Yeah, I read and re-read that sentence and thought, WOW.

I don’t know any one in touring bands (at least at the level of playing small clubs and driving their own van from gig to gig) who expect to have a bed to themselves, let alone separate hotel rooms for each member of the band. My husband and I regularly let bands crash at our place, and they’re so excited to not be…

I’m wondering, how does the horse feel about that?

“You can like paint on a horse.”

There are several ghost stories on this list, and no matter how well or poorly conveyed, or how much or little you may dislike the orator based on word choice or content, you choose to discount the only one with religious overtones? Prejudiced much? I, for one, don’t buy the hand story. If we’re going to believe in…

I don’t run around telling my story for this exact reason, the naysayers. It’s unfortunate because physical encounters need to be taken seriously. It’s been nearly ten years since it happened and I remember the details, the feelings, my thoughts and emotions like it was yesterday. The reality of my terror…

Came here for this. Huge leap of reasoning to go from “star-69 used to exist” to “call came from inside the house”

I was at a Halloween party one year, and one of the hosts brought out a Ouija board—I think as a joke.

Yeah the thrift store story is not real. It’s a moderately well written short story but...not real. I wish people would stop treating this as a fiction submission contest, I only want that real shit!

I didn’t understand the phone clapping one. That seems like an enormous leap to say that the call came from inside the house. Prank calls were extremely common in the 80s and 90s. It’s so much more likely that this was just a coincidence that the prank call’s content matched what she was doing at the time, than it is…

LOL - Thank you! I was surprised they didn’t correct that or at least put in a (sic) It does bring up a very different image than the author surely intended.

So, I immediately went to my mom’s recommended psychic (I know) and told him everything. He very calmly said, “Well, I think it’s safe to say, it likes you. And hates Ally.” He then told me that if I didn’t want it to bother me, all I needed to do was audibly and clearly tell it exactly what I expected it to do.…

Um... “Toe head” brings a very different (and much more hilarious) picture than does a “towhead.” Likewise “heard animal” and “herd animal.”

You forgot to mention how he stays away from casting minorities too. These old guys have such a narrow perspective on what makes a good movie and which stories are moving, enlightening and interesting. They obviously can’t be bothered to cast non-white actors or explore stories that includes female and minority leads.…

“Salty?” “smacks upside the head? I miss rudenegro.

I love the MCU stuff cos it’s so brilliant to look at. I also love quiet indie films (though right now the only thing in my head is Truffaut). I *do* see artistry in MCU though, because the actual artwork and design that goes into the universe and CGI is indeed art, just a different type and I think it’s rude for…

“I mean that’s like saying Bugs Bunny ain’t funny. Films are films. Everybody doesn’t like his stuff either. Everybody’s got an opinion, so I mean it’s okay. Ain’t going to stop nobody from making movies.”

This is a real Alien vs. Predator situation here, and I think it’s pretty hilarious that this is what people focused on from Scorsese’s recent interviews and not him bitching about being asked about why he’s been virtually incapable of making a movie with a woman in it for the last 40 years.

Shame I’ll never know what this story is since I don’t have speakers on my computer and thus can’t watch / listen to videos...

I feel like everyone is forgetting allergies. You don’t just blow your nose a lot when you’re sick, y’know, and people with lots of allergies want to go out to eat, too. If you’re one of those people, and you get up and go all the way to the bathroom every time you need to clear your nose, you won’t ever eat. (sauce:…
