All that cheek-kissing and French-speaking in a Czech film?

Wow, an actual selfie stick. Not a stick that “if you squint at it and ignore the context in which it’s being used, kind of seems like a selfie stick.” If anyone had a patent on selfie sticks, that would be prior art kind of selfie stick. I’ve seen a few claims about supposed selfie sticks in art before, but it turned out they were what we call “sticks.”

My ears must be trickin me.

I have a terrible feeling an appearance in that film at that time was then considered a career-ender.

They say the next big thing is here,
That the revolution’s near,
But to me it seems quite clear:
That it’s all just a little bit of history repeating.
