Eventually it kills them - I suspect the soap suffocates them.

We’ve got ‘em here in Winchester, VA - we have a grape vine in the back yard and these suckers love it. They’re crafty, they’ll move to the other side of the branch when they see you. And the advice to “stomp ‘em” is easier said than done - they are fast! Our preferred solution is a strong spray bottle with a mixture…

Not so new...

Also also also, as well, too: many of those enemies were SPECIFICALLY TOLD not to harm the halflings!

To be fair, (pushing spectacles up on nose) Tolkien did at least make a nod to the idea that the hobbits are frequently just not even noticed in battle due to their size. Plus they got them spiffy elf-camouflage cloaks...

“‘It’s not always a misfortune being overlooked,’ said Merry. ‘I was overlooked just now by – no,…

The thumbs-up is one of the reasons I...well, I won’t say I dislike T2 but I don’t care for it nearly as much as the first one. They could have told a story about a Terminator being sent to protect John Connor without making him a super-cool cuddly quip machine. But, ymmv.

Worth mentioning that hiding this widget can cause a fun problem whereby the other icons (network, sound, time) will slide off the screen to the right if you use the “show hidden icons” arrow, especially if you have a percentage increase on your display.

Boy I hate when people write “sike”. It’s “psych” - as in, “psych-out”.

Oh great, more high-dollar Middle-earth fan fiction.

He also played one of the main characters in the most depressing sequence in “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs”.

Um, don’t let the door hit you?

Buffy started in 1997 and ended in 2003. Angel started in 1999 and ended 2004. Firefly ran 2002 - 2003, well towards the end of Buffy and at least halfway through Angel.

I was at the Austin sneak-preview screening of Serenity where Nathan Fillion and Ron Glass showed up and did a good hour-long Q&A after the movie. He seemed charming, humble, and hilarious. If he’s a creep, he covers it really well.

I hear you, but I guess my point is that if that’s the case then not only is Whedon a crappy person, but a lot of the folks around him were as well - people I thought better of - for not speaking out against it or giving their implicit approval by socializing with him.

This came up in another Whedon-related thread; I wondered why we haven’t heard from any of the Firefly cast about issues any of them had with him. Someone wondered why I cared, that it didn’t negate anything any of the other actors have accused him of, and I’ve been sitting with that since then. I think I finally know…

Does anyone actually want this? Feels like this whole project was conceived when there was still the remotest amount of interest in anything GoT-related.

The last movie I went to see in a theater was at an Alamo in Austin - that was February of 2020.

We moved to Winchester, VA and there’s an Alamo here - my wife and I bought tickets to see a show just over two weeks after her second round of vax.

I am so. excited.

Missed opportunity: should have said he’s 0079 years old.

This one makes a great double feature with The Fountain.
