TOUCHED BY A NINJA! Every show follows the formula that obviously the same kindly Japanese-American, with different names and professions every episode, befriends someone whose problems can be traced to one or two powerful people, who turn up dead later, although nobody can figure out how or why.

Tom Waits and the Heartbreakers

“She’s a good girl, loves her mother, loves Jesus and America too, makes pretty good Bloody Marys. She has that razor sadness that only gets worse with the boom and the thunder of the Southern Pacific rolling by.” klang THUMP THUMP

what you see you might not get
and we can bet
so don't you get souped yet
schemin' on a thing that's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage

song lyrics, all caps, making fun of "Dion" and Anglo Saxon poetry 

WHERE IS THE HELM AND HAUBERK AND WHERE IS THE HORN A BLOWIN'
WHERE IS THE HORSE AND RIDER AND THE PALE HAIR FLOWIN'
AND WHEN I FIND MYSELF A FALLIN' FOR SOME GIRL
I TAKE THE WHALE'S BROAD HIGHWAY AND I TRAVEL ROUND THE WORLD
YES I'M THE WANDERER
OH I'M THE WANDERER
I GO AROUND AND AROUND AND AROUND AND AROUND

WELL THERE'S SKOGUL ON MY LEFT AND THERE'S BRYNHILD ON MY RIGHT
AND MATHILDE IS THE GIRL THAT I'LL BE WITH TONIGHT
AND WHEN SHE ASKS ME WHICH ONE I LOVE THE BEST
I OPEN MY T-TUNIC THERE'S WEALTHEOW ON MY CHEST
YES I'M THE WANDERER
OH I'M THE WANDERER
I GO AROUND AND AROUND AND AROUND AND AROUND

I know what will help with the feelings of being stuck as an aging failure while other people in the world are off doing exciting, meaningful, cool stuff! Let's listen to a batch of stuff that would've been on the Oldies station in A^2 while I was in college!

@LexYeen @rey I assumed it was a transit announcement so embarrassingly my model for how to say it is "Inman Park-Reynoldstown."

trying to think of more cheerful stuff, yesterday after buying a used book about vikingr and a used guidebook to deserts, the thought that I basically would like to be a sword wielding Aldo Leopold led to wondering if they fixed ranger in 2024.

Answer; no, apparently you need to house rule them OR they're basically get 6 levels and get out.

I know Thufir I was sitting with my back to the door, I heard you, Doctor Yueh and Gurney Halleck making fart noises by sticking your hands in your armpits

those sounds could be imitated!

I'd know the difference

*makes fart noise with armpits*

the beginning is a very difficult time

know then that this is the year 10191. the known universe is ruled by my father, the Padishah emperor Shaddam IV. In this time, in a hole in the ground, lived a hobbit. not a dark smelly hole full of worms and bungus, but a hobbit hole, and that means comfort.

Savage Land Wolverine, forget the 2013 series, there's no plot, it's just issue after issue of Wolverine punching theropods and eating Didelphodons in between surly monologues because he CAN

fans would love it, and you KNOW this

my new video game FLAXX in which you’re a medieval crofter or socman and you have to harvest quickly before you’re buried in a devastating FLAXX WAVE

trying to create the most confused fanfic ever by alternating music from Dune (1984) and Blazing Saddles (1974)

"The messiah's Black?"
"Why not, it worked in the New Testament."

(okay yeah I know, "It worked in Blazing Saddles" is from Robin Hood Men in Tights, work with me)
