Small Talk: Ughngnggh! Ugghhnnn!
nachomama replied to radishcake's topic in The Walking Dead Franchise Shows
I think it's an improvement on those major things. Battles, choreography etc. I think the practical location filming (Tunisia??) works better than the weird green screen of old. It now looks like it could be real, sand worms included. I was not disappointed...but I know nothing, dunno what's gonna happen. Dude is wanting to get a banner made with a Braves tomahawk as a fundraising scale. Like how you see United way things that they color in as they raise the money. He keeps saying "tommy hawk" which just makes me want to laugh so hard. Like how my dad used to say "motorcycle" as "motorsickle" like popsicle. -

You do have to gear up for the 159 and consider that it's Part 1, so they barely scratched the surface. I can't say I hated it but I went in knowing nothing and comparing to nothing except the silly cgi I remember from my childhood. I will say it's much better than that! :D -

Getting my booster today. Watched Dune last night. I was very averse to the original Dune, so, very apprehensive. I don't think I ever watched the entire thing back in the day, I don't love David Lynch, don't love Kyle McLaughlin. I thought it was super cheesy and maybe it was the CGI of the day...ionno. My mom had a tendency to watch some weird stuff and I remember her watching Dune and Blue Velvet and being utterly confused. (her and I, separate reasons I'm sure) My sister remembers my mom liking scary stuff, forcing her to watch Hitchcock movies, maybe too young? I remember watching them...but not being forced and maybe the difference between the 2 of us was by the time I watched "Psycho" or "the Birds" they just weren't scary to me? Again, black and white Psycho didn't carry the same effect...? I remember my mom saying "In Cold Blood" original version with Hershel!! was the absolute scariest thing she had ever seen. I think though, that in her day, people breaking into houses and killing entire families was unheard of. Maybe "In Cold Blood" was an early "true crime" phenomenon? Either way, didn't scare me. My sister used to go on and on about how traumatized she was by that stuff. I remember watching "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" and thinking it was hilarious. I might have been just a teensy bit warped in the head. -

I have a high blood pressure pill and Jardiance. I think I have acid reflux or gerd or whatever you call it but I just take an otc daily heartburn thing, I'm not on any prescription for that. I take potassium and probably should take iron. I try to eat lots of vegebulls. I do love green veg so no problem there. Trying to not eat potatoes. -

I'm officially a geezer. I'm taking fiber, I'm seeking probiotics. I don't have a daily organizer YET for my vitamins and supplements. geez. Been watching "Sex Education" on netflix. (Not because I need educating mind you, ahem) and I guess I'm my parents. My dad made us shut off "The Breakfast Club" because of the language. I'm not shocked by anything thus far I just don't really believe that many kids have that many problems. I'm just feeling old -

I've heard of Guy Fawkes, even watched the movie with Kit Harrington where they explained the whole deal. I guess because my mom grew up in Iowa and it was cold by Halloween my mother was obsessed with wigs or hats for costumes. I think to keep our heads warm but ultimately it meant we always had itchy, sweaty heads. -

I've always heard the British people don't do halloween like we do halloween. Although less Halloweeny lately and not just because of pandemic. People trunk or treat more now or go to the Mall. Even though I live in a neighborhood where kids could go door to door we really don't get the traffic. My home town used to do "black cat jamboree" at the elementary school and they've quit doing it in the last 5 years. It was lame but still something to do. Every classroom had it's own theme, from cake walks to spooky stuff. One class showed 5 minute frankenstein or dracula movies from the 30's and 40's. Bingo in the cafeteria. You bought tickets and each thing was 1 or 2 tickets. You trick or treated between classes and had all kinds of prizes for each thing. -

The dinosaur sitting on her dad's shoulders is Sora and that child beat on me endlessly. She would take runnning leaps and just sit on my head or wherever she landed. She climbed me and grabbed my boobs. She was forever going up my shirt because "my milk was warm" so I'm very traumatized. Apparently I'm a fun jungle gym. Her dad is a Star Wars nerd so he was geeked about seeing the yoda and darth vader and there was a darth walking around and some storm troopers. There were also some "Covid" heads doing some kind of weird dance. It was a 4 mile walk to the car...uphill so you know I'm dead. I'm so sore. -

I can't figure out how to post a video (too big). Here's some rando balloon fiesta photos. The day we went the mass assencion didn't take place, they blew them up but they didn't lift off which was a bummer but I have an awesome video of everybody firing up their flames. Not sure why but it felt kinda "game of thrones" to me, like it was torches or something. The blue angels flew overhead also, super cool. I'm currently deceased, I'm completely broken and tired. I drove home through those tornadoes in Oklahoma, they were chasing me. The radio kept talking about the counties affected and I'm screaming "I don't know counties, I'm not from Oklahoma, gimme a mile marker or a town" eventually i was at mile marker 213 and they said from 213 -253 so I pulled over to wait for god to strike me down. I didn't die. nothing went as planned, didn't get to see niece and nephew, baby never came back from Michigan. I put 4,400 miles on my car. I'm so friggin tired -

I had to get a powerball ticket. $620 million sheesh. I used birthdays. Mom, oldest sister, niece, mine. I wanted to use Marcy's birthday but can't since it's also evil sisters birthday. My sister, friend Marcy and 2 cousins were all born October 9 in consecutive years. -

I was told I need to pay more attention. Now what I did was usable, wasn't wasted paper, per se. Last week my boss printed an entire football program with the wrong opponent. 250 thrown away. Mine didn't get thrown away, could still use it. But I'm the only one not paying attention eyeroll -

We've had 2 solid days of rain, I shouldn't complain, I know what Ida did all up the coast but great googly moogly we are soggy and I'm so tired of this rain. I'm in big trouble when my boss gets here. I was waiting on some paper for a project I do every month. So when paper man got here I wheeled my paper into my office and started cranking out my stuff. I know I looked at what I grabbed because I grabbed 2 things...well I didn't look hard enough. I guess once I saw the first one I knew this was "mine" and well, it wasn't. Holy crap I ran 400 sheets of the wrong paper and the bad part is that obviously I done stole from my boss what he needed. What it means is they did NOT ship us mine which still screws us because I still don't have what I need. And these douche nuggets do this every month, they want 900 of this damn thing and they send it to me on the end of the day Thursday. No matter how many times I've tried to tell them that if they send it thursday it means I can't start on it until Monday because we order the paper when we get the job and they don't deliver friday which means I don't get til monday. (except in this case I didn't even get it monday) and her "stipulations" are thus...5 days turnaround BUSINESS DAYS DON'T COUNT. So she thinks elves work on Saturday and Sunday. Again if you send it to me on thursday...automatically business days kick in, that's 3 days that are useless to me. So then I am working on this maniacally to get it done on time. 2 years ago my sister died in September and we missed by a day. October the very next month is when my boss' father died, we missed by a day. The lady reamed us and my boss is not the kind of guy to say "well we had 2 deaths back to back to it's a miracle you got it at all". She will not get 5 ("I don't mean business days, I mean 5 days total!") day turnaround on her horseshit job. anyway I'm in big trouble ooooops -

I did that with a bathroom light fixture, pulled it down to change bulbs and something rusted so I can't unscrew just the shade part and like you I can't shove it back up so it's literally been dangling for years. It's more of a balance, stand on a stool and get the 5 inch screw thingy to line up which I cannot do without getting vertigo. That's why I choose not to clean things :D -

We had a 45 minute to an hour bus ride so we had many bus adventures. One time a purple truck in front of us blew a tire and flipped over into a ditch. Dude had a tricked out old, old pickup and poof it went rolling through a field and apparently he'd just gotten paid, cash money just went flying. He was not hurt and the bus driver stopped and all the kids bounced out and went chasing the money. He may or may not have gotten most of it back. Only the big kids mind you. We gave him a ride to our little community. there was literally nothing for 20 miles either way so he woulda been walking, no cell phones no pay phones. I'm assuming way out in the sticks the bus driver knew who he was, or of him, it was probably somebody's son that lived out there with us. -

We had a very funky bus stop, it was shaped like an old timey LHotP school house, painted red and white. We liked to play in it. I got in a fight with Brandon Uhde, he knocked over my very sad pathetic snowman so I had to whoop him. Then one day on a snow day, we either came home early because of snow or were sent home from the bus stop because the bus wasn't going to come. This little neighbor girl goes running off towards home and all of a sudden she just disappeared. She sank in the snow into a ditch that we all forgot was there because it was all filled with snow and level with everything else. She wasn't hurt it was very soft landing but shooop she just got swallowed up by the snow. -

Didn't they do away with daylight savings? I thought I had set my clock forward or back for the last time. I notice it getting darker earlier and being dark when I get up now. Hasn't really turned "fall" here still blazin hot. 2 weeks ish to my trip. Don't think prison is open for visitors because of covid so we are gonna try to hook up a video visit for the grandkids. Yes, my niece who is 45 has grandchildren...a 10 year old one in fact. The 10 year old recently googled how to emancipate himself. sigh. We think it's more about he wants to emancipate from his mom (drug addict) and be legally adopted by the people who have essentially raised him his whole life. I know in a custody situation they maybe ask your opinion on whether you wanna live with mom or dad at about 12 ish. Not that legally it stands up. But maybe at 12 he can make a request, who knows. Otherwise, I'm heckin excited about my trip. Dont give 2 flying fucks what I do...I just won't be here and I'll get fry bread and green chile dip. Yeehaw! -

I had not watched The Godfather’s in their entirety until a few years ago. For some reason they now run them on thanksgiving as a marathon. I did watch 1 & 2 back to back and can appreciate them. 2 is better. But lord have mercy the trains left the track with 3. -

I don’t think I’ve ever watched an entire James Bond film. Definitely never in a theater but I don’t even think on tv at home. They’ve been on but start to finish I don’t think so. -

Would you see it in IMAX? Were any of the olden ones IMAX? Most of the fancy fights are lost on me, I can't clock those punches and kicks etc. We saw the chang Shi movie and it just goes too fast. I can't tell good guys from bad guys except for maybe 2. I can still yell WHEEE but I missed most of it -

I never did know what was going on but I concur. I bought some refridgerated pickles from Aldi and I feel like Scarlet O'Hara "as dog is my witness I shall never eat a limp pickle again!"
