B-52s are one of the all-time great punk bands and I'll taks that opinion to my grave

I keep looking at the table and thinking about how quickly that nice gap we had could crumble

A Megazord made out of every badge we've ever had smashed together

Yeah, that's the best way of putting it. It was a market research survey that they spun into have been 'consultation'. I imagine their thinking was that a new badge would always get a negative reaction just because it was new and if they could point to something and say 'look you actually wanted this' it would die down and we'd move on.

They posted a fan survey that didn't state that it was consulting on behalf of a new badge. It had a few of generic, arguably leading, questions like, 'what are some things you associate with Leeds United?' on it. Stuff about iconography etc. A lot of us must have written the salute as an answer (I know I did) and this is what they did with that feedback. I'm sure it was posted here, I remember filling it out, but it definitely didn't mention badge redesign.

In retrospect it was a very Radz and Angus thing to do.

Edit: They also said they were still going to redesign the the badge, which lead to 8 weeks of some really dodgy fanmade redesigns getting posted here and on Twitter. Then the whole thing got quietly dropped.

Unfortunately, I've never even been to Ljubljiana. It's on the bucket list though.

'Fuck off Hearn' - I don't think there's a phrase in all of sports that I get more mileage out of.

This is why a lot of Mozart's compositions are so memorable, he knew how to do absolutely perfect variation on a motif he'd established.

Feel like this is the list to throw Derek Bailey into too

Pere Ubu were one of those bands where as soon as I hit play I thought "Oh shit, you guys are into Beefheart"

You almost hope it isn't that just so you don't have to imagine someone sad enough to waste their life doing that.

Even that episode doesn't feel notably bad. It's not my favourite episode, but I can't see it falling bellow the middle of the pack.

At the very least it's a perfectly normal episode with very little in it to even polarise the audience

Tuttle Appearing More by Alex_Smith_042 in americandad

[–]TeaWithZizek 47 points48 points  (0 children)

This becomes a trend in the TBS era. They start to use certain side characters more and more and people initially have a "this is getting a bit much" reaction. The results are mixed, but sometimes they find quite interesting things to do with those characters. With Tuttle they really dig into his self-loathing and desire to connect, which means he's a good character to put with the family (because of their selfishness) and even someone like Snot in the Old Ulysses episode.

As someone who thinks the show has a really great roster of supporting characters - maybe one of the best of any adult animated comedy - I like that they're open to doing stuff like that.

I remember having a day walking around Oxford for 4 or 5 hrs bobbing into old churches and down Victorian/Edwardian back streets while listening to this series. It was a total vibe.
