Also, Community, which is especially absurd in the case of the episode where Chang dons black facepaint to play... a dark elf. Guess it was thought that any real dark elf viewers could be offended.

I mean he doesn't even need to have Alzheimer's. He's pushing 80 and is completely intellectually incurious, he abhors reading and only watches Fox all day long. That alone could have rotted his brain at this point.

Oooh, I didn't even know it had a sequel!

I wouldn't say it flirts with the supernatural as much as it's with one foot into weird fiction, which is where cosmic horror comes from.

Not so fun fact: Trump is actually a fan of the way China handled that. Here's the quote:

"Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength.That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak... as being spit on by the rest of the world."

Blindsight is such a great novel. It has not one, not two but three great sci-fi concepts rolled into one book.

One is artificial intelligence (the ship's captain is an AI), the second is alien life so vastly different it appears incomprehensible to human minds. And last but not least, and the most wild, vampires as a evolutionary branch of humanity that died out and has been recreated in the future.

Also, newspaper writers were paid like shit. E.A. Poe was the editor of a fairly big newspaper and a published author (though not very sucessful except for The Raven) and was still constantly on the verge of financial collapse.

No, of course not. But it's funny how he openly admits to his ignorance. He still gives a great performance and was obviously very well liked by the rest of the cast.

The ultra rich are fucking weird in general. Too much money warps your soul quicker than the One Ring.

Well, the mother also liquifies her own innards and regurgitates them to feed her young, dying in the process so there's that.

He's been known to write inappropriate texts to underage girls for a while now, this is likely just the tip of the yuck-berg.

That's a capitalism weakness, not a human weakness though.

Yeah, it's pretty great. Only movie that I had to rewatch immediately after the first time.

Triangle looks like a generic "slasher on a ship" horror movie at first, but is actually a lot more twisted and clever than that. >!It's actually about a time loop.!<

Although the interviews with the cast are hilarious just because Hugh Grant doesn't have a single clue about DnD but also couldn't give a single fuck about it.

Or a serial killer.

So what you're saying is that upper management have always been flailng, narcissistic idiots.

Also, don't eat their food! As in, don't trust their recipes.

Fight Club. Edward Norton. Tyler is Kermit and the end is "Jack" realizing Tyler is just a hand puppet that he controls.

I really like idea that they only look sexy to us the player because we're human and that they look Turian to a Turian, Salarian to Salarians and so on because they emit something (pheromones or empathy waves) that alters the perception of other races.
