Chicago, if you didn't have even worse winters than New England you'd be the perfect city. As it is, you're real damn close, though.

Springsteen fans are the boomer Swifties. They would d!3 for that man long before any elected official or political belief.

I was this morning years old when I learned "Billy, Don't Be a Hero" was originally recorded by Paper Lace, and that the version by Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods was a cover from later the same year. Both have their charms, but I prefer the Heywoods' version.

define “deserved better”

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

you know who else came from chicago and was on "a mission from god"

My friend Joe wins the Internet: "Da prayers."

God may strike me down now for it now but I'm still putting ketchup on my hot dogs, dammit.

Suddenly the door to the balcony at St. Peter's Basilica opens and John Cena's music hits.

Get ready for your grand entrance, @michaelianblack.bsky.social

This episode of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea has some of the Seaview crew held prisoner in a Latin American dictatorship. Given how much of the "compound" consists of palm trees, small hacienda-style buildings & large hangar size structures I'm 99% sure it's just the lot outside their soundstage.

This "your friend's cute mom" version of Pamela Anderson is the best of all Pamela Andersons.

The Internet would like me to tell you that I said Gabriel Luna in my post about Rogue One / Andor when I meant to say Diego Luna. I apologize for the error and kindly request that my family please be released from captivity.

There it is…

Is it worth giving Andor a shot even if I didn't enjoy Rogue One (or, as my son and I call it, "Don't Get Too Attached: A Star Wars Story")?

If I'm very, very lucky it would be Mr. Peabody, but I'm almost certainly doomed to a life of Shermanhood.

There are now thought pieces on people who blame "woke" for turning them into racists. PSA: you were always racist pieces of shit. I hope you get deep anal cysts that ceaselessly drain and infect your nether regions. I hope your children disown you and that your dog is stolen.

"Bob Howard It Ain't" Double Feature Night

Some people call it the Sunday Scaries, my mom always called it the Sunday Night Decline, but either way it's the dread and loathing of the weekend's end and having to start all over again on Monday morning. This week, I'm tackling that feeling head on.

A bitter truth to swallow on Star Wars Day... we'd have been better off without the sequel trilogy. I even enjoyed two of the three and I still say that.

So Toni Storm, Harley Cameron, the I(i)conic Peyton Royce and Billie Kay, Rhea Ripley when she's of a mind to be... are all female wrestlers from Australia just naturally funny?

So. An audio course. In data VISUALIZATION. Okay, LinkedIn Learning. Okay.

Hey, @mikester.bsky.social, do these look familiar at all?

Repost with your favorite Star Trek crew, wrong answers (or oh-so-right ones, I'm not the boss of you) only.
