Huh/huh?" scene with the corner boys has its own highlight reel, including slow-mo, on YouTube.)

"Directionless pandering" is a pretty accurate description of a lot of the AHS series' run.

Katie: Hey, at least you're getting some protein from the peanut butter.

The primary difference is that The Onion isn't trying to pass itself off as real news, which, let's not kid ourselves, this guy was totally trying to do.

Did I miss some mitigating context, or did the "heroine" of this movie 100% compare Jews to animals toward the end of the trailer there…?

Recently saw the ass-kickingest bluegrass band on the planet, the Traveling McCourys, at the Rex Theater in Pittsburgh, and since then I've been listening to a ton of Del McCoury Band (the Traveling McCourys + Del).

I made two hot sauces earlier this week (well, one, as the first turned out to not be nearly as hot as I thought) with my homegrown Scotch bonnet peppers. The first was a mango-mustard-pepper sauce with cumin, salt, brown sugar and vinegar that is fantastic on pulled pork.
