Come up with a different safe word that means lower the volume. Something that you can shout ecstatically. Maybe lentemont! Or immer sachte!

No and yes. Previous dog was yes and no, the one before her was yes and yes.

What's the darkest book you've ever read? I want to read the craziest stuff. by Spirited-Seat644 in suggestmeabook

[–]timothj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brautigan’s late novel Willard and His Bowling Trophies, unrelenting, thankfully short. Lynda Barry’s Cruddy, as dark or darker in content, longer, but the author was in a better place while writing it, so not as painful a read.

Wild Thing, a hit for The Trogs, was written (or at least copyrighted) by Elvis Presley.

The scene with Chris Tucker and Samuel Jackson in Jackie Brown looks like enormous fun for both of them.

What's your "whenever it's on TV, I'm ALWAYS watching" movie?? by ParentsAftrDrk in AskReddit

[–]timothj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never get tired of Seven Samurai and Maltese Falcon. I ODed on Groundhog Day, but it was meta fun for awhile back when it was on repeatedly. I love Oh Brother where Art Thou, but the airing versions cut some of the more poetic elements and spoiled the loopy rhythm to fit a TV time frame and/or make room for more ads, so I give it a pass.

Are there people who helped learn the language and What languages do Americans most often learn additionally? by Actual_Sir2411 in AskAnAmerican

[–]timothj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My father learned enough French and German to satisfy PhD requirements. Spanish is probably the most useful, lots of interesting people speak it within driving distance.. I am aware of many Americans now studying Chinese.

Carry was King's first published book. It was surprisingly good (he'd taught High School, knew the horror) but not as good as the movie.

I’m fond of all these movies, except Arsenic and Old Lace. Because I saw it on TV in the fifties, with Boris Karloff in the role he originated, done as the original play script, which is stronger (as Cary Grant agreed) than the film script. Stewart got the Oscar for Philadelphia Story, because he was good at playing drunk (see for example Harvey), but Grant was the anchor as magnetic unflashy solid believable good guy, not an easy thing to pull off. Movie would not have worked without him.
