Posted by MGK Published in Bad Comedy, Conversations, Flicks

FLAPJACKS: So did you see the new Liam Neeson movie? ME: Oh, you mean Liam Neeson Versus Wolves? Yeah. It was okay, I guess. FLAPJACKS: Only “okay,” though? I was hoping that it would be a classic. Is it better than Liam Neeson Versus Kidnappers? ME: Oh, it’s much better than that. Which, needless to […]

OSCAR NOMINATION PREDICTIONS POST

Posted by MGK Published in Flicks

BEST PICTURE: The Artist is a lock, because audiences are crazy for this film’s simulation of nostalgia. (It has all the blissful reverie with half the calories, and unlike those other terrible foreign films you don’t have to read any subtitles!) The Descendants will get in, ditto Hugo and Moneyball. I’m sure about those four. […]

A discussion of why SOPA is bad, involving La Parka.

Posted by MGK Published in Politics, The Internets

So today Wikipedia and Reddit and WordPress and a bunch of other sites have all “gone dark” for 24 hours to protest SOPA. They’re right to do so and if you’re one of my American readers, you should make sure you voice your opposition to the bill. Not least because it would be exceptionally easy […]

99 problems but spending ain’t one

Posted by MGK Published in Canadian Politics, Politics

Macleans has been getting a lot of hits the past week for its 99 Ways The Government Wastes Your Money series of posts, which is about what you’d expect from Macleans, a magazine that for the most part started downhill in the late 90s and never looked back, instead deciding to celebrate itself for championing […]
