Gonna try to get my money back.

Guys. I think it’s time I come clean. I hired an Etsy witch to make this game go to 17 innings.

Don’t have to play the Jays if your game never ends!

I am loving this announcing duo where one seems overjoyed and the other one is tired.

Tigers vs Mariners going to extra innings!? Don’t mind if I do!

From this Guardian article: “Louis CK should count himself lucky; if he’d been caught with his dick in his hand in Najd, rather than Colorado, he may well have retained neither of those appendages (punitive limb amputation is an actual thing).”

‘Amoral, evil’: vitriolic backlash builds against comics who played Riyadh festival

Murder by bone-saw, lashings for rape victims, punishment amputation, jail for satirists … these are the Saudi human rights abuses fuelling the fury being directed at the likes of Louis CK, Dave Chapp...

Tanis. I assume I would be worshipped like unto a God.

Unless somebody tells me different, I will continue to assume that this is a tax write off or somebody filling a contractual obligation.

Like, I guess I could KIIIIIINDA see it getting a “so bad it’s good” cult following, but i always felt it didn’t even warrant that! It was the first I had ever heard of anybody speaking fondly of Tron and not using it as shorthand for “trash flop.”

I was informed today that young people like this? Um. Ok. What’s up fellow kids! I have to ask: why? Is it just nostalgia for the garbage of your youth? Which took place in 2010? (Excuse me as I just shuffle off this mortal coil!)

Pretty confused by how TRON became a big-budget movie franchise. Was it a bit hit when it came out? No. Did it become a big hit on video/TV? Also no. Do people have fond nostalgic memories of it? Eh kinda but not really. Was it secretly great and critically acclaimed? No again
