  1. Not to be an even more crotchety old man but does anyone actually have firm numbers saying fewer kids walk to school, or is this all anecdotal stuff? My school district won’t even give you the option of taking a bus if you’re within a certain perimeter of the school and tons of kids are on their bikes every morning.
  2. It’s hard to predict what will happen, even if fewer kids walk to school, pedestrian fatalities are up and rising. Reckless driving rates are high, and when you combine that with the average hood height on American cars being in low orbit, it’s a bad combo.
  3. I swear this damn thing was on every commercial break after school.
  4. “Years past” as in when I was a child/young adult? Sure. As in yesterday? Nah.
  5. I can’t fathom anyone with money watching this fuckwit embarrass himself on the regular and decide putting money in his company is a wise decision.
  6. He ties his wheelchair to the back of his car and it naturally tries to flee from him as any mobile object would.
  7. Apparently the first Advance Wars released in the US the day before 9/11 which means that my internal calendar of what happened when is just fucked beyond belief.
  8. I don’t think it was ever a guarantee, Valve has a habit of releasing a piece of hardware as a curiosity and then abandoning it forever because they heard keys jangling in the other room.
  9. I’ll agree that the ending didn’t ruin the movie because it was ok at best even before the ending. It did however ruin the title.
  10. Even if you accept that he has a moment of reflection on his actions at the end, the entire thing is completely undermined by him being the savior of humanity and also blowing them all to hell with a grenade the second he comes to that conclusion. Sure I’m a monster but, you know, omelettes and eggs and all that noise…
