OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

How does everyone feel about Richard/Thomas Middleditch? Annoying or no? For me, at times, he's kind of become like Piper in OITNB: The less we see of the lead, the better. I don't hate him completely but he did grate a few times this season.

That's basically the entire point of his character. He's the straight man/everyman/foil/voice of reason. The reason you like the rest of the characters is because they play off of him. He's perfect at what he does.

I hated him at first until I realized how perfect he is. Sterling is right about Piper though - awful, awful character.

There aren't people who like Piper, are there? That's not a thing? I refuse to believe that's a thing.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

I love Middleditch. I saw him on Conan a few months ago and laughed my entire ass off the whole interview. It made me appreciate his character more too. My favorite moment of his this past season was when he was explaining to the porn site CEO how they'd deleted a fuckton of her data. And at the end his voice goes up about 70 octaves and he says, "And... I think..." something something face to face meeting. "Get out."

Not sure if you guys caught this, but if you read the mission statement on Alphabet's home page, there's a hidden link that takes you here.

It's back and funny as ever. Tell all your friends on Hooli.

Nice.

I am one episode behind. Richard spilling his guts to the blogger gave me a crushing amount of anxiety.

This week's wasn't their finest episode but it sets up some good shit. TJ Miller is at his worst when he's the leech sucking other people dry. I like his character when he's shitting on people far more important than him and yelling at people in the house. Not a huge fan of the Big Head/Bachman arc but I realize there's a set up at work here so I'll be interested to see how it plays out.

I figured you'd be here to celebrate confirmation that this guy indeed fucks.

Having now caught up completely, I gave it some thought. Over on Reddit, people seem to think that Jared is the most normal, well-balanced guy who has everything figured out, but I disagree. He's got an insane backstory and, eventually he's going to snap.

Richard's "m'lady" douchiness might have been the most hilariously cringeworthy moment on this show so far and made me wonder if he's spending his spare time coding for this app.

I'm convinced this show ends with Big Head owning Pied Piper and Hooli.

Cringeworthy is exactly right. I could barely stand it.

Compared to the people on Reddit, Jared is normal and well-balanced.
