The material needs a defender more than the spiritual. If there is a higher power, it can defend itself from the material. Thus denotes 'higher power'.

To whoever decided to cancel The Clone Wars:


You knew this was coming.  You had to have seen the writing on the wall when they bought the franchise.

Yeah, I think Disney has some sort of rule that they only make so many episodes of any series before retiring it.  I can't exactly remember what that number is, but I remember thinking "Damn, that's not many, really", when I read about it.

There's a belief that they have a "65 episode rule", which is only 2 or 3 seasons. This isn't the case, and the very Disney Wiki page on it has a long list of exceptions. There's absolutely no rule that gets followed, no written policy, etc. They just try to stick to that rough area unless the show is popular enough to get approved for more (or bad enough to get canceled).

The reason such an apparently small number gets used is because it lets them run one episode every weekday for 13 weeks, letting them get 4 shows in that timeslot into a calender year. It should be noted that this is mostly an American thing (a lot of people, especially the British, would find it unusually long) and again, it's broken frequently.

If it helps, the Clone Wars has like another season's worth of episodes already made.

People who buy pets they can't care for. I'm referring to people who buy parrots, large cats, monkeys, etc... and then DON'T CARE FOR THEM.
They play with some baby monkey and think it's so cute, but then they buy one and they realize that monkeys make horrible pets. Or they buy a cockatoo because it was snuggling with them in the pet store, but then they don't care for it.

That's thing, I have no problem with it ending, my problem is that whole season worth of episodes is in limbo. From what I understand, they have no idea what they're going to do with it.

Repetitive Youtube ads. For the millionth time, Japanese Department of Tourism, I am not going to Okinawa. And you, Square Enix. No matter how many times you show me that same trailer that has not one iota of gameplay, I will not buy the new Tomb Raider. Don't get me wrong, I'm perfectly happy to watch Youtube ads. They do support my subscribees, after all. But damn, a little variety would be nice.

There are a number of ways, though my favourite is simply to take them by surprise. They're just walking down the street, minding their own business when suddenly, WHACK! Penis to the face.

Can't say I have. I suppose that's not such a bad thing.

Since we're on the topic of ads, I hate facebook ads.

My wife's car and the touchscreen on my phone both died today.

This for reptiles on so many levels.

How hard is it to do some research before you go and buy an alligator or a caiman?
