My pet theory is that Hegseth could only exist in a world where all WW2 combat veterans or dead or in old folks homes. Otherwise, he’d be straight up murdered. Can you imagine someone who flew 25 combat missions dodging Nazi flak and burying friends putting up with this drunk?

Practical effects can’t be beat. The children yearn for puppets.

Great, now I’m gonna have, ”do what you want to me, but for God’s sake lay off the Bacardi,” running through my head all week.

I don’t remember but I really only follow Muppets and YIMBY urbanists so unless you posted something about single stair reform, it must have been muppet related.

See, I came from the opposite direction. I followed you after a banger Muppet post. The sexy selfies were a real surprise.

Yeah, I’m apparently only noticeably Texan when I’m angry or talking to my parents.

Where does this madness end? Are raisins forbidden in your delicatessen of terror!

This is the real reason they can’t remake Big Trouble in Little China. You could cast most of the movie in your sleep but James Hong and Victor Wong are irreplaceable.

Same, but I’m still sad about the giant frog.

Weak sauce. You’ve got to change it to the 3rd verse of the Battle Hymn of the Republic.

Yeah, Dracula lore made a lot more sense once I learned that he has Roma henchmen, not because he‘s a vampire, but because he’s a Romanian nobleman.

I don’t know, vibes told me Fetterman was a weirdo from the very start. And what do you know, he turned out to be a weirdo. I’m not discounting vibes anymore. And Newsom‘s vibes suck.

I aspire to be as cool as any American in a Japanese wood print, but it’s a daunting task.

One has much less drunken fistfights, but yeah, I agree with your general point.

Lister: Maybe we've been alone in deep space too long but every time I see that show, her body drives me crazy. Is it me?
