the problem is that it doesn't even come across as Drebin being silly to me

it comes across like "I was told to read this to you after you won so here it is"

It probably literally was that!

Was it a second attack or a police shootout? I mean good work either way, but the latter makes more sense.

It's weird, but Ocelot is probably humanized the least of all of FOXHOUND in MGS1 despite being one of the most characters in the series.

This I'll agree with, but between that and immediately losing an arm it struck me as a way to mask his importance and the fact that he'll survive.

Even with the Cobras you at least got a sense of their personality, even if it was mostly superficial. With the B&Bs you got...Kojima using his budget to mocap models nude and then figuring out a way to make use of that later (probably).

It also makes a sense why FOXHOUND would feel some camaraderie with Solid Snake.

Uh, they were in no way references to MGS2 bosses.

They use the weapons that Dead Cell used.

I edited in the railgun while you were typing that. I guess Laughing Octopus would be like Solidus (who is not Dead Cell but definitely an MGS2 boss). Trying to think what else, though.

Uh, they were in no way references to MGS2 bosses. And they mostly weren't even direct references to particular MGS3 bosses, though the naming convention obviously comes from them.

I like how North Korea has just kind of backed off

Kim Jong-Un is over there like "WHOA you guys have some real issues you need to work out. I can't conquer you while you're infighting! That's not fair."

The downside here is that the lesson Trump will take from the episode is that he can beat North Korea just by constantly upping the intensity of his rhetoric, and I feel like at some point that's not going to work out well for anyone.

I mean, NK was probably trying to avoid this, which they haven't it seems:

Timothy Dalton turned the role down for OHMSS? I thought production had considered him but decided not to because he was "too young." and that they'd cast him when he was older. Which they did.

Close. Dalton turned down the role because he felt he was too young. For OHMSS and L&LD.

"One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land."

I was actually looking this up and it wasn't exactly true. At least not quite the way I always understood it.

In 1986, with Roger Moore's retirement from the role, Timothy Dalton was offered the role of James Bond once again after previously having turned it down when Sean Connery vacated the role in 1967. The 1986 film adaptation of Brenda Starr, however, kept Dalton from being able to immediately accept the role. A number of actors were then screen-tested for the role, notably Sam Neill, but ultimately were passed over by Cubby Broccoli. Brosnan (whose Remington Steele series had just ended), was offered the role, but publicity revived the Remington Steele programme and forced Brosnan to back out of the role due to his contract with the show. Dalton then became available and accepted the role. Dalton's second turn as 007 Licence to Kill (1989), was a disappointment at the American box office, and legal squabbles about ownership of the film franchise resulted in cancellation of a proposed third Dalton film in 1991 (rumoured title: The Property of A Lady) and would put the series in a six-year hiatus. During that time, Dalton acted upon a clause in his contract and resigned, which left the door open for Brosnan, in 1994].

Tbf and put it in perspective, anyone who dies in this book hasn't even made it through a single book.

Ned's a bit different, of course. He's really treated more as THE main character of a book more than anyone else up until his capture, even Tyrion in ACoK. (They both get 15 chapters, but Tyrion gets the whole book for that, and part of that is the switching between him and Sansa during Blackwater.)

Worth noting, they initially wanted Dalton both times Connery left. We'd probably have much younger Bonds throughout if that had happened given that Moore is actually 3 years older than Connery.

Jimmy Kimmel has a good idea

Let's negotiate with Trump. He likes that!

Let's cut him a deal where he gives up the Presidency and in exchange we crown him the first and only King of the United States of America

Give him a gold castle, and a bunch of fluff ceremonial powers, and we can all move on.

Don't even have to do this. Tell him if he doesn't leave the presidency that we will fill his library with Hillary's books.

They're both descendants of the original Spencer. His two sons were his gifts to the world.

I'd like to see some proof of that because as far as I know they're just two douchebags that happen to have the last name Spencer.

I know of someone else who shares my father's first and last name entirely and is completely unrelated to him.

I'm not sure what he's referencing, but I'm quite certain you shouldn't be taking it seriously.
