For those of you brave enough to get on a plane today, just a reminder, nothing beats airport margaritas. Possibly the only good thing to come out of man conquering flight. Happy Yam Sham.

It didn’t happen around Christmas but I do see the similarities in being trapped with monsters you distrust.
Should John Carpenter's THE THING be officially classified as a Christmas movie? Let your voice be heard!

I did this on a flight from Portland to Asheville. I spent the entire flight binging Interview w/ the Vampire & I gotta say it’s the best flying experience I’ve ever had. This isn’t an endorsement .

Rewatched part of PLURIBUS episode 4, "Please, Carol" for a piece I'm writing, and I was especially struck by Larry telling Carol that Helen ate cotton candy four times in her life. "Oh, you weren't there," he says, with a self-deprecating little chuckle. It's such a small moment, and it's so huge.

Yeah. Hanks is cute & all but definitely makes you wonder how slim those underwater pickens must’ve been to go through the nightmare she endured.
Also we should remake SPLASH as a horror movie.

You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you're going to go through life thinking that girls don't like you because you're a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won't be true. It'll be because you're an asshole Charlie Brown.
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure, Charlie Brown

I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand the post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think you're entitled to Charlie Brown!

Preach.
As someone who is this guy's age I can tell you 100% that if you were into Pixies, Nirvana, 120 Minutes stuff, etc. but didn't like the Beatles you had to have worked hard to contort yourself into that special little box. Your enemy, if you absolutely needed one, was hair metal. GTFO here with this.

Love this brief but crucial scene with the late great L Q Jones as the county commissioner marking the beginning of the end of Ace Rothstein’s Vegas empire without him realising it yet. Jones apparently helped write the scene.

(I am doing Thanksgiving for twelvish next week and I have made many kinds of mashed potatoes over the years and am still willing to pick this fight)
