Obviously I'm biased, but I promise this is well worth your time.

If you're going out tomorrow night in Manhattan, NONE OF YOU ARE SAFE
BUT KNOW THIS: I am going out with friends on the 12th of December, and, like every year, if we end up in a place with an internet Jukebox, I WILL play Wham's Last Christmas as many times as I possibly can, just to ruin your stupid fucking game.

I think it's very annoying that by "tech" (see: techno-optimism) people only refer to the most recent, most hyped investment tool. So that if you don't buy the hype of the most recent bullshit, you're anti-tech. I'm not anti-food if I don't buy White Castle's new sliders, bro.

UK-ers: When you say aloud the name of the SLade song, do you say "Merry Christmas Everybody" or "Merry Xmas Everybody?"
Like, do you say KRIST-mas or EX-mas?

My 12-year-old son has a question and I suggested I would pose it to anyone reading this:
If one of Santa’s elves commits a murder and then dies, do they go to Hell?

I sometimes wonder about what Orville Gibson would think if he'd known how closely his name would someday be associated with the devil.

I'm watching the 2019 CHRISTMAS CAROL with Guy Pearce. It's padded to like over 3 hours. The performances are good, the sets and costumes are about as good as they get. But the extra stuff is, without exception, not good.

This is probably meant as a joke but is 100% true.
FROM DUSK TILL DAWN would have been better if it starred Matthew Lillard and Paul Dano.

This opinion is mostly correct, though it's not weird. Honkies are so boring we've /ruined the flavor attributed to us./
Does nobody else think it weird that "vanilla" has become a shorthand for safe, boring, clean, unadventurous? For a start, vanilla is fucking delicious, with a taste like no other spice. It's expensive, rare and only grows in a handful of places. Sensual on every level.

I have a joke about Midas that's gold, but I'm still never happy with it.
I had to basically harrow Hell to come up with my perfect Orpheus joke, and just before I was going to let it loose, I reviewed it... and it just vanished.
I thought I had 3 jokes about Cerberus, but I was getting ahead (and ahead and ahead) of myself.

It's (understandably) getting terrible reviews, and it is near-incomprehensible even IF you saw the first one yet are not immersed in game lore, but I saw the FNAF2 movie in a room full of middle schoolers. They repeatedly en masse lost their fucking minds over it.

Mostly useless for tourists, or anyone in the outer boroughs. Or uptown. But if you're planning on moving to Manhattan, the following may be of some use:

I'm like 50/50 on whether or not the Wendy's Carvers sub-sub-plot in The Chair Company is the creators trying to fuck up IRL search engine AI algorithms.

Getting around to Stranger Things five, I had seen a bunch of people mentioning how this cast is far too old to be playing the age they’re meant to be. And honestly, the jokes didn’t even do justice to how jarring it is. They really should’ve tried to set this in 1994 or something.

Actually doing Whamageddon at Christmas is a moral failing, you should be listening to Last Christmas at least once a day if not ten

Remembering the Thanksgiving when my mom was recommending a movie called The Robot and Frank, but I thought she was saying “The Robot Anne Frank.”
