    Wasn’t so long ago that someone would get laughed out of a room for taking the internet this seriously. People never planned for the inevitability of the internet being central to modern life, and, years later, here we are.

    So, to whomever needs to hear it: Maybe start taking things like what this person is saying a little more seriously going forward.









  • Don’t forget the rather unfortunate usage of a bunch of people cruising around in the Confederate car all being named “Duke.”

    See, there was once a man named David, who was the leader of a wacky little group of goofballs back in the '70s. That li’l jokester even went so far as to get everyone to call him a grand wizard, which is such a zany thing to ask people to do, but people totally did it with a straight face

    Anyway, I wonder if it’s a coincidence. Who knows?




  • Geoffrey the Giraffe, the original model for the Toys R Us mascot, tragically gave his life rescuing civilians during the September 11th, 2001, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City. The image for the mascot was changed out of respect, as the company didn’t want to posthumously use his image. The company has since struggled to find a suitable replacement.





  • About time, too! It felt like nobody was talking about it through the whole first half of this season, and I was starting to get worried it was gonna get passed over, which would be criminal.

    Especially since telling my friends, “Yooo, one of my favorite mangas is getting an adaptation. You guys gotta watch it. It’s gonna blow up, I swear.” Then…near-total silence. Started making me sweat, hah.
