  1. Always bank on unspeakable tragedy. That way if you're wrong you're pleasantly surprised.
  2. Well there are a lot of Christians that believe Jesus was very intentional in who he chose to be his disciples. The idea is that he could have chosen much more learned, prestigious religious types of the day, but instead picked out 12 average men. This has all kinds of theological implications which I can go into more detail on if you want to PM me, but that's the gist of it. That being said, the quote from the movie is probably a little forced even holding to that ideology.
  3. Unending Ubiquity
  4. New Andrew Bird album - Are You Serious? Loving it.
  5. Start exhibiting slowly escalating neurotic/OCD behavior. Also keep a preserved dead rat around at all times and call it your pet.
  6. This is true. I've seen video of what praying mantis ladies do to their mates. I didn't sleep that night.
  7. Speaking of robots... So I have deformed knees, which has made my life fairly painful most of the time. I'm just waiting for the day that cybernetics get to the point I can just get the lower two thirds of my legs replaced with robot legs. Long shot, but a guy can hope.
  8. BTW the lady they got to play Mon Mothma...wow how in the world did they find a perfect likeness in both face and voice for the original actress??? That's some amazing casting right there.
  9. First trailer just dropped. http://io9.gizmodo.com/the-rebellion-rises-in-the-first-trailer-for-rogue-one-1769530706 Color me intrigued.
  10. Undetected Umbilicus
  11. http://sploid.gizmodo.com/american-hero-hacks-game-boy-to-run-almost-any-retro-ga-1769361107#_ga=1.233596638.1920271567.1456188151 I want one.
  12. Yeah even if you don't like a character, you're bound to eventually miss something important by skipping their sections.
  13. So yeah Stephen Spielberg is making a BFG movie: http://screenrant.com/bfg-trailer-movie-2016-spielberg/ As a big Dahl fan when I was a kid, this makes me pretty happy.
  14. Big Star - #1 record If you haven't heard of these guys, there's a really interesting documentary on Netflix about them. They were a 70's band that in my opinion were waaaaay ahead of their time musically, got all kinds of critical acclaim, but due to poor management by the label they were under and a bunch of other weird unfortunate coincidences never got commercially successful. They inspired all kinds of big names in rock, but were almost unknown. Sad, weird story but man oh man, every song they wrote on their first two albums should have been a hit single. *edit* You may know a cover version of one of their songs as the theme song from That 70's Show.
