    When you need to rant...

    I know I've mentioned this before, but I'm really increasingly becoming more and more put-out with Internet Explorer. It used to be the best browser there was - and in general, it still displays sites and layouts and such far better than Firefox (and I'm still not touching Chrome with a ten foot...

    Golden Globes - What's the Point?

    So I'm assuming they ended the Oscars with "Fight the Power" on purpose since they were "racist" this year?

    What's the weirdest movie you've ever seen?

    I see I haven't posted this, so here's another weird movie I've seen: GREASER'S PALACE. It's a B-movie from the early 70s written, produced, and directed by Robert Downey, Sr. It's billed as a "parable" of Jesus Christ through the New Testament and stars Allan Arbus (Sidney Freedman from...

    Google Images keeps crashing for no reason: half the time whenever you search for something you get nothing but a sea of Xs.

    Any Ernst Fans?

    I don't think it's just you, I think the later Ernest movies (which were TV movies as opposed to the earlier theatrical ones) are often panned by viewers. Personally, I didn't mind either ERNEST RIDES AGAIN or ERNEST GOES TO AFRICA - they weren't great, but they weren't too bad. ERNEST IN THE...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    Somebody riddle me this: how is it that spambots and trolls can still post clickbait links in comments, but normal YouTubers can't post links at all?

    Sesame Street Season 46 Episode 4608 - When Dinosaurs Walked Sesame Street

    Neither the Letter of the Day or the Number of the Day songs bother me too much, though they're clearly very contemporary-sounding, but then again, much of SST's music and songs reflected the times, such as all the disco songs they did in the 70s, or the totally tubular songs of the 80s, or even...

    Noticeable Changes to the set over the years

    Watching some of the later episodes of Season 24 on YT, you can see evidence that they were already in the process of cleaning up and brightening the set for Season 25: the doors and windowframes of 123 as well as the doors and staircase are painted a brighter shade of green (as well as the...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    My beef is that what VCRs they still manufacture are clearly not designed to last, because honestly, in the last three of four years, I've probably gone through about five or six or them because they all tend to stop playing properly after just a few months - not only that, but they're really...

    Sesame Street Season 46 Episode 4608 - When Dinosaurs Walked Sesame Street

    The street story was cute enough, I liked all the different little customs everyone was wearing (Abby's was a little too good, I almost thought she was a little dinosaur Muppet at first till I realized it was her in a costume). The running gag of when the gang would march through frame whenever...

    When you need to rant...

    Okay, so we've all ranted about political ads before, but today was perhaps the icing on the cake: have you see in? Seemingly ordinary people talking about why they're voting for Trump? That is obviously the fakiest fake-fake fakest thing I've seen yet, y'know why? Notice who the people who are...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    I do too, and you may have a point, because they asked one of the kids if they'd ever use anything like this to tell the time at night, and she said, "nah, I just use my phone."

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    Today was the 90s, and the things they challenged the kids on were an electric razor (the kind you had to plug in), a typewriter, and an alarm clock. Now, the plug-in razor and the typewriter I can understand (the latter was on the verge of obsoletion when I was a kid anyway), but are alarm...

    Wait a Minute... "DreamWorks' Dragons"? What?

    That sounds like that "Ball of Revenge" episode of Courage, where among the different past villains Eustace banded together to kill Courage were the weremole (which Courage did nothing to, and all it did was bite Muriel and eat bunnies), the gangster foot (which Courage actually destroyed, so...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    Ratburn's been shown to occasionally be out of the loop of somethings - particularly today's technology . . . but there's no way that he, as the toughest third grade teacher at Lakewood Elementary, shouldn't know what a meteorite is. And Brain, like Arthur, has always had perhaps the most...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    Okay, so one of our local news stations has been paying tribute to decades past this week - each day, they would cover a different decade from the 50s on Monday up to the 90s today (which hasn't been on yet); one of the cuter aspects of these tributes is that they've been having a segment each...

    The Chipmunks

    Well, they produced two seasons that are twice as long as regular cartoon seasons, and from what I've heard, they're possibly working on a third season right now since the show's been doing so well. Dude, that goes way back: when I was in Grade 8 in 2003, suddenly you were considered "too old"...
