Simon Dillon is my favorite film reviewer. His opinions are grounded in decades of devotion to film and its practitioners, and his writing is deeply insightful and very entertaining. You'll learn, you'll laugh, and eventually you'll come to love your benevolent Emperor.
Anyone here ever read Grant Naylor? Well, that was the pen name of Rob Grant and Doug Naylor who made the excellent Britcom Red Dwarf back in the day. "Go Double Plus" was the main character Lister's caffeine pills. Yay for hyperbole! Go big or go home :)
Marmi has one of the freshest, funniest voices I've read. Come for the pop culture, stay for the hilarious trips down memory lane.
Humor in the Funny Times, Christian Science Monitor, Medium, Twitter, TikTok. Prone to depression, but can you blame me?
Bev is one of the funniest writers I have ever read. She has a thoughtful yet witty way of stepping back to look at modern life and asking: What's that about, anyway? Highly recommended!
