    One day I would like to see a logo redesign that made it look better instead of soulless and terrible. Can anyone give a counterexample?

    Pet peeve: when archers are ordered to "fire" in a period film. Before gunpowder, that term made no sense.

    Every bad thing J. Jonah Jameson perpetrated was redeemed in this single scene. Post some similar moments from film or book. I’m not baiting - I just want to know of more such terrific bits.

    I’m sure everyone knows this but mammal predators typically have far larger brains than prey animals. Example: a cat’s brain is ~30cc. A rabbit’s is 10-12 cc.

    I worked in the computer game industry for 24 years. I have met Gabe personally. This is 100% a realistic fear. Gabe is barring the gate to Hell. There are others like him, but he is one.

    Okay looky here whippersnapper. I WROTE the original Doom backstory. First off, it’s not genocide to blow demons back to Hell. Second, well … I got nothing else. You hit the nail on the head.

    for anyone who's unaware, this is the most accurate description of what our media has become ever. Surf Dracula. Don't forget it.

    For those doubting, Thai commercials are the best in the world. Possibly the entire solar system.

    Americans call it “soccer” because when it came to the USA, the common UK slang for the sport was “soccer” and we kept it. We called it “soccer” before the UK called it football. So screw you guys.
