Good point.

Honestly I don’t want anything remade. It was made, and it was good enough. Time to move on. It reminds me of an interview with Danny Elfman, some young guy was trying to be flattering by asking “do you plan on releasing a remaster of that album?” In his head he was asking “are you gonna cash in on your lasting popularity?” But instead the temperature in the room dropped ten degrees in an instant and Elfman responded, “what wrong with the master?” Wish I could remember what interview that was.

Fan or not, you can see his point, though. Any remake immediately puts the original on trial, and must be able to make the case for itself. We don’t need generational remakes of every mythos with any cultural efficacy, any more than a good album needs a remaster.

I guess I missed out on this one, they don’t mind so much if you’re actually funny.

He can’t even articulate a point. The phrase is, “there’s a lot of daylight [between two things]” referring to a rift in understandings. You don’t just say “there’s a lot of daylight”, that just means it’s daytime.

Why haven’t we suspended them years ago?

Edit: I guess every sensible country (and a few senseless ones) already have

Classy as hell. Love the pipes.

That’s the real truth. Run like hell when luckless chumps show up looking all enthusiastic

Being a powerful man in a fascist system and oppressing women, soo brave

Awoken at 4 will do that. I’m beyond coffee.

Sometimes I prefer a malaphor though (or possibly it’s malaprop when it’s a simile?)

That’s a high-voltage simile right there, goddamn

Edit: and yes, on my high end custom rig it goes like greased shit through a… Lightning… Pig?

I’ve lost one. We were best friends for like twenty years. He wasn’t even dumb really, just super insecure, kind of gullible, and loved controversy and being contrary for its own sake. You know the type. He used to go for hard left Marxist stuff, I think probably just because it was seen as outré at the time. He later voted for Trump.

He couldn’t get a date, hated himself, felt unattractive, went on 4chan too much. Got sucked in, we tried really hard to talk him out of it. Even tried getting his dad involved. Nothing worked.

One day out of the blue he told me my baby was at a higher risk of suicide because of being mixed race. I couldn’t tolerate it anymore, even for the two decades we had together. It’s like the guy I knew is gone.

Like, young at heart or young enough to trust a fart?

I have that instance blocked, so I guess we’re experiencing very different versions of Lemmy.

That was so unexpected that I misread it and made a joke about gen x. We seem that young to you?

An upper age limit is also a great idea in case they figure out those anti-aging drugs. You wanna be a fucking cryptid, fine but you can’t be in charge anymore

It’s great, same amount of time for me. I work from home, walk my kid to school, and with no car costs to pay I make enough to actually support my small family. It’s bliss.

It’s true. And that’s as it should be.

Can’t see the Obvious Plant logo… Scared

The penguins will gain access to pickles, and the powers of Brett Farrrvurrr.

This is a really good explanation. I should tell my kid this to help him with masking. And it’ll be great when he tells the teacher he’s hungover.
