RACE PLANET INDOOR GO-KARTS
I would rather drive go karts than 97% of all other activities in the world, combined. I made a list, I weighed my options and it’s true. Indoor go karting is is the top 3% of all possible things that a sentient being can do.

Nate’s problems with Godzilla
1) Does Godzilla love humans or hate other monsters?
2) Either way you have to admire the tenacity of the soldiers willing to fire thousands of rounds into something that can’t be injured by bullets.
3) Even after the monsters have been fighting in San Francisco for some time and the Golden Gate bridge has been destroyed there is an office full of office people doing office work, that are SURPRISED by the MONSTERS fighting just outside their window
4) I like that part where the soldiers whisper, like the Praying mantis monster is listening.
5) Hey helicopter pilots, maybe fly a little bit out of the reach of the monster, like a dog on a chain.
