  1. Apocalypse Karen was great and the other cast wasn't too bad, either. I loled at the last scene. The Friends references were killing me.
  2. Or when the water main in front of the house breaks and a utility crew is out there for hours digging up the yard. FML.
  3. What a good girl. Nonprofit says fosters needed after rescue Labrador Retriever gives birth to 14 puppies Lady Longhorn’s puppy’s names Boys Vince Earl Colt Major Sark Mack Girls Quinn Jordan Ricky Sam Brook Jaylen Sugar (Bowl) Rose (Bowl)
  4. Sounds like the SNL skit where Andy Samberg was a 13-yo consultant on Game of Thrones.
  5. One of my favorites - I always crack up at the scene where she's trying her upscale accent for the first time and says about her alcoholic aunt "it was like mother's milk to her."
  6. Has anyone seen Leave the World Behind? I tried reading the book years ago and the writing was so fucking pretentious I barely got through 1/4 of it before I stopped. I actually wrote down a few quotes in case anyone asked me how it was, spoilered below. But I do still find the premise intriguing and I wonder if it comes across better in film.
  7. Shit, I'm not sure I fully understood it now. There are definitely plot holes but I can see how it influenced a future generation of psychological thrillers/horror. "I fucking told you" 😂
  8. Believe it or not, I hadn't seen this until now.
  9. I had to stop at several points, starting with the story about the dog.
  10. Yeah, I'd consider it if it was just my kid, but I'd still have to drive the other ones in carpool if he wasn't there. So we'll all be stuck in traffic together.
  11. Yeah, I think getting down there is going to be ok; it's the drive home that might be messy. Not a huge deal; it's just something I'm trying to plan for.
  12. Yeah, we live northwest off Mopac but my son's school is south of the river and tomorrow is my day for carpool. Is it normal to do this on a weekday at rush hour? Thankfully it's been a long time since an officer died in the line of duty so I don't remember what happened last time.
  13. Got a call from AISD a couple of hours ago that Officer Pastore's funeral procession will start tomorrow at 8 am at Mopac/2222, and staging will begin at 7. They're calling to give everyone a heads up because of traffic/school bus schedule delays. Does anyone know if the roads shut down at staging time or procession start time?
  14. I fucking DIED at the story about the almost fight in the Senate yesterday. You have to be a special kind of moron to challenge - to fisticuffs! - a man who is not only president of the Teamsters, but who is named Sean O'Brien and is from Medford. THAT's the guy you want to pick a fight with? I was talking to a friend about this last night and this morning she sent me this TikTok and said "this is you talking about it last night." Yes, yes it was.
  15. I really didn't get the horror classification of this one at first. The whole time I kept waiting for something really crazy to happen. And then.
  16. Was this the case with the cab driver? I thought he was just a random person drawn into the whole thing, but maybe I missed something.
  17. Ugh, I'm glad I read this thread before watching the series. The book was great and I don't want this to ruin it. God help us if they try to adapt Cloud Cuckoo Land.
  18. This is exactly what I said - from the first botched hit to everything else. Some other thoughts: I do generally like Fincher. Just didn't love this one.
  19. One to add to this list - They Look Like People. It's super low-budget indie horror, and the friendship at the center of the narrative really makes the film. I laughed out loud at some parts, which I definitely wasn't expecting. It's free on Tubi.
  20. I really enjoyed this A24 film - I read a list of horror movies Mike Flanagan recommends and this was on it, and I've been thinking about it ever since. Want to do a rewatch soon. And there's a creepy song that'll get stuck in your head.
