A white van peels through Twin Pines' parking lot and screeches to a halt beside the DeLorean. A well-groomed, bearded man of Libyan descent leaps out of the driver's seat and presents Doc Brown a receipt for two (2) Mongolian gerbils ($2.99 ea.) and $13.84 in change. He then laughs, claps the Doc on the back, assures him that no effort is too great if it means winning a repeat customer, and invites the Doc and Marty to his mother's home for tea and bazeen anytime they'd like.

Let me just spoil the rest of the season for you guys right here.

- Skyler and Terrison do not bone it that night or on any subsequent nights.
- Penelope briefly wears the Hookup Crown, but her title is revoked after she passes out and drowns in the hot tub.
- Terrison ends up with the most hooks-up, but Aiden ends up with the best hooks-up. The tie is settled in the Atlasphere arena.
- Todd Black hooks up with Host Enforcer.

I'm pretty sure that once you've expressed strong feelings about a sci-fi RPG trilogy's ending, HMS Lookin' Cool has already sailed.

That's not what the Doctor looks like. The Doctor has blond hair and a cricket uniform.

That's not what the Enterprise looks like, either. The Enterprise has an agony booth, a Tantalus field, and a big insignia of the Earth getting stabbed painted on it.

And, while we're at it, that's not what bacon looks like. Bacon is bright red, bone-dry, and comes in a jar labeled "artificially flavored textured vegetable protein."

Would you want george r r martin to make the last book end with "...and that is how hogwarts was founded"

Anyone who says "no" is a goddamned liar.

My wife and I haven't yet gotten to the ending, and I'm actually inclined to like the ending if only because I really, really dislike some of the people who're complaining about it, but I've got to say this: the Retake Mass Effect people have gone about their complaining in an almost ridiculously appropriate fashion.

"We're so disappointed by the ending, BioWare, that we're going to respectfully air our grievances while raising nearly $80,000 for charity!"

I mean, sure, there's still some question about how much narrative control should be ceded to the players even in an interactive storytelling medium, but if you want to convince a developer to change a game, there's no better way to do it than to demonstrate that you're a.) flush with cash, b.) interested in DLC, and c.) nice.

Let's accentuate the positive here. According to Wikipedia we "have a talent for projects which require precision and detail," like painting Warhammer figurines, as well as a "flair for discrimination and eloquence with words," which comes in handy when we're trying to convince others who the best Green Lantern is (Guy Gardner).

"Ruined"? Balderdash. Just as there's no such thing as bad publicity, so too is there no such thing as indecent exposure. It isn't as though showing half of San Diego his balls is even the most shocking thing Russell has done to promote his film; remember how he somehow managed to make YouTube comments even more insufferable for like a week?

They look so furtive.

It raises the question: when you're choking down your fourth Pepperjack Guaconnaise Bäco® (that is, a taco with a crispy bacon shell) in the span of a half hour, are you doing it because you're addicted to the food? Or because you're addicted to the danger of being discovered?

This is a thoughtful gesture. Australians are an insular, suspicious people, and it'd be handy if Kris had a store of authentic (or "fair dinkum") Aussie slang so he can speak the local patois (or "strine"), convince the natives he's a decent guy (or "corker bloke"), and won't get stabbed in the kidneys (or "shapped in the grobbos").
