And did you tell him we don't use that term anymore?

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I prefer to use the word slow. Specifically the French word.  Makes  me sound more worldly.

So, I went on and fired up old Arrested Development episodes tonight, and I had a real shock when I realized that Lucille is Mallory Archer.  :lol:

They're basically the same character. :P

Stay Alive...Let the Man Drive

Ed Anger

Watched Fury Road again. Still mediocre but Joe is the hero of the film, while Max and the one arm chick are the villians.

Savonarola

CB and I watched a documentary on Sly and the Family Stone.  I think of Sly as the epitome of rock star Babylon; but the documentary didn't turn out like a Dave Chappelle sketch.  Today Sly lives in a van and is still battling substance abuse problems.  They interviewed Sly and he kept on breaking out humming music.  It was hard to watch and such a waste of a musical genius.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Watched London has Fallen, not as "good" as Olympus has Fallen but entertained me enough for a while.

The only scene I felt any feels was when I heard the air raid sirens. I guess I just hope those sirens are never heard in London again? Weird right?

Why would you watch a movie again that you dislike? Surely your few remaining years are more precious than that.

For those of you that haven't seen The Onion's review of Sully, I strongly recommend it.

The new Thor is made by the same guy who did What We Do in the Shadows and it shows in this short. :lol:

I really hope it's more like Waititi's solo feature debut, Hunt For the Wilderpeople; namely, that Sam Neill is in it in some capacity. :)  (ETA: and he is!  That's fun.)

Apparently only I, my girlfriend, and about five other people actually saw Wilderpeople, though. -_-
