The Worm Level on Dungeon Master for the Atari ST. God, I hated fighting those things.

As a Jets fan, I wish I could feel as optimistic about their season as you do. 

+1. Much as I loved The Witch, Thoroughbreds was the movie in which she really blew me away.

True -- even Columbus couldn’t make his stars into bad singers. 

That was terrible, in spite of the great cast. Chris Columbus had no idea how to translate the material. Instead, grab the recording of the final performance of the show on Broadway. The names aren’t as big (although Will Chase went on to be on Nashville), but it’s a much better experience.

Was surprised not to see James Patterson listed here, until I remembered I was on Lifehacker and not AVClub, and this is about a different kind of hack.

The last time a Jet injured a Pat, it was Mo Lewis taking out Drew Bledsoe, and that gave the world Tom Brady. I hate to think what kind of phoenix-like monster will arise from Pat Patriot.

This video is a great argument in favor of announcers shutting the fuck up.

Time for Marathon 4!

If this stops him from (slowly) writing any more comics, I’m in favor.

“Home run” as an expression of something successful has been in the English language for ages, so this is a bad take.

My solution has just been to say, “Alexa, play Sleep Radio on Tunein.” It’s non-repeating music with no ads or words, and has been great for me to both cover up other noise, and to lull me to sleep (I do NOT do well in complete silence).

Hubie Brooks or GTFO.

Although Matt Simms is also an ex-Jet, his finest moment definitely came when he played (preseason-only, of course) for the Bills: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fbm80mQ8DI

The movie is, indeed, fantastic, but putting Idina Menzel in major role in a Disney musical and then not giving her any songs is a crime.

Caruana’s coming chronometrical catastrophe created a calamitous climate.

Heh. Yeah. As another DC guy, if you haven’t already, google how Jim Shooter (when he was still there) tried to actually make Ferro lad the first black hero (pre-Panther), but was told he couldn’t because that would offend distributors in the South.  That was a hell of a thing to learn.

J’onn as a fedora-wearing PI is very much canon in the comics (or was, back when he first appeared).
