What Are You Thinking About Right Now?
DragonSinger replied to DragonSinger's topic in General Discussion
It's an almost 3 hour PG-13 Fergully with groundbreaking special effects but a script from the 80's. It pissed me the fuck off, and I dropped it like almost halfway through the movie. How the fuck you gonna spend all that money on razzle dazzle but the writing is shit? HOW? -

I had no idea Ben McKenzie was out here writing books about the finance world. Okay, get those extra coins. And that's why Viserys Targaryen looked so damn familiar. He was on Hot Fuzz! -
Happy Birthday Buddy!

Even More Random Shit Found on the Internet
DragonSinger replied to nameraka's topic in General Discussion
I just ran into a reference about this guy for the first time, and this is a lot: Tarrare Tarrare ([taʁaʁ]; c. 1772 – 1798), sometimes spelled Tarar, was a French showman and soldier noted for his unusual appetite and eating habits. Able to eat vast amounts of meat, he was constantly hungry; his parents could not provide for him and he was turned out of the family home as a teenager. He travelled France in the company of a band of prostitutes and thieves before becoming the warm-up act for a travelling charlatan. In this act, he would swallow corks, stones, live animals, and a whole basketful of apples. He then took this act to Paris where he worked as a street performer. At the start of the War of the First Coalition, Tarrare joined the French Revolutionary Army, where even quadrupling the standard military ration was unable to satisfy his large appetite. He would eat any available food from gutters and rubbish heaps but his condition still deteriorated through hunger. He was hospitalised due to exhaustion and became the subject of a series of medical experiments to test his eating capacity, in which, among other things, he ate a meal intended for 15 people in a single sitting, ate live cats, snakes, lizards, and puppies, and swallowed eels whole without chewing. Despite his unusual diet, he was underweight and, with the exception of his eating habits, he showed no signs of mental illness other than what was described as an apathetic temperament. General Alexandre de Beauharnais decided to put Tarrare's abilities to military use, and employed him as a courier for the French army, with the intention that he would swallow documents, pass through enemy lines, and recover them from his stool once safely at his destination. Tarrare could not speak German, and on his first mission, he was captured by Prussian forces, severely beaten, and underwent a mock execution before being returned to French lines. Chastened by this experience, he agreed to submit to any procedure that might cure his appetite, and was treated with laudanum, tobacco-pills, wine-vinegar, and soft-boiled eggs. The procedures failed, and doctors could not keep him on a controlled diet; he would sneak out of the hospital to scavenge for offal in gutters, rubbish heaps and outside butchers' shops, and attempted to drink the blood of other patients in the hospital and to eat the corpses in the hospital's morgue. After being suspected of eating a toddler, he was ejected from the hospital. He re-appeared four years later in Versailles with a case of severe tuberculosis and died shortly afterwards, following a lengthy bout of exudative diarrhoea. -

Dancer secret: we can have some of the shittiest taste in music. All we want is a decent beat and don't care about shit else. Look up "Imagine Dragons" and "choreography" on youtube and you gon' see. -

I don't care, I like Unholy by Sam Smith. I know it's the dancer in me that likes bad music that lets me groove. Thanks to the folks that took out Kim Petra's parts the best they could though. -

Thank fucking God I switched to serial stories. Traditional publishing is just more depressing news back to back. -

I just want to try Whataburger one time. Why won't the lines calm down? I refuse to wait an hour+ for fast food because that ruins the experience before you even eat. Damn that university near it and other folks wanting a 5 a.m. burger. -
Happy Birthday!

Wonder Woman 3 canceled as DC faces massive shake up
DragonSinger replied to Jman's topic in Movies & Television
The Wonder Woman news didn't even bother me because they practically made her a rapist in the last movie, but the Batman Beyond cancellation... 😭 I fucking hate DC. -
I think our humor is reversed because I couldn't stand Kung Pow 😆. It's weird because they're both over the top, but KFH did it in a way that my brain was happy

If I was into weed, I would definitely get that coffee mug bong shaped like a unicorn. -

My procrastination today is at a level that I have to watch a Twitch of someone writing in order to write. -

No but seriously, why was Wonder Woman 2 so bad, and why are only the island parts where the Amazons live at so great? That second part bugs me a lot.
