- Comment on Where were you when the final Garfield comic dropped...? 21 hours ago:
When I was a kid, I read what I later thought was intended to be the last Garfield comic. Turns out that was a widespread lie, based on the linked article.
I’m not getting tricked again!

I think “Meatloaf” is a great name for a chubby guinea pig.

I don’t drink coffee and rarely tea, so you won’t get any argument from me.
- Comment on Does the "White Power Ranger" seem like an odd title? 1 week ago:
He was.
I remember only because at the time they were advertising that the green power ranger would be getting a power upgrade and I said to my older brother that I bet he would become the white power ranger (not being aware of the connotations at the time, nor anything else other than the kid’s show).
He said that wasn’t possible. How would they display the trademark white diamonds, he asked? It still boggles my mind that that was his only reasoning.

I don’t know where this building is located, but in the USA, “ground floor” and “first floor” are oft used interchangeably to mean what I’m guessing you would call the ground floor.

Gentlemen, I bring you … corn!
I saw this in an AMV Hell video. I’ve never seen the original context before. I suppose I have now but I consider myself no further enlightened.

Thank you for the new media!
