All of this. I enjoyed the pretzel twist of old, young, and younger.

The lock breaking scene was a nice touch.

I think the hype came from a return to a rock/punk sensibility. After grunge morphed into that horrific late 90's daddy didn't hug me enough horseshit, the early 2000's kind of functioned as a palette cleanser. But i don't think that's the right analogy, because that implies that it was bland. I was in a punk/new wave…

Back before the merger, if you had a Sirius satellite subscription you got free or at least discounted access to it online. Mrs. Weasel travels for work so should would use it on road trips through BFE and I would listen online at work.

Good point. Bullies aren't generally known for being the sharpest knives in the drawer.

Too many times in TV and movies, characters seem a-ok or at least
somewhat ok after traumatic encounters. I appreciated the fact that
Nancy was freaked the fuck out when they returned home.

Leggo my Eggo, mouthbreather.
