I feel like I'm writing The Turner Diaries and I hate it. This shit happened to me! It was weird!

“Hey, what do you got there,” Chaim asked, with a phlegmy voice more befitting a 40-year-old Rabbi than a second grader. I peeled off the top slice of bread, that seedy whole-grain stuff that no kid ever likes. "Turkey and cheese,” I replied. At once, Chaim recoiled. “Turkey and cheese? Isaac, I thought you were Jewish! Are you not?” I looked at him quizzically.

I am discovering that the problem with writing about growing up as a Reform Jew surrounded by Orthodox and Conservative Jews is that it's really hard not to sound antisemitic

Lollll totally forgot the story of how Richard Kelly convinced The Rock to star in SOUTHLAND TALES:

How much of the casting was just you meeting with people and pitching it?
I mean, it was Dwayne. I remember, I met with Dwayne in Venice Beach. And he was just so lovely.
He signed on right away
What did you tell him?
I had a big visual presentation. Ron Cobb had done schematics for the MegaZeppelin. I brought my MegaZeppelin schematics the Firehouse restaurant in Venice Beach. Dwayne rolled up in his Humvee and I was showing him MegaZeppelin schematics and he was very amused. He said yes immediately. Yeah. It needed a big star.

edited screenshots from Burn After Reading.

George Clooney (with cow horns and ears) proudly stands behind a contraption and says "what is it?" then, with two fingers he sets the chair rocking back and forth which causes a lump-with-handle cow tool to thrust up through a slot in the seat of the chair with an accompanying vinyl squeak sound.

Frances McDormand, (also with cow ears and horns) looks on with awe and says, "that's fantastic!"

Current level of normality in the discourse:

( ) NORMAL: the football player is footballing wrong
( ) ALERT: some company changed their logo
( ) SEVERE: game has the wrong difficulty
(X) HAZARDOUS: an easily panicked horse has been left in charge of social moderation
( ) WEBCOMIC COMMENTS SECTION
