Sean Lee7 said:It’s not like you can even offer him a decent meal if he’s that picky about what he eats. 😁

Come on, just because someone doesn't touch alcohol doesn't mean they have to jump straight to being a vegetarian; surely there is at least a small shred of common decency left in him.😁

Sean Lee7 said:Do you need anything? Anything at all...😁

It’s a bit of a breakdown of one's character when you find yourself unable to simply buy someone a beer. It makes you wonder if you're still holding onto your basic humanity at all, doesn't it?🤔

😁

gentlepuma20 said:Look at him, just some meadow out in the Midwest with sheep in it, acting like he’s suddenly moved to Ireland.😁

You caught me red-handed.😳

Check out those whiskers:

gentlepuma20 said:and... is it green? 😬

Man, yeah, it’s definitely green.

gentlepuma20 said:By the way, have you actually completed your own high-society Tour de France yet?

If it were truly a high-society affair, you wouldn't be stuck booking rooms occupied by German tourists.😁

Ponor said:Man, that movie was a complete letdown, much like the book itself. Though I still have a massive soft spot for Brazil.🙏 😍
I’m not so sure; if anyone actually wants a raw look at what true drug use entails, they should probably stick to reading *The Naked Lunch*. Hunter S. is compared to William S. 😁

It’s not like I need an Émile Zola novel to describe what being high feels like.😁 *Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas* feels like a chaotic circus, whereas *The Naked Lunch* is more like a feverish, dark delirium, yet I found value in both.

It might be time to admit that Gilliam’s work actually holds up better than Cronenberg’s.😛 🙂

Sean Lee7 said:I always thought it meant *corpomorto* or maybe something related to a sea mariner. It sounds like something people from coastal towns would say just to make it sound less nautical. And is *pajet* the same thing as *pajol*?😁

Well, the beauty of the term "corpomorto" lies in the fact that it translates directly to "dead body."😁

As for *pajet*, that refers to the side panel or the gunwale of a boat.

hollowseal33 said:Our family uses similar old-school slang for "grandma," much like how Sandra Chase16 describes it.

My grandmother's top 5 favorite words:
1. sourdough starter

Goodness, those terms...🤣
In my household, we always used the term "Nana."😁

Here are my top 5 nautical terms:

1. hull integrity
2. deckhand
3. mooring ring
4. cabin boy
5. dove

redcrane28 said:I haven't actually sat down to watch the movie yet. I'll probably get to it eventually, though that specific scene is just as vivid in the book as you say.

It’s just as visceral on screen, 😬 if I do say so myself, but I honestly think this might be the finest example of a book being brought to life on film. Aside from maybe *City of God*, it stands out as my absolute favorite adaptation by Terry Gilliam. It feels almost as if he filmed it frame by frame straight from the pages, yet it flows with such a seamless, cohesive, and convincing energy. Everything about it just works perfectly 🙂—it remains every bit as gritty and intense as the original novel, of course.

Carol Jackson45 said:Yup. Just a standard locker.😁

What do you mean by some black locker?🤔 A locker is just a locker, much like how a simple desk is just a desk.😛

What was Marinada playing back when they were at Kset? It was honestly pretty terrible. Does their music actually hold any weight now?

stormywolf39 said:Man, they just popped back into my head too.😁

Kamenko?! Fiery 😲

oceano?

Carol Jackson45 said:Here are five Madonna and Child paintings that I just can't stand (roughly in chronological order):

1. Cimabue
2. Masaccio
3. Fra Filippo Lipi
4. Giovanni Bellini
5. Tizian

Is anyone actually planning on making a remake of Corpse 4? 🤔

😬

stormywolf39 said:What’s wrong with picking your nose? It’s practically an art form in itself!😳 😁

And when you actually manage to pull it off, there’s this profound sense of relief, much like that sudden release you feel during other bodily functions.😬

Ways to use eggs:

1. Scrambled
2. In pancakes
3. With steak and eggs
4. For binding breadcrumbs
5. In mayonnaise

Sean Lee7 said:Does any kind of study guide actually exist for the economics exam? I can't seem to think of one right now.

I honestly have no clue, since I've never actually stepped foot in that department.😳

Sean Lee7 said:A bit of an off-topic detour here. I had this bizarre dream last night where you passed away. My intention wasn't anything malicious; I actually wanted to set up a little memorial service for you, but instead of doing it properly, I found myself standing outside the local community college's business school trying to pour out some kind of commemorative liquid from a flask, thinking you’d appreciate the gesture. As I’m standing there pouring, this guy walks by—just a random passerby—and we strike up a conversation. He tells me he actually knows me from before, claiming we'd met already, but that back then I was completely wasted and had been aggressively forcing him to eat a sandwich. I tried to apologize, but he just shrugged it off, saying it didn't matter because he understood how much people can change once they start drinking. That’s when I woke up.

I’m going to have to issue you a cease and desist order. Who gave you permission to use my likeness in your dreams, let alone in such a ridiculous fashion? 😁

Honestly, setting up a memorial at a business school 😠

Mr. Horus is basically just another persona. He goes by some other name too, but I can't quite wrap my head around him 😳

It's like some ancient Pharaoh figure 🤔

The definitive ranking of Red Guy's alter egos:

1. Rear Admiral Floyd
2. Seymour Butts 🙂
3. Baron Von Neinlederhosen

Carol Jackson45 said:🙂 I would interpret that as having a personal affinity for trash culture. 😵

when you factor in those three wonders, it's a tough 🙂

Carol Jackson45 said:😱 Could he have done three things even worse? 🤣

It would be like, for instance, having a solo album by Marshall Benz.

gentlepuma20 said:3. kushdie (honestly, I'm not even sure if I'm spelling this right)

I think I'd just spell it "kooshty."
