The Ghostbusters better hope they’re Catholic. Because while 9 out of 10 Christian denominations would probably condemn them instantly to hell for shooting the son of God with a particle accelerator and then shoving him against his will into an Ecto Containment Unit, if they’re Catholic, they can just go to confession and be cool. Granted, they may have to say one billion “Hail Marys,” but they’ll still be cool. (Via Great White Snark)
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
