Got Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries running on my laptop, which is cool.

Instant Action mode is always a fun diversion, and the game works smoothly with my gamepad, too.

so far Rooster reminds me of Knives Out…

…if Knives Out had been made in a poorly ventilated garage with a pile of turpentine soaked rags in the corner

"I heard you got busted by Simon and Simon."

"Oh, like you're one to talk. At least I never got foiled by the Blue Moon Detective Agency."

"Dear god... the witty banter and unresolved sexual tension. I'd rather get worked over by Hunter than go through that again."

"I beat out Al Molinaro and Jesse White for this role."
Does anyone else have an MST3K line they use regularly, even if it makes no sense out of context?

Because I have both "That'll keep your panfish down for a while." and "Come come, boys, we must confound Jerry at every turn!" from MST3K the movie alone.

This episode of The Magician features a high...uh, rather *medium* speed chase between a Winnebago and a station wagon which I assume will climax 3/4 of a mile down the road when both run out of gas.

Replaying the original Halo, and the open world sequences which were a selling feature back in 2001 are some of the most annoying bits in 2026.

What we like to call "the good shit," all pulled from the VHS transfers.

These were actually one-hour syndication episodes made of two 30 minute blocks pulled from different original episodes, but I split them up for better indexing.

up there with Willie Nelson in the "just waiting on the 1970s so they can unfurl their freak flag" category

Bless whoever said "Let's put a guy who marries classic Vaudeville to experimental film-making at the center of our show to educate young children."

And doubly bless the person who said "Sure, why not?"
The Muppet sketch has Kermit (dressed like a 70s porn star) channeling Timothy Leary and speaking acidhead slang to a square about the magic of "visual thinking."

I have located one of my retrotrash holy grails after long years of searching.

Was it worth it?

I'll let the opening credits and cast list answer that for me.

Keith got Augustus around the exact same time we got Apito, and their parallel evolution since has been something to behold.

a thing I do:

Toss in period appropriate news segments about the civil rights struggle, Vietnam War, and the space program between episodes of Ed Sullivan, Star Trek, and other late 1960s TV shows.

The clean technicolor utopia versus the reality of the moment.

Re: Chomsky

1. Old folks get weird in depressing ways.

2. Career academics tend to indulge in a lot of ethical gymnastics regarding pals and patrons, especially after hitting certain levels of renown and higher ed’s fucked up power structure.
