People fundamentally do not understand that SW is essentially intended for kids. It's cool that some of the games, books, and other media are darker and more adult, but the movies are kid movies. ESB and ROTS are "dark" at times but still in a way that kids can process.

It's the *third time* it's been posted. And it's not at all interesting. It reads like a middle school essay.
I've lost track, but I thought the mayor was the nominal "chair of the board," appointed some board members, and/or had more oversight than is being presented here. Or is that just an ex officio kind of role?
It would be better with a random Muses shoe in there.
Too lazy to look it up: is Clavicular a plant, animal, or mineral?
I think "tourist trap" is a place locals wouldn't be caught dead in. That ain't CDM. More like most Bourbon St bars. I guess Mother's too.
I like it when actors parlay a role into some other opportunity that their *character*, not they, has experience and expertise in. Like Gary "Lt. Dan" Sinise and various veteran causes and Richard "The Other Home Improvement guy" Karn and power tools.
Who of us can forget Staingate 1989, when Joe from Safety and Permits spilled his coffee and never cleaned it up?
This does speak to the realpolitik of it all. Cassidy is, of course, a sell out, and his groveling before Trump (especially the RFK stuff) is awful. But, yeah, he's probably not the MAGA nut Letlow is. I don't want to vote for him but we live in the real world.

I'm watching the movie Chef (2014), and it's funny that a major plot point is Jon Favreau's kid is all like "Hey dad, you should check out this cool thing Twitter. Everybody's on it!" How times change...
I really liked the trope in 80's and 90's movies where information was shown being typed on screen like the date or location of the scene and accompanied by weird little electronic noises. Because that's what words inputted on a computer sound like that as they're produced?
Oh good. I was worried the world was going to end before I made an Old Fashioned and ate these coconut shrimp.
Dude's got a machete. No thanks.
I do remember the Cadbury egg commercials. The "yolk" kinda looked good but kinda looked gross.
So what do non NOLA kids get in their Easter baskets if they don't get Elmer's products? Just random candy? Or maybe some pastel colored Skittles?
Extra points if you pronounce it Moe-skas, not Mah-skas.
I did too
It always feel weird seeing the coverage of Maundy Thursday at Dooky Chase and it's nothing but white people.
Tulane baseball has filled that void for me to some extent. I don't know squat about baseball, but the tickets are generally cheap and the vibe is chill.
"Wow, Red, that sure was a Shawshank Redemption!"
Why does someone think there is a need for a tunnel under New Orleans?
I find it funny (and telling) that all the TP coverage of this (non) event is framed like it's Gayle's visit with official business to conduct and her buddy THE FRIGGIN CATHOLIC ARCHBISHOP is kind of just along for funsies.

Yeah, I feel like this is one where the preservationists should have stepped in.
Tolkien breaks wind.
JRR Tolkien is a random side character in Fackham Hall (pronounced "Fuck em all"), an Airplane! kind of satire of period dramas like Downton Abbey. This might be the greatest caption of all time.
Dear every podcast host ever,
Please do not spend the first 5 minutes summarizing the ensuing interview for us. Also, please do not spend 5-10 minutes bantering with the other random hosts or whoever. Just show us the interview. That's why we clicked. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
I'm realizing I'm eating two mayonnaise-based items for dinner: chicken salad made from leftover tandoori chicken and potato salad from crawfish boil leftovers. But I'm not apologizing.
More moronic "content" from the TP. I think a "not dignifying that with a answer" kind of approach would have been just fine.

So weird
Oh fuck no. SO WEIRD.
I asked them to cancel my subscription and they came back to me with a $29.95 rate, which I accepted. More than half off. How can you not feel like a sucker when you have no idea what the "real" rate is or what others are paying? It really does feel like dealing with Cox or T-Mobile or something.
