As a Baltimore transplant to suburban DC, it weirded me out that people in this area use “DMV” to refer to the DC, MD, & VA area instead of that part of the eastern shore. So you have people in two states using the same term to describe two different geographic areas. Not confusing at all.

The book it was based on is a gimmicky fun read, too. Each chapter is a month because it started as a calendar but King just kept writing. And the Bernie Wrightson art is incredible.

Also, as @Curt McGirt alluded to, he was “raised” by a massive piece of shit and probably felt he had to always prove himself.

It’s pretty good right now (Friday, 8:30ish am Eastern) but it was too slow to use yesterday.

Don’t Sweat the Thekkla? I just can’t believe I went decades not understanding Licensed to Ill was meant to be tongue in cheek. For fuck’s sake, Rhymin’ & Stealin’ is a track about being a pirate! I chalk it up to the album coming out when I was 12 and not understanding nuance at that point.

Oh you know you’re taking that jpeg to Kinko’s and getting an actual yard sign made!

I was going to make an Andrew Martin joke... Anyway, I couldn't get the board to load at all earlier today. About an hour ago it was working pretty well. Now it's really slow.

This past weekend's beer was Hometown Crew Pilsner from the aforementioned local brewery Loan Oak Farm. It's a Czech style pilsner and I enjoyed it more than their west coast style IPA I had last week. Very flavorful and, as a guy who dislikes wheat beers, it went right up to my line for maltiness, but not over. Really good. Try it if you're in Maryland.

I usually turn off movies after that, too

I had to rewind it because at one point the beige horns looked like super long ears, like he was wearing a Ferengi mask.

Oh man, we played this all the time at the mall across the street from my high school in the early 90s. The arcade and, of course, the mall are gone now, replaced years ago by big box stores.

I thought Brave New World was above average and not a waste of time, but the plot felt a little convoluted and making this a sort of sequel to the first Hulk movie from a decade and a half plus ago and the universally-disliked Eternals was a ballsy swing. Also, knowing Sidewinder was added in reshoots was so distracting because I found myself obsessing over the magic of how the movie was frankensteined together. 3 out of 5 stars, probably. Add another quarter star for trolling bigots, using Ante Up in the soundtrack, and briefly representing Baltimore.

I still remember Drake’s 2012 PWG run. He was off drugs, level headed, loved by his peers for his great attitude, doing amazing work and probably slotted to win their title, and this was in that several year window where they were the most influential indy going. Then he took the WWE job in Florida and spiraled. Was it Florida? Was it the case of an addict swapping drugs for religion and then going too far? Was it just that thing with so many Q, Jan 6, etc types where they just got radicalized by social media? I have no idea but I remember when he was awesome and wish him the best if he’s truly pulling out of that bullshit.

Truth and Carlito! Triple K out here using the Peter Griffin color chart meme to decide who to fire. That's a funny way to say "guy who made one mistake in a promo and an old bigot turned him into a dumb oaf for 'comedy.'"

Wonder Woman and Subway? Holy shit, are you sure you didn't die and go to hell for a few minutes?

Well it’s a serious situation, I didn’t want to go that far. Excuse me, I didn’t know you were a doctor!

Ah, right! I didn’t think of that. Thanks!

Oh man, hang in there and best of luck, bud. Please keep us posted. PS I am physically unable to restrain myself from telling you YOU’RE GONNA BE OKAY!

I use my debit card for everything, but this particular dispensary only takes cash or Jane Pay, whatever that is. PayPal for stoners, I guess. The other dispensary near me takes debit, but treats it like an ATM transaction where you need to put in your PIN, and then they round up to the nearest 10 and give you change. Dispensaries are weird, man.

@Andrew POE! they made a Teen Wolf cartoon series, too. It’s probably on Youtube. The 80s were nuts.

There’s an island where they have no contact with the outside world; some missionary went there and they killed him, and if you try to fly over it they shoot arrows at you. TK needs to float the rumor that they’re doing a residency there.

You don’t like an imploding flip into a cutter while time stands still and the opponent sits and waits for it like a beaten Mortal Kombat opponent waiting for a fatality? It’s like someone saw the dumb setups for the Ozcutter, Lethal Injection, and Cody Cutter and said hold my beer.

At this rate AEW should start floating false booking plans just to fuck with them. “What do you mean AEW is running Collision on an uninhabited island with no infrastructure and it’s going to cost them six billion to do it? Oh well, go ahead and book it for Great Balls of Fire 2: 2Great 2Balls the week before!”

*boop* being the generally accepted sound of an erection popping up always killed me
