I went to a Christian college and can confirm that Christian vs. secular music is (or at least was in the 90's) a HUGE matter of debate.

Christopher Nolan, genius visionary: the Taylor Swift movie is going to make a lot of money

Yeah, I force myself to at least make a good-faith effort to figure out the connection before banging out the last four. Today I didn’t (it was the ‘fast’ one), because I had burned through my three guesses right off the bat and was just relieved to have solved it.

If you go on the Connections subreddit people are always complaining about the cross-category answers, somehow not understanding that they’re the whole point of the puzzle.

Tim and Eric are a dividing line where a lot of OG Adult Swim fans (mostly Gen Xers in their 20s) got off the train and millennials took over. They remade Adult Swim in their image.  I’m mostly in the same boat - Awesome Show was too much for me, though I loved Tom Goes To The Mayor.

Wow, I can’t believe someone else is also spending the weekend playing Ace Attorney Trilogy. I’m about to enter the final trial phase of Recipe For Turnabout from Trials and Tribulations, so I’m nearly through the whole thing.

“My understanding is if two characters are having a conversation in a game, the VAs for the characters are often recording at the same time so they can make it sound like a real conversation rather than just canned lines recorded in isolation and played in a specific order.”

I am about as pro-nudity as a person can be, and even I’m kind of shocked by the idea of appearing on a show where people will have a conversation, right in front of you, about how attractive or unattractive your junk is. It really is a new level in reality show shamelessness - made even stranger by the fact that its…

Oh my yes, you will see nudity.

The Colecovision port of Donkey Kong was pretty sick.

Nintendo, four different times in its history, gave you just a free pack-in game, but the *best* game they had (NES/Super Mario Bros., Game Boy/Tetris, SNES/Super Mario World, Wii/Wii Sports) - and each time it was an out-of-the-park smash success. And yet nobody does this anymore.  How many Game Boys were sold…

The NFT craze seemed to hinge on people being convinced that scarcity alone makes a work of art valuable. But I can scribble a picture of a dick on a napkin and create a scarce, one-of-a-kind work of art. Doesn’t mean anyone’s going to give me money for it.

The first time I ever encountered a self-checkout lane (circa 1999 or so at a Meijer in Ohio) I was buying one of those foil helium balloons that say ‘Congratulations’ or ‘Get Well Soon’. Since I’d never used one before, I had no idea that the bagging area was pressure-sensitive to the weight of your items. And I…

Nobody:

Only had to listen to their annoying coworker’s political opinions for 15-20 minutes? The rest of us should be so lucky

BREAKING: Gen IV Pokemon has same ability

“calling in to request the song” lol I got news for you - live radio DJs playing music and taking phone requests hasn’t been a thing for like 15 years. Your local radio DJ playing songs ‘by request’ lives in Omaha and voice tracks 50 different stations and says the song that was already scheduled to play was “by…

Is there really anything all that unusual going on here? Take the political angle out of this and it’s basically just “Harlem Shake” again - a song by a previously unknown artist that goes mega-viral on social media, which translates into chart success because charts work differently now. THAT is the big reason behind…

The thing is, you can launch an astroturfing campaign like this 1,000 times and it will work once, if at all. Right-wing social media is always trying to boost something, and for every Sound of Freedom or Rich Men North of Richmond there’s an endless sea of forgotten Dinesh D’Souza documentaries or whatever that gets…
