How to genetically engineer a legion of cat girl maids?
Cloning anime characters is super easy. You’d probably want to use some combination of this software: bit.ly/bc-anime. Or. Do you mean make actual cat girl maids? Not judging, but that seems really ill-advised. Think of the cat food and litter required.
There are just so many good poems that this is a really tough one! What subjects do you enjoy? What styles? Eras? One place to go is the Poetry Foundation (bit.ly/PF-poems), where you can find editors’ picks, or browse by subject or school (style) of poetry from Poetry Magazine’s 100+ year history of publishing, with over 40,000 poems. On their newsletter page, you can sign up for poem-a-day via email. Here’s a nice poem about a wall: bit.ly/goodman-wall.
As Dennis & Charlie are TV characters (from the long-running Netflix series It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia), the answer has to do with what the writers and actors intend to portray. It sounds like both are characters with psychological problems. Apparently Charlie is reacting to what some other characters on the show think was a childhood full of sexual abuse, and Dennis was, in season 10, diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. I haven’t watched it myself (being a library wall, I’m averse to yelling), but it does sound like a darkly funny and sympathetic exploration of characters with psychological damage.
*Update* After conferring with my acolytes, I have revised my answer to “Because Dennis is a bastard man”. But the show wouldn’t be the same without him, so we’re all glad that Dennis is a bastard man.
How does Paddington 2 compare to the original Paddington?
One of my helpers, who very much enjoyed Michael Bond’s books, was seriously disappointed by the first film’s action focus, and did not watch the sequel. By the numbers, Paddington 2 beats the earlier film. On IMDB it’s 7.9 vs. 7.2; on Metacritic 88 vs. 77 – all very good scores, so maybe you will enjoy them more than my helper!
It sounds to me like a matter of preference & taste. Though Overwatch has won more awards, League has more players & draws a bigger audience for competitions. Do you prefer a multiplayer battle arena game, or a multiplayer FPS? Do you like medieval/fantasy style or futuristic, post-apocalypse style? A gamer has told me it’s easy to understand game play as a newbie in Overwatch, though challenging, skill-wise; conversely, they said of League, “I was basically just pressing buttons fast & winning, and I didn’t know what was going on.” As to why Overwatch has won so many awards, it sounds like the development team was small, nimble, and had an unusual degree of creative freedom.

I suggest you watch WANDARAFU RAIFU then you will understand the meaning of life.
Many films have attempted to address the meaning of life by taking the perspective of the afterlife. Well-known American ones include A Wonderful Life, A Christmas Carol, or for a more comical take, Heaven Can Wait, or an existential version involving second chances, Groundhog Day. The Japanese Wandafuru Raifu (Wonderful Life, also titled After Life, in O’Neill Library at circulation and in the video collection, PN1993.5 .J3 W36 2000) is likely a direct reference to the American classic, but certainly an original riff. I haven’t seen it myself, but it sounds worthwhile!
Why do I get ripped on for liking the Bills #goBills
Well…you are in the middle of Pats country. I think rooting for any team other than the Patriots would put you in the crosshairs. The Bills’ recent records have provided plenty of opportunity to tease. But take heart: you utterly destroyed one of the best defenses in the league on Sunday and are going into a game with a compromised Packers team next Sunday. Josh Allen looks more and more like the real deal. Things look good for the Bills.
If Yelp isn’t cutting it for you, you could try Boston Magazine’s Best of Boston lists. http://bit.ly/bc-bob. Improper Bostonian has one that includes a little more on clubs: http://bit.ly/bc-ib
I’ve never thought of music as a competition. Who’s better, Bach or Handel, Fats Waller or Fats Domino? They’re all good, and create music that appeals to different people.
I suppose it depends on who you ask. One of my acolytes reports that he used to think so, but now doesn’t. Garfield Minus Garfield, on the other hand, is pretty dark. http://bit.ly/bc-garfield. President Garfield, maybe also not so funny. bit.ly/bc-president-garfield
The way to contact any celebrity is through their agent. It’s hit-or-miss, of course. Amy Poehler is represented by William Morris Endeavor (WME): wmeentertainment.com/expertise/comedy/. According to another website (www.wrhammons.com/poehler-agent-contact.htm), her agent there is Sharon Jackson, but I have no idea how authoritative that website is.
What do you know about the world cup? AND who do you think will win?
The 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia is in the midst of the knockout round of 16. Half the games have been completed with Uruguay facing France, and Russia facing Croatia in the quarter-finals. The other two quarter-final matches will be determined with games today and tomorrow. Watching the competition so far, it has been exciting to see some of the underdogs finding success where Messi (Argentina) and Ronaldo (Portugal) have failed. France, Uruguay, and Croatia have been playing fast, high-energy, creative games – any of these three could be taking home the World Cup this year!
