This struck a chord. When my (amazing) father died I lost someone who had been a pretty close friend because of something like this. Their own parental trauma made them attack and mock me for grieving because, like you say, they needed to believe that everybody had a terrible dad in order to cope with theirs. They…

I like fat bears and I cannot lie

Wow I didn’t even realise Huang had any involvement at all in the production, brief as it was. I thought it was like Anthony Bourdain and the failed “Kitchen Confidential” series (which I like actually!), basically just taking the money and accepting they’ll do whatever with the adaptation. 

My unrealistic AHS dream was for a season that adapted Chuck Palahniuk’s “Haunted”. There’s a character for every performer in his repertory.

And some of what has been done about the Green River Killer more focused on the police involving fucking Bundy in developing a profile for the investigation. I’m pretty sure Spike from “Buffy” played him (Bundy) in one mid 2000s telemovie.

Yep, the US version of Ghosts is good actually, which was a very pleasant surprise.

Whoa she’s Tess? I haven’t really followed any of the news about the show so don’t know any casting except Joel and Ellie. Torv as Tess is a great choice!

Shit, I wonder if Jennifer Lawrence was aware of how Russell was treating Adams on “American Hustle”. He was fawning all over Lawrence at the same time. 

“THANKS FOR THE RIDE, LADY!”

I LOVED Red Dead Redemption 2, but I did NOT love the lack of a full fast travel mechanic. Yes yes iMmErSiOn and RiDiNg tHrOugH tHe LaNdScApE Is a biG pArT Of tHe ExPeRieNce. But FFS, when I have less than 90 minutes to sit and play a game I’d rather not have to spend even 10 minutes of it just getting to the quest…

Came to the comments to see if I was the only weirdo who knew this. 

Interesting, and I wonder how the investigation and prosecution of the sexual assault was going in the meantime? 🤔

To be fair, Arthur had the subplot with Mary (think that was her name?) and an optional side mission was to go on a date to the theatre with her. I still remember how I didn’t realise it was going to be a date. Otherwise I’d have gone for a bath and shaved and changed into something dapper. Instead I went to the…

Americans, what region is that accent? It’s fucking adorable!

She didn’t want any of them to outlive her. It was going well until she was gifted two more after Philip died. Maybe they get burned on her funerary pyre? 

Yeah…. I know rationally the odds are tiny. But on the other hand, I saw “Final Destination 3”. 

Starred for owning up to a shitty reaction.

Having a look to see which of some of the most vitriolic ones have actually commented here now the post is up is…interesting, given how important an instantaneous response was to them.

Fuck Turkish Delight, I wanted to know what the drink was the White Witch gave Edmund along with it. CS Lewis doesn’t say, just that it was hot and amazing. In the old BBC series it was green and foamy.

Every time I deal with a spider I think about the copy of Plants vs Zombies that ended up stuck on Fahey’s office ceiling and wonder if it’s still there.
