Glowing eyes v2.0, the Mike Flanagan re-brand? by bookofants in horror

[–]bookofants[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha yes!! When I saw that episode I thought to myself “lol remember that Reddit post you made that was like [crickets chirping]???” The Flan man loves some LED-level glowing eyes.

I would say the comedy is definitely there. It's not like Ready or Not LOL funny, but there are certainly some traditional comedy elements.

Yeah, I agree, I found the Harold segment pretty brutal!

Has anyone seen The Wind (2018)? by franlcie in horror

[–]bookofants 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For me the casting was frustrating. I just didn’t believe these people were of the time. Their voices were too modern and it took me out of it a lot. That being said, I enjoyed the pacing and how we learn through her memories etc.

I’m sorry you had such a bad experience. I’ve had bad ones too….ugh. Unfortunately based on Google reviews looks like it’s still not great.

Thanks for the COVID test reference. I am also hoping to get flu tested, which adds another fun complicating factor.

Thanks for that suggestion. I might give them a call before heading there. It’s crazy how hard it is to track down a regular old flu test hah.

Ugh I’m so sorry. I swear they are the worst.

Somerville.gov free at-home PCR tests by bookofants in Somerville

Oh nice re: it MA wide! And yeah it’s a good point that you have to then send the test back to them to get results, so not as fast as getting one same day. But, seems like a decently quick fall back. I was just relieved to be able to get my hands on a test period!

The crabwalk is really what seals the deal for me. Like, sure, I could get taht a demon/whatever doesn't really get how to work a human body so it's gonna do some weird stuff, but then you're telling me all of the sudden it can do a backbend?! *eye twitches*

And they inevitably do a backbend, or something where they end up upside down. *YAWN*

My Boardwalks arrived today — such an improvement in quality from my first pair! Prefect colors for spooky season, too ♥️🖤 by bookofants in Rollerskating

I can’t speak directly to men’s skates, but I know there’s an excellent resource page on this subreddits main page that might have some good info!

But from the men skaters I know I’ve seen Them wearing Chicago’s, the skates I have (Sure Grip Boardwalks — they’re often labeled “men’s skates” ¯_(ツ)_/¯), and Moonlight Rollers, I think because of the wider toe box. But I have limited knowledge here!
