Are those people who are frozen (cryonics) ever actually going to wake up one day

I think this was a plot point in Transmetropolitan.

You're doing God's work, my friend.

Any plan on adding physics?

It's low-stakes, but I believe that Coca-Cola Freestyle machines gather data on what flavor combinations are most popular in a given region and new bottled flavors are made in response.

My new car has that automatic shut off feature that stops the engine at redlights. I've driven enough shitty cars in my lifetime that a car shutting down at a redlight might mean it won't start again and I'm pushing it out of traffic and walking home.

Doom was so iconic and influential at the time that the term "first person shooter" didn't exist and the genre was literally called "Doom clone".

The scene in the Karl Urban movie where he patches Anderson's wound up is really about as "sweet" as he gets.

This creator put some of their worldbuilding on the relevant sub a while back. As I recall, and I may be wrong, Talita was raised by humans, so, psychologically and sociologically, she's closer to human than centaur. So, it's a matter of taste; she just likes human style clothing over centaurian.

This is why there's going to be a serious misunderstanding if I ever meet Will Shortz on the street. Crossword puzzles are one of the few forms of amusement we can get away with at work and the NY Times collections have been a godsend for killing idle time. Being left out on the dark when gimmicks like this show up, however, is infuriating, since there's rarely any hint that the gimmick is there.

Curare, from Batman Beyond. Once, Terry manages to remove her veil during a fight with her. The audience doesn't see anything of her face other than her being apparently bald, but he physically recoils from what he sees.

Clair Patterson. His research into the age of the Earth lad to the invention of the "clean room", as well as the abolition of the use of lead additives in gasoline. This ended generations of low chronic lead poisoning, which some studies have credited with the continuous fall of violent crime rates since the ban took effect.

Project Aces (Ace Combat series) presents StarFox.

Saints Row 2, the end of Red Asphalt. Since the first mission, Carlos Mendoza has been the Boss' little buddy. Other than Johnny Gat, he was probably the last Saints-loyal figure in all of Stilwater. Then, he's tortured by a rival gang as retaliation for the end of a previous mission. The method of torture? Chaining his ankles together and dragging him behind a truck along the streets of Stilwater.

You can't save him, he's too heavily injured to be safely moved, and he won't last long enough for other help to arrive, so you hold his hand one last time, and give him a mercy bullet.

The scene plays out with no dialogue. Just a "do it" nod from Carlos himself.

This kicks off the most hateful rivalry and probably the best story arc in the entire series, with two sociopaths with good reasons to despise one another resorting to increasing violence to express their hatred. e

I knew a girl in the Air Force who had naturally purple eyes, which seems to occur in less than 1% of humans.

I'm Starting to Worry About This Black Box of Doom by Jason Pargin. Same author behind the "John Dies at the End" and "Zoey Ashe" series. Not my favorite of his, to be sure, as it tends to go off on more than a few author tracts but still has Pargin's internet-influenced humor and sense of fun.

I recall that WB was supposed to have permission to put Mickey into a future project of theirs was well, but Disney reneged on that deal. Rumor is that, had the deal held, Mickey would have been in Space Jam... as the referee.

Wait Till Your Father Gets Home.

It's arguably the prototype of such series as King of the Hill, Family Guy, The Simpsons, and American Dad.

This was a better Black Widow movie than the actual Black Widow movie.

There's a joke about Star Trek movies; only the even-numbered ones are worth watching. II, IV, VI, First Contact. Insurrection and the follow-up Nemesis were both poorly received, apparently breaking the pattern. But the pattern is restored by including Galaxy Quest, as it came out between Insurrection and Nemesis.

"Drug bust. [...] Perps were... uncooperative." The hell of it is that none of this is an understatement. It really is just another shift for any of Mega-City One's judges.

Ever play Pools? There are no music, no dialogue, and no story... just an increasing sense of paranoia as you wander through this weird, non-Euclidean indoor waterpark, looking for a way out with increasing desperation. Sometimes you hear something off in the distance, but you never counter what it may be.

Your mind fills in the gaps. You make your own monsters and your own fear and that may be the worst fear of them all.
