alnilam posted:vaguely recalling the movie Stay Tuned I'm going to have to watch this, lately I've been obsessed with the idea of Hell portrayed as a late 70s/early 80s gameshow or soap opera, with hazy lighting and that sort of vaseline fog over everything so that shiny things turn into bright little stars, like everything is superficially shiny on the surface which hides the dirt and filth beneath. And all the people, despite whatever subtly terrifying things are happening just barely off-screen or in the background, are dry and mundane and have no personalities beyond focusing on the show, like they're all scripted. When you finally finish the show and step backstage and go through the dressing room door, you find yourself instead walking onto the stage of another gameshow and starting all over again. |

PHIZ KALIFA posted:didn't a goon just buy the set from a 1970s gameshow Do you know the thread URL? Sounds like it would make for some cool pictures and an at least somewhat interesting story. Like how do you come across that? And what do you do with it? The answers are probably "bought it at an auction" and "put it in my garage" but hey who knows?

And pretty much yeah, those are the answers. It was a show I'd never heard of, and the set involved a lot of proprietary electronics.

30 something childless man and woman making pizza together in the kitchen man turns to woman and says "hey did you hear the joke about pizza? nevermind it'sTOO CHEESY" and groans. woman puts a hand on man's back as he looks back at her with sorrowful eyes. later as they're setting the table man is obviously fighting something internally, eventually blurts out uncomfortably loud "oh i can't forget the pickles. they're kind of a BIG DILL" and collapses into a chair with his head between his hands. he says "i'm sorry... i know it's not the right time to have children, it's just... it's just i can... i can feel my biological clock ticking away and.... i want to have children so badly and, and, i'm not sure how many dad jokes i have left in me... i just can't keep them in any longer" and surrenders to body shaking sobs

YOSPOS posts from the world of one hour police procedurals I overclocked my rig for up to three keyboard inputs- more bandwidth than I know what to do with somebody from accounting called in a complaint that her enhancement software is glitched. checked the name- same woman that poured soda on her keyboard last week. I already told her the mobo was totally fried and I had to tank the serifs. politely asked if she remembered to spike the parameters, twenty minutes later finally realized she doesn't know even know how |

Being honest about things you don't need to be honest about 1. If we were marines and you got blown up, I wouldn't go back for your body. 2. When people use "devolve" to mean "degrade" I mentally say "degrade." I don't look down on thme, but I do do it. 3. Given an opportunity, I'd probably eat people if it was ethically sourced. 4. On April 3rd 2014, I told my then girlfriend that I had never had a dish, which I had not only had before but could make better myself. 5. I have never approved of your hats. I will never give up my own hats. 6. I'd say about 1/5 of the time, I'm just humming punk songs in my head. Doesn't matter what occasion. |

Inspired by a thread in TFR The end of the world is upon us, and in the Mad Max wasteland we are all scavengers. The only order remaining is the HOAs populated by busybodies, who continue to enforce petty rules. "Janice was out for an early morning walk with her warhounds and told me that the heads on pikes and spears in our yard violate the bylaws, and that yards need to either have heads on pikes or heads on spears, but cannot mix and match pikes and spears" "The Architecture Committee denied my permit for the new pillboxes, because they say that they are too close together and the flat roof design clashes with the aesthetic of the rest of the compound" "I have to cover militia duty for Rodney, because he's leading a raiding party that day to find hot dogs for the 14th annual summer splash bbq on Saturday" |
