I have a theory that Wildwood is going to become the next Everything Everywhere All at Once. As in, every discussion of it will instantly be filled with annoying jackasses yelling about how it “was ACTUALLY terrible”. It always happens.

If I hear one more moron talking about “the Mandela effect”, I’m gonna lose my mind. It’s so fucking stupid, why did it ever become so popular?

I don’t understand the hype over this Tesla Roadster. Not only is it giving publicity to Tesla (gross) but there’s really nothing new about it is there? They just strapped some rocket boosters to a truck. There are NO use cases for this. It doesn’t even fly, it just hovers and falls “with style”.

And the fucked up thing is that this obvious publicity stunt WORKED. I’m talking about it, aren’t I? It’s such a ridiculous attempt to get people to talk about Tesla WITHOUT talking about Elon Musk, and to get them to forget that flying cars are stupid and public transit is underfunded everywhere.

Hey animations fans, instead of being doom and gloom over "where are THE people who want original films?", lets pull a Coyote Acme and hype people up to make the premiere weekend of Wildwood also a double feature with Forgotten Island?

DID YOU KNOW? If you press [SHIFT] and [CTRL] at the same time, you can perform a CROUCH-JUMP™, which will allow you to jump higher!

Have you guys ever seen The Flatiron? It’s a picture of the Flatiron Building in New York City just a few years after it was built. It’s such a vibe.

I am very scared that the rerelease of The Transformers: The Movie will bring about a bunch of annoying complaints about Hot Rod for “killing Optimus Prime”.

in rabbit fire there's a scene where mel blanc does daffy imitating bugs and bugs imitating daffy and it feels like witnessing one of the miracles of christ

Do you understand how weird it is to read references to very currently-in-the-news-regularly politicians in stories from before everyone had to hear their names constantly? I think it’s become the only way I know there was a time before.

YOU DON'T "CONSUME" ART MOTHERFUCKER. YOU EXPERIENCE IT. YOU FEEL IT. YOU ENGAGE WITH IT. YOU WRESTLE WITH IT. YOU LIVE IT. ART ISN'T A LITTLE MORSEL YOU GOBBLE UP.

I shouldn’t need to say this, but it seems I have to. If your instinct upon hearing about somebody’s death is to use Generative AI for a so-called “tribute”, you are a fucking disgrace. You are not paying tribute, you are not paying respect, you are exploiting their death for a shitty algorithm.
