Immoral Mathematics

Hey, Germany. The pope is infallible! He doesn’t have to obey your stupid traffic laws. If he wants to do a hundred miles per hour backward down a one way street, on the sidewalk, texting with one hand while he Tokyo Drifts through a school zone, screaming, “I don’t give a fuck!” with his windows rolled down and his system up… that’s God’s will.

— Stephen Colbert, (on whether or not the Pope should have to wear his seatbelt in Germany)

Why Loki Won in the Avengers →

starkreactor:

“I want to explain how Joss Whedon managed to write the perfect Xanatos Gambit. For those who don’t know, a Xanatos Gambit (named for the villain Xanatos from Disney’s Gargoyles cartoon) is a plan that literally cannot fail because win or lose, the villain wins. This is one of those “I wanted you to beat me all along” scenarios, where defeating the villain somehow means the hero still loses. This isn’t changing your plans to compensate or getting lucky, this is planning all along for every possible outcome to lead to what you want. And Loki in the Avengers does so perfectly.”
