The flip to Left-to-right writing isn’t from just “influence”—it’s actually a pretty direct result of losing WW2 and the US occupation of Japan in 1945 - 1952.

 someone who I broadly disagreed with on another article made one very fine point: often the assholes who take the time to learn to groom and manipulate children do the same to adults. I suspect that was at play.

The thing I find so confounding about the complicity of USAG/MSU/USOC is... why? Once the allegations started to surface, why keep him? Did this shitstain appear to offer anything special? Did he seem to possess unique skills above and beyond the average sports medicine practitioner? Or was it really just the purely…

Portals!!

Y’know, KenTremendous has been really quiet on Twitter about Jags-Pats....

They can win! All they need is an offense, a defense, and some rule changes.

I also laughed at the bad place SWAT team describing Derek as having “some kind of genital deformity”

Fucking funny.

Yep, it was in the closed captions.

I could have sworn that when he jumped into that portal in the end, he shouted, “portals!”

Four fellows fend off fiendish phenomena, finding philosophy and friendship with reformed foul phantasms and newly-feeling female mainframes.

Supersonically serpentine story of souls in a suspicious Shangri-la, studying Sartres.

Ken Tremendous on Twitter, who writes for this show, predicted the score of a Jags-Vikings super bowl at 8-3, with the Jaguars scoring their 8 points on 4 safeties.

I can’t believe I’m rooting for a team this weekend to go to the Super Bowl because a dead character loves his quarterback. Go Bortles

Yea Bortles doesn’t stand a chance against the Pats, but the Jacksonville D could reasonably rattle Brady, especially considering he’s not a young man anymore. I feel like a Blake Bortles-Case Keenum Super Bowl is a Bad Place matchup, but I’d 100% prefer it to seeing Brady and Belichick get another ring.

That running gag really is the gift that keeps on giving. I may never be able to hear the sound of wind chimes the same way again.

Megan Amram recently revealed on Twitter that the first few times she heard Jason’s “BORTLES!” rallying cry she didn’t know what it meant, and thought it was just a nonsense word. Tiya Sircar said she didn’t know either and just thought it was an idiotic mispronunciation of “bottles.”

I’m so glad this show exists.

JORTLES!!
