Holy crap, I'm reading all of the "Unicorn Hunters" comments right now (in preparation for the traditional AV Club early Sunday morning "Pop Culture Weekend" Q&A). What an almighty passel of trainwrecks. |

Did Todd ever give a proper goodbye? It seems like he went crazy when he posted the Saved By The Bell movie article and another article, and then radio silence. Like he was going rogue and saying "fuck you" to the vapid pop culture stories that sometimes populate the AV Club, and they pulled his newswire rights.
Did I miss an article from his last day saying "Peace out, see you all on Vox?" or was that all Twitter/tumblr?

In a few of his last articles he said different forms of goodbye, including his final Twilight Zone review. He has more already-written articles coming in the weeks to come, though.

I've always wanted to be nominated for a Commie. There has to be something I've said worthy of it.
Also, I've avoided this thread cause I thought it had to do with actual Communists

We're collecting evidence for our own witch hunt. Anyone who says anything witty or insightful is clearly a Bolshevik of some kind. |

Well I do have some social security, and I don't believe that is the worst thing that ever happened to me. So yeah, I'm not safe from that witch hunt. In my defense, I would like to say that I don't have the same weight as a duck. |

I'm fairly moderate politically, which means here in Texas I'm considered a raging commie.

I don't want to be that guy who posts his own commetns so I'm not putting this up as a commie, feel free to disqualify it, I just wanted people to read it because I thought it was funny but I think barely anyone read the article interviewing the competitive eater guy (despite it actually being an illuminating and funny interview with a person aware of how terrible they are): www.avclub.com/article/competitive-eater-patrick-bertoletti-hot-dogs-vomi-206454#comment-1475728493I'll have to think up more fake history because it's actually quite an entertaining diversion to think up fake explanations for stuff. |

I enjoyed ganondorf's comment referring to A.A. Dowd saying that there's no suspense in the new Planet of the Apes movie because we all know where it's going to end up. |

If pairesta is going to compare mine to one of the best comments in recent times, I'm not afraid to toot my own horn. |

I saw Chalmers reading some propaganda literature the other day, so we should definitely keep an eye on him.

Masters of Sex is back, which means the reviews for it are back. Which means Lifeless Husk is coming back to deserving "Commenter of the Year".

We can scream at people who aren't having sex now? This won't end well.
