...made a B-movie that can easily stand next to such giants as Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!, and Plan 9 From Outer Space. I, for one, saw Chucky the way it was meant to be seen: in an empty theater on a Monday night, with some friends, and a bunch of drunk guys and four-year-olds yelling at the screen. It was the most fun I've had since I came to Massachusetts. Benjamin L. McKean...

...half-dozen full-time students who, in their spare time, oversee the door-to-door delivery of more than 5,500 newspapers every day. Few comparable college newspapers attempt anything on this scale. The Princetonian only delivers to subscribers and the Yale Daily News merely leaves a bunch of papers at a central spot in the residential colleges, in spite of both papers having a readership an order of magnitude smaller than The Crimson's. Neither offers access to national newspapers on campus...

...Steve was having credibilityproblems. If Steve was so quick to call bandssell-outs (and even quicker to call themuntalented hacks), what the hell was he doingproducing albums for a bunch of major labelmonstrosities? Steve's answer--that sinceengineering's not an art, he's not prostitutinghimself, but rather extorting major labels withoutgiving a damn about the quality of the music hehappens to be recording--is relatively reasonable,but he's still intuitively branded a sell-out bymany. His position is somewhat undercut by hisdistinctive "engineering" style, which is perhapsthe most influential Albini legacy. Steve tries tomake it sound like...

...handed in the paper, this student's professor said to his class, "If anyone wants to, he can pick up his paper after the lecture." The student received his paper, was satisfied with a Gentleman's "C" and went to a Final Club to get drunk and meet a bunch of Wellesley girls. What did "he" have to be frustrated about...
