To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Kids should be forced to play "Pong" and like it!  :menace:

:rolleyes:  Oh, good, another game with a straight, white protagonist.  Very modern.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I had a gameboy and I loved it.

Yup me too. It was especially great because we went on road trips a lot so it became indispensable.

Dunno, I found their "Elders react to Gangnam Style" and "Elders react to GTA V" better.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I was thinking more of the source material than the commentary. The Elders can be pretty funny, but they're more likely to be presented with very popular material. The really bizarre stuff gets shown to the "youtubers" or occasionally the teens.

I guess it depends on whether you like mainstream stuff or bizarre stuff. :P
