Debating whether the Wuthering Heights trailer is too sexy, instead of agreeing that the book's characters are the most insufferable coterie of morons ever scorched into English literature.

That or the entire Colonial-era population of NYC collaborated to make this because the ghost afterlife was crowding rapidly.

Guy who can't organize a ballot insists he's best choice to coordinate city of 8 million.

Thieves who deserved to be punished eternally: checks out

On the other hand, Prometheus actually gave humanity something useful.
