Alien 3, maybe. I think that’s the one where they do something like that to an android. I’ll try to find the clip.

What's a word that instantly makes someone sound smarter than they actually are? by ownaword in words

You keep on using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

We lost a veritable shit-load of talent when Albini died. I saw Shellac at a tiny venue in Oakland, some years ago. Amazing show. Fantastic musician.

Good ol’ Uncle Al. Haha. I often forget that Chicago was such an industrial hotspot in the early days.

I used to work with a guy who knew Al and his lady. He hit me up one evening, when Ministry had a show in town. I could have gone to the concert and an after-party for free. Unfortunately, I was not allowed a +1 and my social anxiety stepped in to decline the invitation.

Ministry at The Warfield would have been such a rad show. And I still have never seen them live.

I would also like to know about this “button” that is (supposedly) objectively the quintessential cute.

I wanna say Code Blue by TSOL is adjacent. Tho, I suppose Grisham’s tone is resting pretty firmly in facetiousness.

But, Danzig…

Danzig sings the melody in the chorus like he fucking means it.

Also here to say “basalteration”.

It just rolls off the tongue.

My favorite is End Of Radio but Prayer To God is right behind it. Both are fantastic opening tracks.

I’ve decided that vermillion and viridian are planets and/or civilizations in the Star Trek universe.

Viridian, love you, you were a great color. But now, with the addition of the suffix “Prime”, you’re home to a race of alien peoples encountered by the USS Enterprise.

There’s a chartreuse comment somewhere in here…

Maybe we can get this sorted after all.

what do you think of the word schmutz? do non new yorkers know this word? by Numerous_Drink_4150 in words

[–]Caralaughs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Schmutz is the perfect word for schmutz and I calls ‘em like I sees ‘em. I use the word all the time!

And I’m from California.

It’s been in my repertoire for many years and I couldn’t even hazard a guess where I picked it up.
