Joe Pesci in the cornfield in Casino but he’s wearing a Mets cap

Mets baseball. Nothin’ like it

It’s funny for a baseball player to be named “Outman”

Yooooooo

That ball went into the goddamn stratosphere, holy shit

From my memory, there was no Chubbles 1. We jumped straight to the sequel. I remember one shot of my brother pointing and shouting “Oh no! It’s Chubbles!” and that was the introduction of the character.

I wish there was a way for me to get the horror movies I made with my brother and our cousins as a kid. One was about a demon-possessed piece of paper. Another was called “Chubbles 2” and mostly consisted of us filming a stuffed animal being burned.

I saw that when I lived in Austin and had a great time! I’d love to revisit it

Real heads know

you're gonna have to give him a moment, son. Michael Jackson has to think about not quite all of his entire life before he plays...

1994‘s Double Dragon is free on YouTube, interesting, interesting.

I just remembered we saw a Tesla with a sticker that said “Anti Elon Tesla Club” out in the wild this weekend. Hey man whatever you gotta do.

This record, like every Sicko record, splits the difference between silly jokey pop punk riffs and more serious and melodic songs. ”Bad Year” the obvious highlight, but I love “Wave Motion Gun“ too. This was my fave Sicko record as a teen!

Competence porn? You mean cinema of process?

Sicko - Laugh While You Can Monkey Boy

Current record

The thing I love about the ”You have all these characters” Charlie Rose moment is that you can see in real-time PTA realizing that there isn’t a question.

Despite (or perhaps because of) being a Lookout Records pop punk kid in the 1990s, I’m a Blink-182 anti. Could never get behind them, and this record is no exception. Voted for the Rilo Kiley record, which is lovely.

Watching The One really makes you appreciate The Matrix

There’s one part that blatantly reuses a stunt from Righting Wrongs and you know what? Still hits!

The One is not great and, as someone who was in high school when it came out, the nu-metal soundtracks hit me like a truck (my wife saw me physically react when “Let The Bodies Hit The Floor” hit) but Mark Borchardt has a cameo and the Corey Yuen fight choreography is fun.

triples is safest

Genuinely the funniest needle drop I’ve ever seen in a movie

The One

Watching #movies

Thank you

I’m going to scream

Who’s ready for another day of New York Metropolitans baseball?

birthday girl Jayne Mansfield

Jayne's hair is wet and slicked back, she has on long rhinestone earrings. She's wearing a halter-style suit that appears to have studs in a star pattern. Her eyes are closed and she's shaking someone's hand. The puppy held in Jayne's left arm is very chill even though it appears to be a dachshund (a breed I love but let's face it, not known for chill).

Jayne Mansfield holds a puppy as she prepares for a poolside photo shoot, 1957. I always look for photos of her with little to no makeup and less "done" hair, because she was so naturally gorgeous. She looks like a kid here. Mansfield was #BornThisDay in 1933.

an easy way to remember:

that’s a movie director you have

He’s an umpire, simple as
