Pretty funny that the only Bengals player to shake Vance's hand was also, famously, a pick everyone hated

Before Hugh Jackman was cast, legendary X-Men writer Chris Claremont said that his ideal Wolverine would be played by Bob Hoskins

This is probably more of a translation choice/mistake but Oskar reading Goosebumps nine years before the book was published always takes me out of Let The Right One In lol

Cincinnati finally has the pieces they need to win it all but this team is so fucking sloppy through three games. Penalties all over the o-line in weeks one in two, whatever the fuck was going on with the defense and special teams in week three. Embarrassing performances all around for a good team.

Mock his look all you like, it's common knowledge that Meatwad gets the honeys

I've heard a lot of "my teachers turned the TV on" stories but my experience was similar to this. My teacher told us because she felt we should know, but the school admin explicitly told her to act cool and zip it.

Most people are nostalgic for Blockbuster but my hometown also had a Family Video, Hollywood Video, and a local place called Sensation Station. My parents would rotate through the four stores, racking up late fees and waiting until one would clear their accounts. Family Video was especially lenient.

I remember Sensation Station being an impressive operation for a small business. They had a strong brand identity, like a video store you'd see in a movie, but by the mid-2000s, most of their business came from tanning beds by the mid-2010s it was a full-time tanning salon.

Hollywood Video actually replaced Blockbuster for a short time when it went out of business in the mid-2000s. We celebrated Blockbuster's demise by renting like seventeen movies from Hollywood Video.

Family Video had the free kids movies section which was a wild assortment of mainstream stuff like Disney and obscure shit like the bizarre 1996 Sonic the Hedgehog OVA which I rented repeatedly. Since Family Video forgave late fees after like six months, I have the most nostalgia for it.

Probably not the first person to make this point but socially conscious folks didn't pick up "y'all" to be folksy, it's because it's gender neutral

My brother gave our SNES away to a girl he liked on a whim and years later I got it back at garage sale with a box of games including Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Perfect Dark, Star Fox, and Michael Jordan: Chaos In the Windy City for $25

I fear Nick Chubb will be underrated simply because he played with the worst uniforms in the league for most of his career
