And I am reminded once again. . .

that the thing I most disagree with John Scalzi about isn't the Oxford comma, but the directorial talents of Paul W.S. Anderson.

(That said, I tend to be a lot more convincing about the comma than the director.)

Five quick links

1. The DC Fifty-Too blog has a whole slew of artistic reimaginings of the DCU, any one of which looks better than putting Harley Quinn in whatever the hell she's going to be wearing.

2. Bill Simmons has some interesting thoughts about MVP criteria. Of course, no one is ever convinced in these arguments, but they're fun to read.

3. Orson Scott Card: Still scum.

4. Shockingly, it's competitiveness in videogames, not violence in games, that increases aggression.

5. Finally, thanks to the internet, I have found the reason I became an Aquaman fan at a young age. Yes, I ate nearly every meal off this placemat (or its twin) for three years straight.
