From what I gathered, Coolio’s record label gave the approval, and Weird Al was under the impression that they had Coolio sign off on it when he hadn’t.

Coolio was more annoyed with his label, but the press had to make it into some dumb Weird Al / Coolio beef.  

With NieR: Automata and NieR: Replicant’s recent popularity, it’s a bit more plausible than $2m for SMB.

Yeah, the scam isn’t even plausible, like a rare prototype or a one-off edition for a celebrity or Nintendo executive. It’s just fucking Super Mario Brothers.

Thank you.  The amount of filler was ridiculous.  I kept skipping ahead and it was still just non-stop runtime padding.

I hate that movies no longer have Roman numerals.  I have no idea what order I’m supposed to watch certain franchises in without consulting Wikipedia or IMDB now.

The odd use of Gangsta’s Paradise was more baffling to me.

Reminds me of the first X-Men movie, where they go out of their way to shit on the comic book costumes and went with “cool” black leather.

Now people are oohing and aaahing over Richard E. Grant in yellow & green spandex.

It’s Grindr for rednecks.

Or Grindr.

Right. I’ve bought tickets to hockey games where the season ticket holder couldn’t make the game, or gave a friend who worked nights a few extra bucks to grab concert tix right as they went on sale at 9am from a physical Ticketmaster outlet.

Pacific Rim had a pretty plausible explanation for why kaiju parts were so valuable, if I recall.  

The NYC-based SNL has been making fun of him for decades, even.

IIRC, his aides would often show him executive orders of whatever crazy or illegal thing he demanded, and then discreetly swap it out with some generic text document right before he signed it.

Now playing

He gave a pre-recorded speech at that MyPillow guy’s derp-fest. Trump looks like he can barely sit up straight, his voice is ragged, and his eyes are barely open.

At the two minute mark:

Must have the mid-shift working on that Talking Point bot.

He was the District Attorney lording over some backwater Alabama shithole and essentially bulletproof.

I think even Trump underestimated how cult-ish his base is. He thought he needed Pence to shore up his Evangelical base when they would have gleefully murdered Pence to get an inch closer to sniff one of Trump’s greasy KFC farts.

The weird thing is Trump is objectively uncharismatic. His speeches are boring, rambling, incoherent whine-fests spat out by a child with a limited vocabulary and no talent for creative analogies or wordplay. His writing is that of a borderline illiterate spoiled child throwing a tantrum. He even looks ridiculous.

Hitle

Obama himself read his autobiograpphy for the audio version, and he talks about a foul-mouthed college friend name Ray, whom he quotes directly, if you’re curious to hear Obama swearing.

I remember it came out that Roy Moore’s ENTIRE TOWN had a system in place to keep him away from underage girls, to the point there was a rotating group of volunteers at high school football games to ensure a teenage girl going to the concessions stand or restroom was always in someone’s eyeline to ensure Moore didn’t
