For the record, I’m a fan of the theory that might honestly be the darkest, which is that both of them are completely human... but because of the reasonable paranoia of what they just went through, they’ll never, ever know that, and so they’ll just freeze to death.

The beauty of this open-ended finale is that it feels like the perfect setup for literally every possible scenario regarding whether one, both, or neither are “things” right then.

Oh, yeah?

Hell, her dad also had an assault charge once upon a time (unlike Emma, though, it wasn’t domestic violence, but reportedly for punching a cop who was trying to break up Eric’s domestic *disturbance.* Salient distinction, that).

Luckily, that makes what happens to her in Scream 4 very satisfying...

You’ve maybe heard of her father, Eric, and almost definitely have heard of her aunt, Julia, though.

Thank you for responding. Unfortunately, I think most people will probably miss my attempts to correct the error. Ah, well. Having strangers think less of me online for mistaken reasons is still better treatment than most teachers put up with.

“the people they need to attract and retain not run off (sic) are the ones that seem to leave.” I was trying to call attention to how this part of their comment applies to teachers, too. Far too many talented, excellent teachers leave the profession due to burnout.

None, and only now do I realize how my comment communicated the opposite of what I was trying to say. I was trying to call attention to the “the people they need to attract and retain not run off (sic) are the ones that seem to leave” part of their comment. Being married to a teacher, I’ve seen far too many of my…

I’m only now realizing how poorly construed my response was.

You are right about teachers being shat on. My wife is a teacher, and some of the ways parents have communicated with her have... sigh.

It’s not ‘til I re-read the comment I was responding to that I realized how I could be misconstrued. I was referring to the “the people they need to attract and retain not run off are the ones that seem to leave” part of their comment.

So exactly like the teaching profession, basically.

Don’t forget the several lines devoted to what the serial killer’s farts are like. King sure loves himself some toilet humor.

He likes all types of music, though. He’s always been a bit of an omniglot toward all aspects of pop culture. I remember him waxing poetic about Amy Winehouse in one of his “Pop of King” articles for Entertainment Weekly back in the day.

I mean, yeah, that’s probably true. Also, holy crap am I out of touch with what’s gone on in this last era. I’ll get back to everybody on whether or not I actually decide to fix that. (Either way, though, thanks for the response.)

This is probably the best way anyone could have responded to my question. XD
Thank you for reminding me of the MST3K Mantra:

Man, I really wanted this movie to be better than it was. Like you said, it wasn’t bad, just mediocre and pretty forgettable. But it could have been great, instead.

I’m bit rusty on my Doctor Who fandom, but wouldn’t someone whose parents didn’t marry until 2010 be, at most, 13 years old? Yeah, yeah, I know, wibbly wobbly, timey wimey, but still. This timeline does not add up.

I wonder whether the Kill Count’s James A. Janiesse would welcome this. Seeing as he’s recapping horror movies on his Kill Count videos, it seems like he’s constantly dealing with Youtube bans (often seemingly-petty, misguided ones). If this new policy provides a buffer against getting strikes, it’s probably a sigh of…
