Yeah, I’d love to fucking move on.  But I’ve got two kids under 5 that can’t be vaccinated yet.  I have to think about them.  And yes, it’s going to be endemic, but our hospitals are fucking full.  Right now.  So stop being a selfish asshole, and think about others for a minute.

I loved Quantum Leap as a kid, and my wife and I started watching Columbo during the pandemic, so needless to say I was really excited when he showed up.  Though with him being the murder victim with maybe 3 scenes, I assumed that was an early role for him.  Found out by reading this article that I was wayyyy off on…

Cool, I hope you like it!  I’m glad at least someone appreciated the super specific comparison.

May I also suggest Amy Gabba and The Almost Famous? A lot more polished and poppy than the other two, but in a similar vein: https://amygabba.bandcamp.com/album/the-heart-is-stupid

For those curious about some newer ska bands since the article didn’t really mention any:

I have long joked that ska will never die for one main reason - there will always be horn playing marching band kids that want to be in a “cool” band.  To be clear, I view this as a very good thing.

Edna’s Goldfish was great!  I think their bassist played in a newer band called The Nix 86 - check them out too.

When will you bring the hamburglar to justice?

but the movie has a batting average of roughly one fun moment for every three attempts (fun-batted-in is a baseball thing, right?)

I really enjoyed it.  Compared to the other 3D Mario Games that I’ve played, it’s really structured more like a 2D side scroller, that just also happens to be 3D.  And Cat Mario is just delightful.  Also, the later levels provided some challenges that I felt were completely missing from the Galaxy games so I…

You really misspelled Columbo there.

I’m happy to see all the Rosenstock love this year, but every time I see it in a list, I can't help but think, "where was the love when Worry came out"?

Look, should I throw some money at this?  Probably not.  But I really loved when they were in production on Maladroit and they were releasing demos and updated recordings daily.  It was a level of access and insight into putting an album together that I’ve never seen before or since, and IT WAS COMPLETELY FREE.  Right…

I have only watched a fraction of what you've watched, but they are an enjoyable and kind of calming experience.  I've seen them live a bunch of times, from a house show up to several hundred people, and they always kill it.

So, regular Vera Farmiga?

Before scrolling down, I went to IMDb look at Martin Short’s filmography because I was absolutely certain that he starred in a movie with the big red dog. Turns out I had just assumed all along that the movie Clifford had something to do with the dog, and I was completely wrong.

Yeah, specifically, HBO Max is funding the Snyder Cut, so I assume this guy has gotten a couple e-mails from their fans.  I took the kind words about VB fans at face value because, well, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a VB fan be an asshole online.  Passionate, maybe, but I don’t think I’ve seen the toxicity that you…

I love this for two reasons:
