Yeah, I caught it the first time but forgot about it until the "Your Moment of Them" week. Definitely one of Chieng's strongest bits.

Yeah. It's staggering how racially condescending that piece was. I mean, pointing the camera and peppering political questions at well-meaning elderly folk who couldn't speak English was bad enough, but the segment spliced in a lot of stereotypical "Asian" stuff - the song "Kung-Fu Fighting," asking people if they

I guess it's like Ih-raq vs Eye-raq…

We'll be the Pirate Twins again!

I think, in addition to Greg Stillson and Biff Tannen, Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds is another 80s movie asshole the current POTUS reminds me of.

You, sir, have the boorish manners of a Yaley!

The Greatest Urination

So this is the book in which Kelsey Grammer started bullsitting that he was made a regular on Cheers just to piss Shelley Long off?

I loved Pasolini's adaptations of The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales, but I found Arabian Nights disappointing.

Just as long as nobody bans Dolby's Cube.

Cake is a bistirbile cradabolic amphetamoid.

Billy West's Ren is weaker than John K's. But how do we all feel about Eric Bauza's Stimpy?

John K hasn't posted on his blog since December 2015. And even before that his blogging had become sporadic. I think maybe he's been laying relatively low since the whole crazy stalker (Elana Pritchard) thing.

I never watched 21 Jump Street during its original run, but I watched almost the entire series (seasons 1-4, not much of 5) circa 2012… And shit, most of it holds up pretty well. Yeah, it's dated and preachy, but the quality of the show still defaults to pretty good. And Doug Penhall is awesome.

"This is not Mel Tormé!"

But he took his mask off before dying in the comic as well.

But no one goes into Lost Girls or The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen thinking that they're official follow-ups to The Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, Dracula etc. It's very different to DC flogging official Watchmen prequels against Alan Moore's wishes.

And John Vernon as "The Mayor."

I'm in favour of naming kids "Katana", but only when it's in honour of Michael Ironside's character from Highlander II: The Quickening.
