Doctor Who – The Pitch

Last year, I decided to watch all of the old Doctor Who episodes. Not the current series that began in 2005, but the old one that began in 1963. Finished it earlier this year, though my weekly wrap-ups of individual seasons haven’t all been published yet.

If you’ve been following them, and have decided you want to watch it, well, then, I’ll welcome you aboard the TARDIS.

It makes me feel good inside that I’m apparently better informed about breaking events than the president.

I was unaware we have a useless president until I saw about it in news reports.

Shows us on the doll where Paul Ryan touched your ideology.

A law that should make everyone happy: A ban on Democrats owning guns.

As opposed to what? Air buffalo? Oh, I guess that’s where buffalo wings come from.

Rape culture? I didn’t know rape made cultural contributions. I assume it’s things like Nickelback and Axe body spray.
