Well, this is something I wasn't expecting to see today.


Webster was once zapped onto the Enterprise-D by a video game where he met Worf!


I don't recall watching much Webster back in the day. I'm not sure why. Maybe I had already been burned out on heartwarming orphans. There were a lot of shows with heartwarming orphans back then.

Certifiably Ingame gives a breakdown of the Battle of Wolf 359


I'm disappointed that there wasn't a mention of the "destruction" of the U.S.S. Righteous (Star Trek: Borg).

As a fan of the 1985 Anne of Green Gables and 1994 Little Women of course I knew about the similarities between the proposal scenes.



I'm also a fan of the 2019 Little Women, but it was only today that I realized how much closer the proposal scene in that one match's Anne's.



It's odd. I like several versions of Little Women (as I've mentioned before, you gotta see William Shatner and John deLancie in the 1978 one), but Anne is a completely different kettle of fish. All versions other than Sullivan's (first two) films pale in comparison. The World Masterpiece Theater anime is a valiant effort, but still falls short. I refuse to watch Anne With An E on principle, but that's a whole other rant.

LGR covers some 3.5" disk versions of old DOS shareware games.


I still have fond memories of the shareware era. I don't think I ever had the 3.5" disks, I got them on CD compilations. Anyway, if you remember this era the video is worthwhile if only for the atrocious cover art. The Commander Keen art alone is worth the watch.

How to Talk Minnesotan the PBS TV special


This stuff is thirty years out of date, but it's still funny to me. Reading the comments was also great, especially seeing how it also applies to residents of the Upper Midwest and Scandinavia in general.

Irish People do the Mystery Hot Sauce Challenge


Twelve sauces from 1-mild to 12-HOT! What will you get?


I like spicy food, but some of those hot sauces sound scary. I don't think I've ever had ghost pepper.

Trailer for the Power Rangers 30th Anniversary Special


Am I petty for resenting how well these guys have aged compared to me?


I've gone on about my history with the franchise enough times that I don't want to become tedious. Sufficed to say, there are parts of me that wish that I still had time to watch the show.
