I feel like if we start naming COVID strains to sound like rare Transformers figures, we’re going to end up with the internet WANTING to collect them all. He claimed he was beaten up by a mys...

Eminem rapping about the Spider-Man trailer: “And Doctor Strange says / NOTHING, YOU IDIOT / he’s with the villains he locked in the basement!” NEW RULE: You can only tell origin stories in t...

So DC Comics had a character with power to control rocks & dirt who was European royalty & they called him “Geo-Force” not “Landlord”? Do I have to think for everyone? Did they have a w...

Calling the minor X-Men character Jamie Madrox “Multiple Man” missed a trick. They could’a done “The Divisible Man”. A book about the insane economics of social media and viral video called M...

A three-way mash-up of Sublime’s “Badfish” (remember that brief period where alt-rock songs all started with party muttering? good times!) 4 Non-Blondes’ “What’s Up” and Bee Gees’ “I’ve Gotta G...
