You know, I feel like I shouldn't be saying this given its history, but fuuuuuuuck the Tangerine Dream score for Legend is good. I honestly like it better than the "real" score. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjyM2dS3X1I I really wish Tangerine Dream and Vangelis would do film scores again, one of the best parts of GTA5 was the TD work on the score.

Apart from the money aspect, getting your wisdom teeth out is pretty dope. You get to sit around popping pain pills and eating mashed potatoes for like a week. Highly recommended. I'm probably gonna need adult-rear end braces at some point though and I'm not looking forward to financing that poo poo.

I distinctly remember my oral surgeon talking about how he went to juvie just after he turned the gas on. I've always wondered whether that was a hallucination or not.

Criminal Minded posted:This was my reaction as well. It was hilarious in retrospect. Thankfully my girlfriend was a really good sport about it because apparently I was like "These painkillers aren't kicking in fast enough, this is bullshit! I can't eat ramen for a couple days? That's bullshit!" etc. But then like an hour later I was watching Godzilla movies and giggling. As a Swans fan you might appreciate that I listened to Filth for the first time while really loopy on painkillers and basically had an out-of-body experience.

Slice if life: I have two more shifts left at the shop after tonight and it is disturbing how little if a gently caress I give right now. Like negative amounts of fucks. Other people are giving me fucks to compensate. It's great. I'm not doing poo poo. I'm tempted to close up and go buy a burger on the complete opposite end of the mall.

You can get the entire series of the Wire on DVD pretty cheap. I did that and watched basically 2-3 episodes per evening for a few weeks. Didn't get a lot of sleep but TV beats sleep.

It is indeed on Amazon, as you say, Prime. So is Barb Wire, Bird on a Wire and Live Wire.

I currently have season 2 of The Wire out from the library. Second time, and a different copy, because the middle disc of the last one was scratched enough to make 2 episodes unplayable. That sucked. Also from the library and which I spent most of this morning reading after checking it out yesterday, Linda Ellerbee's memoir "And So it Goes": Adventures in Television. I forget where on this forum I heard about it – might have been the Slimed!/Nickelodeon thread, along with the stories of her engaging with some chucklefucks on some Internet forum – but it's good poo poo. effectual posted:Had a crazy dream last night. It was like Goodfellas 2 or something. Some of the old mobsters were at war because their territory was shrinking from asian and latin gangs. Then the last few alive finally made peace, and for some reason there was a british gang as well, whose top 2 guys were Bowie and Brosnan. Weird. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0150488/

Coffee And Pie posted:Slice of life: after my first trip to the dentist in years, I've learned I need two wisdom teeth removed, multiple root canals, and a few cavities too. After having a couple fillings put in today, my dentist asked me to come back next week to touch up my two older fillings. "Oh, well those shouldn't be too bad, right?" "No," she said. "We pretty much have to take them out and completely redo them." gently caress.

I wanna clown on myself for it really, because "dramatic television serial" includes Scenes From a Marriage and poo poo. I just really, really liked True Detective. I'll settle for "best cop show," but even that is gonna get penismightier on my rear end.

Man True Detective would have been so much better if it turned out to be a secret occult Lovecraftian thing. So disappointing.
