Mayor La Guardia's war on pinball machines received a boost from World War II, when metal was in high demand. On February 21, 1942, hizzoner looked over a collection of scrap metal, including pin balls and their machines, to donate to the federal government. It was estimated that the haul would be enough to make four 2,000-pound aerial bombs.

When you need a new show to watch, I can't recommend Twisted Metal enough. I was worried it would be terrible but the music licensing alone is impressive. Dark comedy, great writing and acting - they cast a wrestler for Sweet Tooth which is genius considering you need exaggerated physical moves for a masked character. Balanced story/action/comedy. I wanted to see the Brothers Grimm, but fingers crossed for season 2. POC cast, LGBTQIA+ representation, female empowerment, body positivity - more of this, please. You mother fuckers really did this. 🤡 🚘 🍕 🚀 🚔 🍆 🌼

This is round 7 of the secondary bracket of a double elimination tournament to determine the best K.K. song. These songs have lost once before, but are still in the running. The song with the most votes will move on.

Consider:
Crosshair and his Elite Squad in their ship heading back from a mission.
Crosshair is always in charge of the aux:
CRAAAWLING IIIIN MY SKIIIIN!!!
“Sir, could we change the mus-“
Crosshair turns the volume up.
The next song comes on. It’s Bring Me To Life by Evanescence.
Crosshair is mouthing the lyrics under his helmet. The stormtroopers wonder if this job was just one of the circles of Hell.
