Reminds me of turtles which where equatic animals 220 million years ago which underwent a weird genetic gene flip (that surprisingly didn’t kill the first one outright) their ribs were placed on the outside!

I watch a lot of Asian dramas. It ain’t just America.

I recall many years ago reading an article that claimed the most successful personality type in online dating is the ‘charming sociopath’. Imagine how much easier dating would be if you were immune to shame, cared nothing for the feelings of the other party, and were only focused on satisfying your own appetites.

I thought one of the qualifications to become a true Trumptard supporter was you had to be in Section 8 housing.

Ditto Herman Cain.

Covid deaths seem to be a ‘lagging indicator’. Because it takes a better part of a month for infected victims to die. Which means, considering the current spike in cases, we’re going to be in for a rough August.

I recall 20 years ago being in heavy traffic in downtown Boston and the vehicle in front of me was a ‘Hummer’ with a big sign in the back window: “I got (drawing of a screw) by GM”.

I recall seeing this film back in ‘96 and greatly enjoying it. I wonder if appreciation of the film has changed in the intervening years now that I’ve become thoroughly Tarantino’d-out.

You can’t blame Mercury Prize for this if not being a British national was Sayawama’s own personal choice. Only U.S. nationals are eligible for the Pulitzer Prize too, permanent residents are not. (The odd exception is foreign historians who write histories of the U.S.)

Years ago I worked in a big ad agency. It seemed the ‘beautiful’ people had to run a veritable gauntlet of horny extrovert coworkers deciding THEY’RE the one they want to have recreational sex with. Maeve the temp worker receptionist might might take your carnal interest as a compliment, but ‘beautiful person’ Brad or…

I’m reminded of that line ‘If they made a movie out of this nobody would believe it.’ I expect that in their quest to make a film adaptation that the public will ‘believe’ they’re going to soft-sell the pure evil of that wretched horrible man so as not to offend conservative viewers.

Ideology? What’s missing for you, do you want a ‘pro-monsters’ voice in the mix? ‘Both sides’ have not been ‘equal’ for a very very long time, ever since Ronald Reagan kicked off his presidential campaign at the site of a notorious lynching.

20 years living in the big bad city with my manual transmission vehicle, I came to consider it my ‘anti-theft device’. I’d imagine car thieves peering into my car, seeing the stick shift, and moving on to the Honda Accord further up the street. Granted the ‘big bad city’ hasn’t been particularly bad for a decade or…

I’m reminded of an old aphorism once said by LBJ. ‘Even a dog can tell the difference between being tripped over and kicked’. Sometimes if you feel you’ve been deliberately kicked it may have been because you were deliberately kicked.

Nicholson was presented to us at the beginning as a child rapist and physically violent individual without remorse who may have had some sort of borderline personality or bipolar disorder. He also fought against treatment and counciling tooth and nail.

Cuckoo’s Nest supposedly took place in 1963 (was filmed in 1975). What’s with all the 1940s faux glam? Nurse Ratched wasn’t some old hag in the film, I assume she was probably Nicholson’s character’s age. Considerably younger than Sara Paulson is currently.

Latest news on this is it was all a put-up job orchestrated by the Tea Party. Trump was touting this nonsense because this nonsense had been made-to-order specifically for him to tout.

The video was a fake event staged by the Tea Party. The one person in the group not wearing a lab coat was in fact a Tea Party operative who seemed to be in charge. Trump took note of the video because the video was made-to-order for him.

Attend a rock concert in the middle of a pandemic and you may be meeting Jimi Hendrix sooner than you expect.

I’m reminded of the final scene of the film ‘The Seventh Seal” where the characters dance off over the hill being led by Death.
