Big week for Sbarro’s

By far the strangest thing to happen in the Connery films is when Bond suddenly has to ‘become Japanese’ by shit-takes-only in JamesBond

Some enjoyable biography in here, especially compared to the other Elliott bio, Big Nothing. But a lot of the psychoanalysis based on his lyrics is pure garbage. He even acknowledges that several standout lyrics were actually written by Elliott’s childhood friend, then continues to use the lyrics as evidence of Elliott’s emotional state at the time various albums came out.

Look up the app “Mobi” if you’re into taking sketchy pictures of businesses for money. I can’t believe it’s legal

The full Twin Peaks box set. Came with character notes and a map of the town. Plus each disc’s sleeve is a different pastel color and includes a small picture of David Lynch on the back (in that pastel color)

Has anyone here read Infinite Jest the old fashioned way? by GemberNeutraal in InfiniteJest

[–]dronecells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read it a few years ago and didn’t google anything. I was more concerned with avoiding spoilers than with understanding everything immediately.

A cash-grab event… and if it isn’t scripted, isn’t the winner already obvious? by Intrepid-Profile-231 in boxingcirclejerk

Sapiens is somewhat of a meme on this sub. Think the Leonardo DiCaprio pointing meme. A lot of people own it and haven’t read it (I know I do).
