1991 was a weird year. I don't remember the Bonk one but I literally saw a Bart Simpson versus Saddam Hussein "these colors don't run" t-shirt at a water park! I was very confused little kid

They sentenced me to five years because I was looking everywhere for my headphones, which were hanging around my neck.

Okay, it's time. I have a prized Cult of the dead cow Zippo lighter. These simply do not exist anywhere. But a CDC member is hurting and I want to encourage donations to the GoFundMe, so out it goes. Details in thread.

i'm just sayin', that's piss color! certainly not the color of vinegar!

i think the idea is neat. i think the movie looks cool. i think the soundtrack is great. the soundtrack to tron legacy is also great. however, they are boring fucking movies. sorry.

Jer @whydoisay.bsky.social · 1d

everyone's doing the "why tron? am tron good or bad?" rn, bc tron 3 is a thing. and ppl are talking about how it's never been a big success but pioneered certain special effects and keeps coming back but WHY? how come no one is bringing up that the script sucks and the movie is too long and boring?
