“All that was written was, ‘I hated her so much that I wanted to kill her,’ or something like that,” says McKean, still smiling from the memory. “But she just kind of went into a fugue about hatred. She did it three or four times, and each time was funnier than the last. I thought that they could have strung a bunch of them together because they had plenty of cutaways of all of us going, What the fuck is she talking about?”
i first saw part of clue on cable when i was nine and i was so intrigued i made my mom rent it. we rented it over and over and over all throughout my childhood and it is still one of my favorite movies so long story short, i love this article.
Two of the kids I babysat for loved Clue and they asked to watch it every time I stayed over. They were my favorites.
This was the 90’s, so parents routinely left their kids with 13 year olds who let their 4 year olds watch Clue and stay up till 10. That 4 year old now commands soldiers, so I guess we all did something right.

SO verbal. Today he learned the words mahogany and cerulean. He’ll be smarter than me by kindergarten.

People here in Chicago are really appreciating Stephen Colbert’s shout out.
Thank you, Stephen.
One of the most consistent creative teams since the start of the new 52, writers Haden Blackman and J.H. Williams III have quit the Batwoman series. And there is no dancing around why based on a post on both Williams’ and Blackman’s web site where they note they are “heartbroken” about leaving but editorial interference including being “prohibited from ever showing Kate and Maggie actually getting married” is the cause.
Not going to happen. Read on.
DC Comics. Very disappointed in you. Why have you not yet learned that the fan community, not to mention your far-more-progressive-than-you creative staff, will react badly when you start meddling in ways like this?
Because DC are a bunch of fucking cowards who desperately want to pander to all the fucking bigoted little silver age obsessed losers out there who are frantically masturbating to the various cis white hetero heroes that this company INFESTS their various comics with
In 2002, having spent more than three years in one residence for the first time in my life, I got called for jury duty. I show up on time, ready to serve. When we get to the voir dire, the lawyer says to me, “I see you’re an astrophysicist. What’s that?” I answer, “Astrophysics is the laws of physics, applied to the universe—the Big Bang, black holes, that sort of thing.” Then he asks, “What do you teach at Princeton?” and I say, “I teach a class on the evaluation of evidence and the relative unreliability of eyewitness testimony.” Five minutes later, I’m on the street.
A few years later, jury duty again. The judge states that the defendant is charged with possession of 1,700 milligrams of cocaine. It was found on his body, he was arrested, and he is now on trial. This time, after the Q&A is over, the judge asks us whether there are any questions we’d like to ask the court, and I say, “Yes, Your Honor. Why did you say he was in possession of 1,700 milligrams of cocaine? That equals 1.7 grams. The ‘thousand’ cancels with the ‘milli-’ and you get 1.7 grams, which is less than the weight of a dime.” Again I’m out on the street.
