Four years ago, I wrote a bit of Seinfeld fanfiction detailing the political leanings of the gang and their supporting players in a fantasy episode I dubbed “The Election.” Well, after four years of horror, along with absurdities even the Seinfeld writers’ room couldn’t have concocted, it seems fitting to revisit the gang in a sequel episode that I’ll call “The Election Part 2: The Pandemic.” Jerry – Mostly Apolitical – Supporting Any Functioning Adult (Joe Biden) Last election cycle, Jerry was being courted by Elaine to vote for Hillary Clinton, while his girlfriend at the time was pushing hard…

The Last Jedi is the newest installment in the extremely popular Ruined My Childhood franchise, the $8 billion global phenomenon that has elicited countless tears, howls of rage, and burned Chewbacca T-shirts from a myriad of fans since 1977. The Ruined My Childhood franchise was created by George Lucas, who originally conceived it to sully the memory of beloved Flash Gordon serials, before recognizing the value in tarnishing the series’ own legacy with each successive film. Fans of The Last Jedi agree “it’s the worst one yet” and that they “can’t wait to see what will infuriate them next time.”…

Boy, Bob Iger, all I can say is, “Thank you!” Your assistant stated in the deposition all letters not shredded became part of the evidence cache, but you clearly read every one! Now my little Olaf-eggs and icehuggers are officially part of the Disney family, and soon Elsa the Snow Queen Alien will be greeting guests alongside Mickey! I knew I’d get through to you. But one favor – in the film adaptation, don’t tone down the phallic stuff during the crossbreeding Fluid Harvest. Promise me, Bob. God, I’m gonna hate to miss it, but no hard feelings! Sincerely, Inmate…

Advertisers can be pretty sneaky when trying to get their messages across, as we’ve shown before. Let’s take a look at a few more ingenious examples of logos with more going on than it initially seems. 1) Tostitos Eagle-eyed consumers will note that Tostitos has incorporated some clever branding into their logo. Check out the two customers sharing a chip over the salsa bowl above the “i.” What creativity! 2) NBC NBC’s colorful logo was the brainchild of founder David Sarnoff, and if you’ll look closely you’ll notice the special flourish he gave it that survives to this day. That’s…

I, like you, love Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. There are the usual reasons of course – its airtight script, charming songs, clever dialogue, and wondrous cinematography, not to mention the central enchanting performance of Gene Wilder. But beyond these aspects is the intense level of detail present and how each time revisiting the film brings something new to the surface, whether it’s a character’s reaction, a bit of dialogue, or a piece of set design. The film is just so damn rich. And since the film holds so much detail, fans often zero in on specific parts or…

The Venn diagram of McDonald’s patrons to Donald Trump supporters isn’t a Venn diagram so much as just two circles on top of each other. But it seems even corporate America (or at least the companies compromised by George Soros and Barack Obama’s deep state, shadow government) has had enough with the Trump administration these days. In a pinned, and now-deleted, tweet today, the McDonald’s Corp. Twitter account went after POTUS to the delight of the country. Today, those Shamrock Shakes will taste even sweeter.

Donald Trump is a meme from your uncle’s computer come to life, an oversized sack of medical waste someone put a tie on, Freddy Krueger’s drinking buddy in the Dream World, a particularly stout scarecrow covered in Naugahyde, a grown man experiencing the “terrible twos,” the creation of God’s fuck-up of a brother Todd, a homunculus made from old pumpkin innards, the creature in all of Woody Guthrie’s nightmares, Dr. Moreau’s third try at a pigman, a vat of substandard hot dog meat, an adult in a Roald Dahl book, a circus carny with even a shred of power. …
