This season was fucked the second Manila went home. I like both Trinity and Monet, but Manila is an order of magnitude better than either.  Declaring co-winners is a pretty clear attempt to duct tape two queens together to make something of Manila’s caliber, but instead you get something like Bret’s camera phone from…

So they’re basically LARPing Hypnospace Outlaw?  I’m into it.

Okay now apologize for the screenplay.

Super excited for this.  Like a lot of people I want to think that I’m too cool to like Vampire Weekend, but they always drag me in.  

You’re right, the history is the history. And your history is very selective and very skewed.

Yeah I totally agree.  The acting was fine and the music was obviously great but it was a poorly written series of clumsy, obligatory beats and shallow characters.  

You need to listen more closely to what’s actually being played rather than just paying attention to the similarity in the instruments being used. Granted that both have a prominent cowbell part and a fairly similar bass sound, both the rhythm and the bass line are completely different. And, it’s worth mentioning, the…

Overall I agree with what’s said in the article about Wilco’s mild decline since YHF, but even the way the article is written seems to imply that YHF was basically an A. And there are a few other high points for me in their career; “Remember the Mountain Bed” in particular is an absolute masterpiece of a song.

Oh man, I am so on board. The first season was one of the best surprises of the past few years.

The one that really does me in these days is by Iron and Wine, from “Walking Far From Home”. I’m living on the opposite side of the world (Germany)from my wife (Japan) and from my family (USA), and am more alone than I’ve been at any other time in my life. There’s a line in that song that says “I went walking far from…

Well that was unexpected and amazing.  I don’t really know what else to say.

Just saw it last night.  The acting was great, the music was obviously great, the script was embarrassing garbage.  Good lord, that was a poorly written movie.

Totally agree. To me Penny Dreadful was always The Eva Green Show Starring Also Some Other People I Guess.

oh no where will i go now for my ironic fisting

Always happy to hear opinions on misogyny from Jim Jeffries, who has said some of the most reprehensibly misogynist shit of any comedian in recent memory.

Did any of them mention that this is a fairly obvious ploy for mainstream republicans to try to distance themselves from a historically unpopular president shortly before the midterm election?  I haven’t watched yet.

Donut County is a cute game with charming characters and dialog, but honestly I ended up feeling like it was a bit of a disappointment.  It only took about an hour to beat the whole thing, and the levels had a very closed-off feeling, like there was only one way through.  It’s basically Katamari Damacy except you’re…

Finally a post we can all agree on.

I can’t tell whether you’re hitting on my or not.

I know so many gay dudes who like boobs that at this point I assume they are the rule, rather than the exception.
