Soft flour tortillas are underrated as an all-purpose sandwich casing.

I’m entertained by the idea of a divine plane working on Mega Man rules, where after you kill a boss you get its weapon for yourself.

If you’re wearing shoes you aren’t barefoot. The expression “barefoot shoes” makes about as much sense as “naked shirts.”

Una mentions a “couple of litres” of blood. Did she mean pints, and the writers did a find/replace to make it metric and more futurey? Because “a couple of litres” is a lot.

This is months after the previous episode. I think the implication was that Una had been steadily donating blood so they can study it and/or have a stockpile for emergencies. It makes sense as long as they avoid the “hey everyone, magic blood is the cure for death” crap from the second JJ movie.

The only thing that isn’t funny about this is that innocent Ukrainians have to fight him now.

It’s still kind of grimly funny if you think about those Ukranians’ opponent being some dumbass who didn’t even get taught how to soldier in a language he understood before he was scraped from the bottom of the barrel and turned into their cannon fodder.

Meanwhile Picard’s out standing in a circle with two other himselves, all generating a static warp shell together.

I live around 40 miles from where I was born.

My home is where I am and who I’m with now. My spawn point is somewhere I managed to survive long enough to stage my successful escape.

I used to be a huge soda drinker when I was younger, but in my middle age I’ve almost entirely switched to seltzer with a little juice thrown in.

This comment is so good I’m going to sell an NFT of it.

They pad the packing peanuts crate out with brand new furniture.

Even if you are purchasing a 1 euro home, expect to spend between €2,500 - €6,000 for associated fees and taxes. This amount will depend on a variety of factors including size and location of the property.

Barclay is doomed.

It’s the one that’s happened before.

Would it be better to drag it out past the point where it runs out of steam, audiences stop paying attention, and it falls so hard nobody does anything else with the Star Trek brand on TV for a decade or two?

“Will you walk into my parlour?” said a spider to a fly…

Probably A Night at the Opera by Queen, which was the first album I ever bought with my own money. A ton of classic tracks, lots of tonal range, weirdass spatial effects from early-era screwing around with stereophonic production, and a hell of a good time any day of the week.

The best thing about badminton is saying the word “shuttlecock.”

Throw in a Linux VM running under Windows and intensify the Inception noise.

those kids do it for a hobby

The pageants are the parents’ hobby. The kids are whisked into it at a vulnerable stage of development in which they don’t have the agency to decide any of it for themselves.

The trouble with something like that is we already have the 90s Mario movie, and the actors’ performances (visual as well as voice) and the delightfully bonkers direction and production design are the best things about it. There’d be absolutely no benefit to throwing everything but the soundtrack out and redoing it line-by-prerecorded-line as a cartoon, when if you want a Mario cartoon which looks like the games you can more easily just make a new cartoon (which is what they did.)
