The stamps were kind of a done deal by the time I was old enough to buy my own music, but i knew kids whose older siblings had some.

oh, for sure. I'm just sayin' I know a lot of women from my hometown turned out that way - but there were plenty of "skipped town and never looked back" cases too.

I know you're just screwing around but seriously, there's an entire cottage industry out there telling Decent God Fearin' Christian Women that true liberation comes in total submission to a Godly man.

I absolutely agree with you re the senator - he railroaded Daniel Holden through a murder conviction for political gain, not out of a desire to see the truth found out. He never BOTHERED seeking exculpatory information, just went straight to trial with a witness we now know to be, uh, not the most reliable sort. …

Yeah. With the help of a professional makeup artist working to make you look like you aren't wearing makeup, plenty of women I went to school with could look that nice.

That sounds right. I wouldn't rule out any/all of them being drunk/high as shit, though. Someone upthread made the suggestion that Hanna actually hung herself, and shitty forensics plus a DA with dreams of becoming a State Senator turned it into a murder investigation, and that's so incredibly fucking plausible that…

Yeah, man. I grew up a few towns over from Griffin, where Rectify is filmed, and the pilot was so incredibly real that I had to pause it and stop for a minute. I dated a couple of girls who lived over in Griffin. That was the nearest Walmart to my parents' place for a couple years.

Weren't they all high as shit on shrooms? Or was it just Hanna? Because if Georgie was stoned out of his skull, he might not remember exactly what happened - maybe HE killed her and was so fucked up he doesn't remember?

It's part of the sheer genius of this show that we spend three seasons rooting for Daniel to pull it off and prove his innocence and survive in society, and then puts GIANT ASSHOLE Trey in the same situation as if to look at the audience and say "Well, now what, dear viewers? Is your hate for Trey enough to allow you…

If they go with a "The Senator did it" twist, fuck this show forever. That's some Law & Order bullshit.

The recapper also thought it was Daniel's dream sequence and not Tawney's, so uh, yeah.

re point 4 - if Pauley is where it's supposed to be (south Georgia along the Flint River), Nashville is at least six hours away.

So now that we binged through the entire show in maybe three weeks, I have a ridiculous observation to make…

So I just got done with a three-day Saints Row IV binge, and I gotta say… I think I prefer the SR franchise to Grand Theft Auto, honestly. It's not trying to be A Serious Meditation like GTA IV was, or tell a cinematic story like GTA V - it's just fucking around with your friends and seeing how over the top things…

That's allegedly what the early drafts WERE - Woody was much more explicitly jealous of Buzz, and actively tried to undermine him in front of the other toys.

Woody and Jessie are from the same toyline! That's INCEST!

A friend who works at a comic shop sent my five year old probably 20 pounds of stuff out of their warehouse that was never gonna sell. Old Archie TMNT and 80s Marvel and complete runs of the Marvel Universe Handbook and DC Whos Who. Pretty rad.

As a kid, I thought the bigger the Joe vehicle, the better. As I got older, I realized that the best ones are the vehicles that fit in one hand, so you can fight the vehicle that's in your other hand. Duh.

I skipped buying it for the exact same reason. I'm having similar misgivings about the equally-huge Devastator that just came out. I mean, it's a giant fuckin' Devastator! But I have no room for it! But I can just display the Constructicons as individuals! But who gives a fuck about the individual Constructicons?!

Yup. The rights issues with GoBots is complicated. Hasbro, makers of Transformers, own the GoBots IP outright - the character names, the biographies, the backstory. They don't own the original toys, which are held by Bandai, a Japanese toymaker, and I don't believe they own the rights to the Challenge of the…
