Poll Results: Who SHOULD have won Team Smackdown
So, like a bad issue of “What If” (and really, most issues were bad), we tried to imagine a world where the Team Smackdown was won by someone other than the X-Men. We left it to you, The Correct, to decide. And you spoke, clearly, loudly, and with no regard for conformity!
You chose… RobbieRobTown. I’ll leave it to him to come up with the narrative of how he beat the X-Men, but I suspect it has something to do with Marmalade, and Kitty Pryde. Or possibly Kitty Pryde in Marmalade, with no one else around. Either way, I’m reserving an early copy.

Johnny Depp: Attention Whore or not?
Okay, so over at Fark, there’s a thread discussing the merits of Johnny Depp, and an assertion has been made that he’s an attention whore. This seems ludicrous to me, as the guy is known for avoiding attention, and doing all kinds of charitable deeds like visiting Children’s Hospitals as Jack Sparrow.
More than just rehashing that argument, I’m interested in what our readers think in general, so why not start with Johnny Depp?
I’m curious as to what The Correct have to say. (oh, that’s YOU, by the way. I just came up with that.)

35 Reasons to Watch Babylon 5
Babylon 5 was easily one of the best, no, THE best science fiction show ever to have graced TV. I know you Trekkies are crapping bricks right now, deciding whether to scroll to the end and argue with me immediately, or whip out your notebooks to jot down each point you wish to argue.
But it’s true. It kicks ass in every possible way. Better story. Better story arcs. Better writing. Better ships. Better battles. I could go for days, and based on the title of this article, I probably will.
