As much as I despise colorized movies, I have had to set aside my disgust with Turner over this, because in creating those celluloid abortions, he also, in every fucking case, searched out the best original elements of those films, and struck new gorgeous prints in B&W from them, which has made sure that many of our greatest films didn't get lost forever due to studio neglect.
Way back in the day, National Lampoon published an issue called 'Crime'. The cover was a close-up of a mattress tag with a black-gloved hand reaching for it. Thanks for the memory,
Mattress stores absolutely must be fronts or otherwise connected to money laundering. There was one major intersection in Tucson that had a Mattress Firm on 3 of the 4 corners. There were probably another dozen Mattress Firm locations within 5 miles. I could never come up with a reasonable economic reason to have so many stores selling something I buy less than once every 10 years.
I’m at my favorite Japanese restaurant for lunch, and I spotted a muscle-headed knuckle-dragger sporting a Three Percenter tattoo. It’s always disconcerting to see someone publicly declaring their allegiance to a fascist terrorist group.
Of course, this proud sion of the white American master race was not only is defiling his pure, patriotic guts with filthy foreign food, but had a Latina spouse with mixed-race kids. I’m surprised he hasn’t turned them over to DHS.
We ALL love Repo Man. Maybe Harry Dean Stanton's best role; then again he was amazing in Big Love. Of course, one is a movie and the other a TV series, so two best roles.
I will admit that they spend two small paragraphs talking about instances of the "violent" memes they're decrying coming from the White House and it's allies, but says nothing about the entire MAGA right wing engaging in nonstop insults and, yes, threats. This is like picking one seashell out of millions of seashells on the beach ( and, yes, they do talk about the attack on Comey for his "86 47" post ). I suppose at one point, they try to talk to people who feel their posts are only the same they get from the right, but it's a half-hearted attempt on the paper's part. The whole "story" is a hit piece on people that Bezos and the right don't like ( which, to be honest, is anyone who doesn't slavishly parrot their propaganda )

Ugh I think that judge’s decision sucked. Who goes to court over a slice of pizza? I would have charged him court costs for wasting time.

I remember that intersection!
They're trying to pull the wool over our eyes! I won't take that lying down.

OK, I can happily report that breakfast was served a little before noon. So sure, call it brunch. Whatever.
And now I know a new dance!
"Yay, crime!" Is also the team motto for Maladministration 2.0.
Oh great...Wompner
Now I want a thick slice of chicken pizza from the window...
And none of that thin shit!
Judgement for the plaintiff!

He's probably not done torturing them yet
Judge Wapner was a cantankerous fuck.
"For Research Only"
That's OK, I want to more closely examine those dancing girls!
That lurch video reminded me of Paranomia
Pretty sure I've seen Wookie before. I remember not commenting that looks more like an Ewok!
'Tear The Tags Off Mattresses'
Pffttt! Ya call that crime?
I get sushi and don't pay for it!

Robyn, be careful with your fringe. The LAST thing you want to do is reignite the late 1980's crunchy bangs trend.
And THANK YOU for a dancing Lurch!
