Anyone else got a crappy cold today? Anyone else going to have to go into work tomorrow too?
edited for haikuity?
No, but since I had that cold yesterday and am at work today, does it count?
Anyone notice that watching 2001: A Space Odyssey on blu-ray makes the ape costumes at the beginning look even more costume-y?
Theyâre costumes?
On the subject of films, has anyone seen The Babadook?
Yes, and before I ruin it with spoilerific questions, have you?
May I raise my hand to that? Wasnât it a little overrated?
No, should I?
Spoilers are not fun
Can you please keep your dirty
Piehole the feck shut?
Didnât I watch it a couple of days ago after being assured it was really scary?
Didnât I really like the first half, then think the writers got unsure about where they wanted it to go?
Only when I chew,
on me fecking lovely pie,
Just the way Iâs raisedâŚ

To watch tonight?
All is Lost, Local Hero, or The Man Who Fell to Earth?
Hmm, nice selectionâŚ
âŚAll is lost had virtually no dialogue but is very cool, Rob Redford looks distraught, quite a riveting ride of a film. I likedâŚ
âŚLocal Hero is a family favourite, me paw regularly visits the filming locations, I believe the red telephone box is still there. Engaging, charming storyâŚ
âŚThe man who fell to earth⌠itâs fairly heavy, the plot jumps about a bit but if youâve got any ketamine or LSD I would recommend spiking your cuppa tea beforehand to get the best experienceâŚ
And isnât that the end of miasmâs quick-capsule-reviews?
assuming you havenât seen them?
Iâd go All is Lost and turn off the lights and get a nice mug of cocoa and hide under a blanket⌠?
Isnât time for the regular patching party this weekend? Arenât I hoping to get the checkouts done by noon tomorrow so I can head north and just hang out while the kid and spouse watch Vancouver vs. Edmonton preseason fun? Am I hoping for a good movie on Svengoolie if the hotel has MeTV?
Anyone else decide that 3:00 on a Friday is a perfectly fine time for a beer?
âŚare you watching me? Donât I have to try it to make sure its still good??
Ever get an email early in the morning that just throws your whole day off? Sometimes doesnât one have to say that things will just get done when they will, and roll with it?
Anyone need anything from London?
