"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I have never been to Paris but I can't believe that's true, because New York pizza is The Worst.

Chuck E. Cheese would beg to differ.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

phooey. Our dryer just died. I guess we're shopping for appliances this weekend. Good thing there aren't any spendy holidays coming up, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I forget if this has been lined to before:

Superman vs. Muhammad Ali

I like how Batman and Lex Luthor have ringside seats.

No sooner does reporter Clark Kent stumble across Muhammad Ali shooting hoops in Metropolis’ “inner city ghetto” than an despotic alien named Rat’lar appears to talk intergalatic trash. Specifically, Rat’lar is Emperor of the warlike Scrubb race, and he challenges earth’s champion to fisticuffs. If said Earth champion loses, Earth will be destroyed. If said champion wins, Earth will be spared.

The question: Who will be Earth’s champion? Superman claims the right, but Ali points out — quite rightly — that Superman is a Kryptonian, not an Earthman. Rat’lar isn’t having any of this Terran shilly-shallying — he’s got minions to yell at, and that fist of his doesn’t shake itself, after all — so he orders the two men to decide the issue by duking it out in 24 hours’ time.

From 1978, but just reissued....

I really want to get the rubber duckie nativity for my niece. I'll bet she doesn't have that in her collection.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

People are criticizing the NASA announcement even before they make it: [link]

the angle being used to sell the story is that this might have implications for alien life. Of course, the results have nothing to do with aliens. If anything, they expand the possibilities of what alien life might look like. If bacteria on Earth can exist using a biochemistry that’s very different to that of other microbes, it stands to reason that aliens could do the same.
