1.) Then there was of course the great British bandit couple Bonnie and Clive who famously nicked four Flake bars from the druggist’s and, during their escape, threw a toffee apple at the boot of a bobby’s lorry. Scandalized reports ran on the Beeb for weeks, they did.

2.) All in all, let’s face it, youtube was a lot better when it stuck to its lane as “America’s Funniest Home Videos but with the swearing left in”.

3.) What unifies Putin and Trump is that all they care about in the world are wealth and “white identity”, in that order, and bases of support that don’t care about the former as long as they follow through on the latter. That’s it. That’s all. That is the entire ballgame.

4.) When the Fox deal goes down, Disney starts funneling that Marvel money toward a supercomputer that can crunch all pre-existing Simpsons footage until it can procedurally generate episodes until the goddamned stars go out.

5.) If you think about it, it kind of makes sense that the MAGAs love NASCAR so much because, really, what do they want more than a race war?

6.) I mean, sure, sometimes you look at the photo from the end of THE SHINING and think “okay, who is the most attractive person in this picture” because you’ve been single for too long.

7.) I wonder if the pets understand that when I call them “The Weirdest” I really mean “The Best”. Hell, I wonder if people in my life understand that too.

8.) A cabaret where all the drag queens and drag kings take on Amish drag. Fabulous bonnets. Great flowing glued-upon beards. No buttons goddamn anywhere.

9.) Hedonic treadmill? Baby, we are so far beyond the hedonic treadmill. We’re on the hedonic nautilus. We are in the hedonic weight machine doing hedonic leg-presses. We are on hedonic pilates balls, we are engaged in hedonic zumba. This is full-on hedonic cross-fit at this point.
