Curse me for not checking before I made a similar joke post!

As a side note, if you spend time in Paris, go and check the Rodin Museum near the Hôtel des Invalides. It was the last place that Rodin used as a studio. Not only it’s an exquisite hôtel particulier (De Gaulle considered moving the French presidency there), but it’s one of the greatest series of works you can find in…

Fuck this film and the horse it Rodin on.

I’ll never forget the old guy who used to call in to the ISP that I did tech support for back in the ‘90s. He never said he had a problem or gave us error messages, he just said ‘I can’t get my ladies’ and we knew who it was.

My brain switched gears pretty quickly there, where it’s like “He goes to all this trouble to track down willing participants, arrange the meet-up, host at his own house for this reasonably unusual, socially acceptable only in some fairly small circles fetish and he’s ruining it with dad jokes? Dude, you set up five…

How else will we find out how Thorongil won the Millenium Falcon from Cirdan and made the Umbar Run in less than twelve leagues?

“I’m that character from Lord of the Rings: Viggio Morgenstein!”

Puts nerd glasses on...Aragorn has some elf blood in him, which is what gave him his longer life.

‘From Bauhaus to Our House’ [1981] is so very excellent. Think I’ve only re-read Michael Ondaatje’s ‘Coming Through Slaughter’ [1976] more times. Context: ‘Devils’s Own Works’ by Alan Judd & ‘Recognitions’ by William Gaddis are also faves too etc.

This is the worst thing to happen on Millionaire since Regis talked Norm MacDonald out of going for the $1m question when he knew the answer.

I went as Michele for Halloween in 2012. I wore a fake back brace, glued fruit magnets to the back of my 80's style sweatshirt, and wore my hair in a scrunchie on top of my head. It was glorious.
