(The Dark Knight is playing every minute on the minute at movie theaters, supermarkets, churches, bowling alleys, and state fairs across the country.)
“I would like to close by saluting the following individuals who apparently watched the same movie that I did. Go ahead and dismiss me as an uptight, stiff old curmudgeon who doesn’t know when to turn off his brain and simply sit back and enjoy the ride, but that’s the point. The Dark Knight is being celebrated for its brains, but it doesn’t have a brain. All it has is a thoughtless, empty skull. Be careful what you wish for, world. You might just get it.”

Hulu Users Love ‘McStroke’ Long Time
Episode 6.8 of Family Guy, in which Peter eats too many burgers, has a stroke and subsequently confronts factory farming, is still one of Hulu’s most popular television episodes after several months, though I can’t say for precisely how long. User comments were decisively negative the first week or two after the episode was made available online, but people have generally turned around.

My friend Dave encouraged me to check out this new web series starring Neil Patrick Harris. Fast-forward through the blog to get to the good stuff.
I surprisingly enjoyed it. I wonder what it says that web properties are popping up with minimalist web design and ambiguous financial backing. Is this the end of the dot content bust or the beginning of a new boom?
All that stuff Sam said, too, but honestly, I’m just straight geeking out. Harris + Fillion/Whedon = nerdgasm.
All that stuff Ben said, too, but honestly, the hammer is my penis.
Ah, the crossover I hoped for when I last interviewed JustSomeRandomGuy

Keith:um, you didn't make a mistake, you know. On the writeup. I changed it because we have Adam and Andrew as Ep. 17. Mike is ep 18.
me:really?
wait.
they were 17?
goddamn it.
Keith:Yeah they were.
me:i listed them as 16
great.
Keith:You have the Benten guys as 16.
Even on the picture.
“I want Asian food. Didn’t hear me? Asian!”

Curious, I bothered to google the next best website in lifecasting.
One day up and look at the fourth hit.
“It’s not an understatement when we say that Nonsociety will very likely change the way all of us—and that includes generations yet unborn—look at the web, the world, and ourselves.
