  1. I posted my initial thoughts here in Sunday after I saw the film, but it’s been sitting with me and I’ve come to appreciate it more now that I have some distance from the more disgusting parts (and this is the most disgusting movie I’ve seen). I definitely recommend it if you like body horror, if you like French films, you want to see an incredible performance (Demi Moore), or if you want to see a horror-comedy spectacular. If you are squeamish in ANY WAY, you’re going to have to be very brave. I easily held a pillow in front of my face for 30+ minutes of the run time, and at one point had to apologize for all the moaning I was doing (would if they were moans of pleasure). It’s like nothing I’ve ever seen and it amazed me, scared me, and made me feel sick. Again I don’t want to understate how disgusting and disturbing the visuals can get. By the end I was laughing it was so preposterous, but there are moments and stretches of minutes where I couldn’t look at the screen and could barely listen to it. I don’t want anyone going in unwarned LIKE I WAS. My best friend put this on and I feel violated. But also…grateful, because I would have never sought this out of my own volition and it’s a film that needs to be seen.
  2. How many o’ y’all use reading glasses? I have hit the age that in addition to my normal prescription, I have another pair of glasses (+1.75, so far) cuz I can’t read any-damn-thing. 40’s be hittin’ hard lately.
  3. It’s…snowing again. This is bizarre to have it a second time in nine days.
  4. Toriyama’s final take on his seminal work of Dragon Ball, it’s often meandering, ponderous, and…I love it. What some people aren’t getting is this is CLEARLY a show for children, and they think they’re watching something furthering the “Dragon Ball mythos” which is in itself hilarious. I’m watching it with the four year old and we’re having a blast. It’s silly and fun and series has never been animated better outside of the movies.
  5. Please, Baltimore or Buffalo, it matters not to me…please beat the Chiefs next week.
  6. This has been a wild game and it’s not just because my wife procured a new dab pen, and I also bought reading glasses because I’ve become THAT OLD. It’s been just nuts!
  7. She’s ridiculous
  8. Suspiciously had similar interest and lists to me so I’m not sure if there’s a Tyler Durden situation going on.
  9. Top 3 fights in Dragon Ball Z 3. Goku vs Perfect Cell 2. Goku vs Vegeta (saiyan saga) 1. Piccolo vs Android 17
  10. These games have mostly stunk, I always forget they’re not usually competitive in the wildcard round
  11. Baltimore Buffalo is gonna be fuuuuuun
  12. Loved to hear a Raven’s fan yell “that’s fucking retarded!!” Love the AFC North…
  13. I can’t wait to watch Hard Knocks
  14. Lamar is scaring me how much he’s running, gonna flirt with injury
  15. Chargers O line seems completely outclassed by Houston’s defense thus far, Herbert’s gonna have to do his best Tua impression and get the ball out fast
  16. Three inches is more than enough, everyone says it…
  17. Same, that’s the thing people from outside the south don’t get. Snow is fine! Wonderful even. It’s the amount of ice from the melt and refreeze that gets us. That and we don’t have the infrastructure to deal with it.
  18. We get it maybe twice a decade. It’s only maybe three inches but it’s huge for us.
  19. TheseThese are the end times
  20. Oh naraku… *audience laughs, claps, roll on credits*
  21. Fun fact! There’s something called a primary stabbing headache, colloquially known as an “ice pick headache.” It’s a rare headache that causes intense pain for one to two seconds, usually in the temple, then goes away completely and without any residual pain. It can happen on and off for hours, or even days. It’s so sporadic that there’s not a lot of treatment options, and it’s not really known why they happen or what triggers them. So of course I get them. It started five years ago, I thought I was having an aneurysm. I’ve only had it happen about 15 times in the last five years and it only lasts for a few hours…until Monday. It’s been happening two days straight and I want to die. Hows your Wednesday?
  22. Venture Brothers is the best thing adult swim ever produced
