I kicked off my 31 Days of Halloween marathon with The Monster Squad last night. Such a fun flick.

One of my favorite films.

I started with Wes Craven's New Nightmare (to finish out the series). Not sure what tonight will be. Possible FvJ or The Thing.

Looks familiar to me....

There's a musical composition called 4′33″ in which the ensemble sits still and most assuredly does not play any music for four minutes and thirty-three seconds. The 'music' is the ambient sounds of the auditorium. I wrote a paper on 433 for a music theory class. We had to decide if it was music or...

4'33" is the musical equivalent of duct taping a banana to a wall and calling it "art"

But it at least has a visual and textural quality to it. 433 is literally nothing.

Freddy vs Jason is a good time I don't understand when fans of either series knock on it. How much better could it have been given what it is? It's the second best NoES movie (I don't consider part 2 to be part of the series. It stands alone). Jason's fist kill is spectacular. The plot is actually ...

971867 However I am down 20lbs since May and down to half a pack a day. :thumb: Quitting smoking was insanely hard. I tried and failed numerous times. The only thing that was able to do the job was switching to vaping and then gradually lowering my nicotine strength starting from 12mg, to 6, then 3...

I started that video and then stopped it cause I had seen it before but it showed a window in the frame right as I stopped it. Glad I noticed and watched the whole thing.

I had made an appointment and cancelled it because my group had technically not been cleared and they were still saying 8 months which wouldn't be until November for me. I'm 18+ with underlying conditions the CDC determines are worthy of early vaccination. I'm fat, have high BP, and smoke. However I...

I'm a huge F13 fan. I don't mind Nightmare on ES but always been a Jason guy. I'm rewatching the NoES series and it's bad. Like really bad. The acting is so much worse and F13 ain't exactly Citizen Kane. The original is fantastic. 2 is special for what it is. The rest are hot garbage. However, New N...

Because the CDC cleared my group for a booster I get mine on Saturday. They said if there are flu shots there they'll give me one for free with the booster plus a $5 gift card.

Up: The Bar

I, for one, appreciate KCs honesty and willingness to discuss rationally. Even if I am unable to.

I'm not a tank to get a good draft kind of person but it wouldn't be the worst thing to go 2-15 or whatever. Any good QBs in this draft? I don't follow college athletics at all.

You think there is roughly an even spread of comedic talent across both genders? Is this your counter argument? I just think making a blanket statement that women aren't funny is a bad move. And if we're looking at comedians, then obviously more men than women seem to make it to a certain level. Bu...

Who were the funniest kids in your high school? Who are the funniest people you work with? Who are your funniest neighbors? Who are the comedic actors you laugh at the most? You guys act like this is a “women cannot be funny, period” thing. I could rattle off a dozen women I find to be hilarious. T...

The reason you don't see as many women stand ups is not because that gender isn't as funny. What the actual ****?

Highly recommend the documentary Hysterical if you want to see about the lack of women in stand up.

Gotta exercise those reflexes. Learn to be quick.

Wait...are the kids vaxxed?

The Public Continues to Underestimate COVID’s Age Discrimination https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2021/09/covid-19-vaccine-status-age-discrimination.html According to that data, an unvaccinated 10-year-old, who may look like the very picture of COVID vulnerability heading into the school year, faces...

Time uh...marches on

Just make the unvaxxed people treat the unvaxxed patients and save the vaxxed people for the vaxxed patients. Problem solved.

No PPE allowed either. And the unvaxxed can only work with unvaxxed Covid patients. That's it. Nothing else. Then they can share a room.

Saying that they were unvaxxed before so what's the point is kind of odd. There wasn't a vax before. There is now.

The intersection where Tyson knocked out an old man was right down the street from where I loved in MD. He used to train in Gaithersburg, MD.
