No one can be told what the Matrix is.

You're thinking about it too much. There's a Peanuts strip where Charlie Brown starts freaking out about the red-haired girl and it ends with him opining that he's too young to get a mortgage (he's so anxious that in his head he's married to her and he's working himself up about all the problems that entails - and yet

Forgiveness is overrated. Letting go is probably a good thing. But one isn't predicated on the other. In fact, I would even hazard a guess that they are mutually exclusive.

Human beings aren't, though.

"Oh no! I've killed a hippie! Now I'll go to pwison and get raped in the showers by Mr. Big whose in with the warden!"

You don't have players like mine, then.

What's not to like? You sit around a table with some dice and pieces of paper with your friends, drink some beers, make a lot of Monty Python references, and pretend to kill imaginary monsters and take their stuff. Perfect for the amateur thespian/mathematician in all of us!

Source of both the Auromvorax and Froghemoth. Good times.

The McRib is back.

Those action figures do not stand up on their own, no matter what you do.

I'd eat whatever the fuck I wanted* if I worked out sixteen hours a day and parkoured across rooftops at night fighting supervillains, too!

I don't doubt it. But it's going to be a problem if their shows keep limping out of the gate.

This is probably an heretical position, but I think the Netflix "dump a season at once" plan is flawed. There's no way to react to fans or critics when the show misfires, because it's already done and finished. Agents of SHIELD and the CW superhero shows can tweak the formula and shore up their problems - not always

Any version of the Punisher that doesn't lean hard into the fact that he's a serial killer does not interest me.

Naw man, bald Hulk is a reasonable colossus.

Absolutely! I think there's even a version of She-Hulk (sadly, the lame one) who fits that pretty much to a T.

Hmm… sure. Canonically, Bruce Banner has at least 20 alternate personalities, most of them various Hulks. Stands to reason at least one of them is a Sam Jackson version of the Hulk.
