Replicants are bioengineered humans, designed by Tyrell corporation for use off-world. Their enhanced strength made them ideal slave labor. After a series of violent rebellions, their manufacture became prohibited and Tyrell corp went bankrupt. The collapse of ecosystems in the mid 2020s led to the rise of the industrialist Niander Wallace, whose mastery of synthetic farming averted famine. Wallace acquired the remains of Tyrell Corp and created a new line of replicants who obey. Many older model replicants - Nexus 8s with open-ended lifespans - survived. They are hunted down and 'retired'. Those that hunt them still go by the name... Blade Runner

Way to go, morons! Y’all thought it was so funny to elect Rufus mayor over the other, extremely qualified, candidate. Well, look what your cheeky little shenanigans cost you. Enjoy watching Indepence Day: Resurgence on the Roku channel tonight while all the neighboring towns you can see from your patios have the time of their lives lighting up the night sky! Sure, maybe the other candidate that ran for mayor got zero votes, but I also have it on good authority (he and I are very close friends) that he doesn’t cower and whimper at the sounds of America’s freedom…

He is the light of Debbie and I’s life, and we think it is time for him to stop hiding that light under a bushel and learn to love again. But before you get any ideas, you should know there are some rules I worked out with his father (my best friend): 1. Treat Him the Way You’d Like to be Treated 2. Always Keep a Spare Key Handy. He has Night Terrors and Needs…

1. Kat Dennings The number one spot on our power rankings had to go to Kat Dennings, for her portrayal of our favorite broke girl, Max Brunette. We never get tired of her antics, such as stealing a monkey from the zoo (S2, EP 4 “The one where Kat Dennings steals a monkey from the zoo”) or pranking her nasty babysitter (S8 EP 23 “series finale”). Max Brunette is even able to hold her own when who else but Condoleezza Rice walks into her bakery (S3, EP 5 “Female president?”). We can’t get enough of Max Brunette or Kat Dennings.…
