I think you hit publish before writing “..but only when you’re hung over.”

He’ll be catching heat all the way to the bank!

At the very least you should check out my bootleg of King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard live on the King Biscuit Flower Hour. 

Believe it or not there a guy named Chris opened “Chris Steak House” and a woman named Ruth bought it and awkwardly slapped her name on there too. I can only hope this trend continues the chain has six or seven clunky first names attached by the end of the century. 

Those are certainly strikes against liking a band. I’ll allow it in certain cases. If you’re making progressive art rock in Europe in the early 70s then I would expect nothing less. 

I’ve avoided Good Will Hunting on general principle because the character’s name is Will Hunting and the name of the movie presents itself as a clever play on that, turning it into a commonly used phrase.. But no one, ever, has said “Goodwill Hunting.” That is not a thing people say.

You’ll probably do well to avoid Olivia Tremor Control and the whole Elephant 6 collective who tend to have similar naming schemes.

It’s also so totally Ecks’ movie, Sever is a minor character at best. I’d just call it Ballistic: Ecks. 

Actually you spelled it wrong too. It’s “Lucky Number Sle7in.”

I don’t see how you can be missing their music considering how inescapable their (perfectly fine) hit seems to be. 

Mobster Robert DeNiro first goes to see psychiatrist Billy Crystal.

Rock Star Supernova will always be #1. Maybe if Prophets of Rage acquired Dave Navarro, then we could talk.

Anyway, the Machine won, so we should just stop raging and embrace it. 

It seems to me this is a guy who likes chaos and likes to mindfuck. He tolerates a clearly abused house servant talking back to him, even seems to enjoy it... I doubt he’s resistance, maybe he’s just going to mentally torture her for kicks.

The Canadian stuff is very frustrating. In the book you get the sense the whole world is a mess, not that life goes on more or less unfettered in Toronto. 

It’s possible, of course, that Whitford (and Julie Dretzin, who plays Eleanor Lawrence) will return next year, but if that’s not to be—and I suspect it isn’t—it will mean that these fascinating scenes are a mismatch, and not a new window through which to peer. That would be a shame.

I don’t know. I don’t need to see the continuing adventures of Winston Smith in 1984 where he keeps getting fucked with then joins the resistance and frees Britain and retires a free but damaged man. I thought the Handmaid’s Tale book ended exactly where it needed to as well and I fear taking this show through the…

Does Hardwick at least get to keep Singled Out?

Tipping 50% is weird. It’s like you’re both apologizing and trying prove to the waitstaff you’ll never see again you aren’t the low-class ruffians you appear to be. It probably has the opposite effect, too, and they think you’re either recent lottery winners or are on the run after knocking over a Wawa.

Unfortunately all of our Canadian girlfriends are currently in detention camps for trying to cross the border.
