I’ll just leave this here:

I am sorry to report that all they will serve is <i>Only Yesterday</i>-inspired Disappointing Pineapple.

In general, I think that my reading of HAL’s behavior could be consistent with HAL not being sentient. Lots of computers malfunction a bit when stuck in a logic loop. Fucking up the communications unit could also be a solution to the problem: can’t disobey orders from ground control if you never heard any orders in…

You don’t enjoy the taste of salt?

with my tongue as firmly in cheek as is Sean O’Neal’s* may i opine that a) the American pronunciation of any given word is a fine opinion, surely, but only an opinion, one that is valued or trivialized by the rest of your grammatical street cred— and may i say, in the US, you folk have a rat-c*nt’s worth of…

You’re mistaking criticism for cannibalism.

If we’re going to object to things in this article, I’m starting with “Bush invited he and his wife to the White House.”

It’s been a Donald Glover weekend at our household.

Resident Evil: Retribution: Me and my friend finished our Resident Evil death march of fun. Paul W.S. Anderson I feel cracked his own code here: the plot is set up so compounds (in an underground Umbrella station) recreate different cities and can be run from, one to another, with little or no set up. Just pure slo mo…

Movies: My only new viewing was Una which was pretty stellar, an unnerving little character study. Ben Mendelsohnn once again was aces, if I was a director I would have him on speed-dial. Rewatched Office Space, John Wick 2, and Wonder Woman - naturally all of them are dope, otherwise why would I give them another…

The final season of New Girl has begun, and in the comments a few of us were wondering what happened to Damon Wayans Jr and why isn’t he a huge star (I reckon despite his talent he’s just not hungry for fame or showbiz success - he grew up with a trust fund and private school after all ...).

I spent this week’s movie nights with The Watergirl and Grande Illusion. Time with Renoir is time always well spent, particularly with Tropical Punch Koolaid and a big heap of lemon and chocolate wafer cookies.

“I, Sir Mix-A-Lot, must protest! A rapper without a knighthood, sent to serenade Her Majesty? What has this world come to?! And me sitting here, with my newly penned ‘An Ode To A Diamond Jubilee Booty!’”

I hate to say it but the pairing of Shaggy and Sting is so ridiculous that I am actually glad that it exists.

I’ve never slowly pieced together that the person I’m talking to is the real murderer.

I was caught in someone else’s temporal loop. Which is why I don’t remember it.

I’m going to guess it was “Hey, you heard about these new corduroy pillows? They’re really making headlines.”

Well, there used to be a whole shitload of common pop-culture experiences I hadn’t had, but then, this one time, I was caught in a temporal loop (like in Groundhog Day or maybe that Star Trek episode with Frasier), and I made sure to do literally all of them.

There’s this thing called sex that shows up pretty often in movies and TV. Sure looks like fun...
