For years some friends and I used “corpulent dullard” as a go-to silly insult. We got it got it from Edgar Rice Burroughs.

Genocide from watching Doctor Who. I’m not sure whether it was the Daleks or the Doctor themselves. Before Dr. Who I was just your run-of-the-mill alien overlord, now I can’t stop annihilating entire planets. Luckily in my profession, this is seen as a positive attribute.

Chris Thile has vastly improved the musical side of the show and he makes a pretty decent host. It’s not the same show without Keillor’s story-telling, but maybe it’s a better show. I’ve listened off and on for eons and Keillor singing romantic duets with young women was getting really old (and a bit creepy).

That damned Obama, firing the guy, just so we’d hire him out of spite!

Wrong, The Thing IS them all.

Dang it, left off the list again!

I’ve spent many a fine summer evening on Venus. Of course we Electroids are a bit tougher than you flimsy monkeyboys. For you, The pressure will squash you, the heat will carbonize your remains and the sulfuric acid will corrode whatever’s left. Wimps.

They travel east and set themselves up as “kings of Kafiristan” using their superior military training. Unfortunately, one pushes the envelope too far and brings the whole scheme crashing down. The survivor gets crucified.

I’ve read that Tom was a doll belonging to Tolkien’s daughters and he made up many Bombadil songs and stories to amuse the girls. Sticking him into TLoR was just a treat for the kids.

Exactly. Tom and Goldberry are avatars or personifications of nature. They are “part of the machine” of creation and are apart and unconcerned with the petty squabbles of men, hobbits and orks. 

How about the adventures of Gimli and Legolas exploring caves and forests? We could make it a buddy cop episodic adventure series. Gimli always gets the girl at the end of the show. 

Fair enough.

Sounds like a plan!

loads of hobbit rape and murder, more dragons..

Endless elf names piled upon elf names until they all blend together into one unintelligible blob of pseudo-celtic bullshit.

Bummed, likley. At least Koenig got to star in one film and play a great character in Babylon 5.

He hangs out with sweat hogs.

The dude “collects typewriters”. (I’m assuming that’s a creepy euphemism.)

Yeah, but everybody has known that Christan Slater was a nutjob for a long long time. The original poster’s point was that we can now expect to hear all of the bad stuff our “well-liked” celebrities have been up to as well as the obvious jackasses.

“Well, sure he’s a child molester, but at least he’s humble and full of good will.” Somehow, I don’t think “team spirit” get’s one off on these charges.
