Thank you, [[Creator/MarvelStudios Marvel]] and Creator/DisneyPlus, and most importantly, ''Series/MsMarvel''.” ''

->''"Someone was posting on 4chan saying that they're Music/TaylorSwift. There is a lot of evidence for this, some of it to do with her cat, which is nice.

->Unbelievable evidence of an [[ManChild emotional digression]] going on here: porno movies and video games. What am I, thirteen, emotionally? I mean, I'm looking at this receipt I got from [the video store], and it's like, ''Clam Lappers'', and ''[[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog Sonic the Hedgehog]].'' That was one weekend. That was Easter weekend. Something's going on with me, man. That's a pretty scary way to celebrate the resurrection of Christ, with ''Clam Lappers'' and ''Sonic-fucking-Hedgehog.''

->When the rest of us have to put together a costume for Halloween or Purim or whatever weird cosplay shit you do in your free time (no judgement) we go out to our nearest Savers...But not Music/{{Madonna}}. Madonna is a very rich and very powerful lady. When Madonna wanted to dress up as [[Series/GameOfThrones Daenerys Targaryen]] for Purim, she didn’t just send out her assistant to Party Depot and grab a generic 'Dragon Princess' costume-in-a-bag...Emilia Clarke explained that the reason Madonna’s Purim costume was so good was because it was the real thing. Emilia had received an email from an HBO publicist asking if she’d be willing to loan Madonna one of her dresses from [=GoT=], and since she can read between the lines -- that Madonna doesn’t ask, she DEMANDS -- she agreed and let her wear it. Good move, Emilia; it’s always better to keep Madge on your good side lest you wake up in an ice-filled bathtub with your kidneys missing and [[LifeDrinker all the youth drained from your face.]]

->If [[=QAnon=] followers] are sad and looking for ways to spend hours on the internet researching arcane and impossible to understand theories, might I suggest nerd culture? Join us! It's great! I spend every waking moment I'm not on camera reading Creator/JRRTolkien, or listening to J. R. R. Tolkien, or reading about J. R. R. Tolkien, and taking Tolkien quizzes, and reading the Tolkien dictionary like this one ''[holds up "Tolkien: A Dictionary"]'', and ''correcting the entries!'' Why be upset about fictional reptilian satanists when you could be angry at the very real fact that [[AdaptedOut Glorfindel got shafted]] in ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' movies? Look, I understand [[AscendedExtra adding Arwen]]. I like that. Even Professor Tolkien knew she was an underdeveloped character added at the last minute to [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings the novel]], but why did they have to cut Glorfindel out? He defeated the Balrog at the Fall of Gondolin! Does that not count for ''anything'' anymore?!? And please, no letters that Glorfindel himself was killed while defeating the Balrog. So was Ecthelion, Lord of the House of the Fountain, and that was against Gothmog, ''so what's your point?''

And if you got both those references, odds are good that you're a nerd, too.
