I’m always afraid I’ll cut myself when opening or closing a normal pocket knife.

Actually, come to think of it, this is a thing for me too. At least with knives that have the lock on the back of the handle. I much prefer the ones with the inline lock.

I thought switchblades were already illegal. Or is that just butterflies?

Depends on the state, and usually it’s a blade length maximum if memory serves. I think the one I carry is right on the line, if not a quarter inch or so too long.

I think it works pretty well, though the audio needs work after the cutaway back to Kylo.

OKNOTOK (last year’s remaster of Radiohead’s OK Computer)

Have only listened to the remastered tracks from the original album, not the bonus disc, but damn I forgot how much I love this album. Didn’t notice anything off with the remaster, and it sounded very nice - might have to A/B with my original CD just to see what’s different about it.

FITTER
HAPPIER

You carry a switch-blade? What for? Are you auditioning for West Side Story?

I carry a switchblade. It’s useful, convenient, and pretty versatile. I’ve used it more often than I ever used any Swiss army knife I’ve ever owned, which are always cumbersome, feel fragile, and are rarely sharp enough for the thing I’m trying to use it for.

A thumb-knife with the same inside lock as my switchblade would be a good compromise for me if I were ever forced to give up the switchblade, though. But I can’t stand regular pocket knives with the rear lock, or any “multi-tool”/Swiss army knife I’ve ever used.

Okay, good. Just making sure you weren’t jumping into book 6 of a series without realizing it (especially since it’s the book that’s more of a “bridge” between the one before and the one after than all the others).

I want to see a standalone movie where the imperial officers that survived the events of Return of the Jedi get tried and hung for war crimes.

At the very least, I’d like some kind of Disneyland attraction that revolves around that.

A Star Wars “Judgment at Nuremberg?” I’d be down for that.

I assume you’ve read the first 5 Dark Tower books if Song of Susannah is on your list, yes?

If you say so. Ash

I have also seen. USS Callister and Playtest.

White Bear and Shut Up and Dance are the two best episodes IMO. Ten Million Merits and The Entire History of You are also great.

I need to give the Christmas episode another watch, I don’t remember much about it and it’s frequently listed as one of the best of the series, too.

Too much cache clearing required for that one.

paja said:

I just watched the First episode of Black mirror and…

The National Anthem?

Yeah, keep watching, that episode is kind of an outlier.

More disappointed in what we saw of Glover’s Lando than I thought I’d be, but like Ehrenreich’s Han, I’m doing my best to hold back judgment until I see the finished product.

Anyway, mfm, have you tried the Song of Ice and Fire books?

Also a decent suggestion.

That one can’t be real. No version of Death Proof has ever been close to a PG-13.

Does anyone have any recommendations for an intelligently written yet extremely vulgar book? I really want to read another book filled with wicked violence, repugnant sexual deviancy, and revolting situations but that still tells a fantastic story and has some fascinating message on the human condition.

Chuck Palahniuk’s work (writer of Fight Club) sounds like what you’re looking for. Check out Survivor, *Lullaby", or Diary. I’ve heard good things about Invisible Monsters but never read it.

Another suggestion would be Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho, The Rules of Attraction).

And of course you have one of my favorite books of all time, Anthony Burgess’ A Clockwork Orange.

I don’t care much for Jim Carrey in anything that isn’t The Truman Show.

But…Eternal Sunshine…

Were you able to get a decently clean version of that logo somewhere? I tried a while back but settled for my own crappy cutout attempt.

Hell yeah, thank you so much! Love that logo design.

Argh, you guys are right! The Z’s confused me I guess. Fixed.

There’s tons of awesome aliens in TFA and R1. I like these guys from Maz’s castle.

Wait, are those live-action Zabraks Lasats (like Zeb from Rebels)?

I’ve been listening to a lot of Pink Floyd as of late.

Meddle was the last one I listened to. Probably my favorite too, alongside Wish You Were Here.

Yay, someone else that appreciates Meddle! “Echoes” might be my favorite Floyd song. And “Fearless” is criminally underrated.

I just did for the second time this week.

You guys change your avatars too much.

Can you at least all agree with me that having a dating relationship with Jordan Peterson would be a waste?

This I can agree with, yes.

It’s because you’re giving an absolute worst case scenario (people outright lying about everything about themselves in order to get in the other person’s pants) and presenting that as if it’s a universal truth for every person that ever goes on a date.

The reality isn’t so dark. Highlighting your good qualities while downplaying your bad ones is closer to a universal truth about dating, but that’s not the same thing as what you’re saying. What you’re saying sounds like people go on dates as characters they made up that are nothing at all like them.
