Aren’t most practictioners of “Steampunk” cargo-cultists that don’t understand steam et alia? A pity, because the origin of the aesthetic is so awesome, n’est ce pas?
@nixiebunny - do you know how to ask questions?
I know nothing. Nothing!
Maybe you should edit that to a question? Didn’t you know there are rules for this thread?
Didn’t he answer the question honestly?
Are you sure?
Dammit, wasn’t I thisclose to being able to pass along one of my many Donalds and you beat me to it?

Can we truly know?
Why did I read this in Shatner’s voice?
Is that a thing I would know?
Are you doing that deliberately?
How are you doing that?
?
I think I just had some kind of Shatner-attack where everything I read was punctuated in Shatner’s cadence for a couple of minutes… is the mighty power of Shatner so overwhelming that it can transcend normal bounds of of literary functionality?
Didn’t this make perusing the ‘Actual conversations with rude or odd customers at a used book store’ source strangely enjoyable?
Is that any kind of excuse?

Even if I haven’t seen all the movies on your not-seen list, may I suggest that you bother with Reservoir Dogs, A Clockwork Orange and The Deer Hunter? I’ve seen the bulk of the movies on your list, but not every last one, so just like, my unsolicited opinion, eh?
There’s a House/Holmes connection?
Houses?
