Sometimes I'll drop something without immediately picking it up, and if I'm with a younger friend it will drive them absolutely batshit. Young man, there's a very good chance I'm going to drop a lot more things in the next few moments, let's not rashly incurvate anything just yet.

"What time is it, Ben? Say it!"

For as stylish as the whole production is, it comes off rather charmless.

Pure Lib-mindedness. Everything is quid pro quo. If a group fails to turn out in significant enough numbers for a winning candidate, then that group should expect to be punished. They can't imagine an office holder not penalizing his "enemies."

Other than that, there's very little I've been able to find that predates the radio show but, afterwards, it pops up a lot in editorials, letters to the editor, etc. After the TV show debuts, I can't find it used in any context except regarding Superman.

There was that period for like three months where they started trying out "mate" and I'll be honest, it was hard not to give in.

Make a joke for twelve online friends and find yourself an inextricable part of a total stranger's pathology, it's the social media promise!

More negligent fathers need to start blaming terrorism for shitty parenting. "Sorry I couldn't make your recital, Tiger, it would have made you vulnerable to the Ulster Volunteers."

I was just reading Orwell's "Can Socialists Be Happy," which suggests that utopia isn't a "perfect society" so much as it is the eternal struggle to build a perfect society. If small victories in that struggle aren't good enough to celebrate, that's unhappy news! What else is there?

One time I soured an interview that I'm pretty sure I was acing by laughing when they told me they were putting internet on a refrigerator.

We noticed that too. On the rewatch it inherits all of Andor's gravitas. Even Jyn feels more fleshed out and she wasn't even in the show!

I'd like to get Gordo in front of more eyes, so I've got a goal of connecting with 1K followers on that account. Wanna help? Reposting does wonders, and nobody's gonna complain about seeing Gus Arriola's art on their timeline! Hundreds of strips to choose from!

Spidey meets the Dallas Cowboys? Check. Spidey meets the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders? Check. A battle on the oil sands? Of course! A visit to the world-famous Dallas Ballet? Well, how about a visit to the Dallas Ballet, anyway? Check.

If it works the same way on other famous flicks, I might very well have just discovered my new pastime. Whaddya imagine Beyond The Valley of the Dolls looks like? Bosom Buddies maybe?
