Meghan Mullally's librarian in Parks & Rec is the greatest ever. This cannot be debated. That being said, Barbara Gordon (Batgirl!) was a librarian once & we all know she's a queen of badassery.

A Century of Terror: The 100 Best Horror Movies of the Last 100 Years

10 Punk Albums to Listen to Before You Die
Let me be quick to point out, it doesn't say TOP 10 punk albums, just 10 punk albums. I agree. If you like the punk genre or are just starting to get into it, these 10 selections should absolutely blow your mind before you shuffle loose this mortal coil. Happy listening and junk.
30 Cult Movies You Must See
There are some truly God-awful films on this list, but there are some pretty good ones as well. Buckaroo Banzai was marketed like mad, especially in comic books of the era, yet most people barely remember this gem, if at all. How many on the list have you seen?

History's full of cool stuff and after 1840 or so, cameras existed to provide visual proof of said coolness. That pic? Fucking awesome. Read on.
