    (Note: This post contains affiliate links to items that you can purchase from Amazon. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. Thank you.) Trying to explain Zardoz after watching it was like an endless cycle of this guy. That said, I REALLY, legitimately enjoyed it! I always thought…

    I’ve got something to admit that I’m a little embarrassed about. I had never seen Die Hard before a year or so ago, and without having seen it, I was ready to die hard on the hill that it was absolutely not a Christmas movie! Then I watched it, and…

    Yesterday we got our tree all set up with lights on it (no ornaments yet). When I came downstairs later and saw it out of the corner of my eye all lit up, I instantly got the strongest whiff of pine (which I have recently discovered I’m allergic to, sadly).…

    Boyfriend and I were watching Jurassic Park: The Lost World. “I’m counting the things in this movie that no longer exist,” he said. “Pontiac, Blockbuster….” “Dinosaurs,” I said. He chuckled. “Dinosaurs. Dinosaurs definitely aren’t around anymore.” As the tyrannosaur rampaged through downtown San Diego, I suddenly gasped and flung my…

    ChatGPT Portraits

    •

    I saw this meme this morning saying to ask ChatGPT to create a portrait of what it thinks you look like based on the conversations you’ve had so far. I have two accounts, so I got one from each. Please share yours in the comments so we can all have…

    We were chatting earlier about how many words we think our dog knows, so while she and the boyfriend were out on a W-A-L-K, I started making a list of all the ones I could think of. When they returned, I told him about the list and said, “I was…

    TIL that Taylor’s got “a long list of ex-lovers” and not “a lot of Starbucks lovers”. I was just never curious enough until right now to Google what a “Starbucks lover” was. IDK…I guess I thought she was meeting a lot of one-night stands in the Starbucks line…? Or that…

    ***Saturday night*** Boyfriend: “What do you feel like watching?” Me: “Something Stephen King, I think.” ***Sunday morning*** Boyfriend, halfway through a movie: “I’m watching a Stephen King movie!” Me, indignant: “WHAT!? Why would you watch that without me!?” Boyfriend: “You wouldn’t like it.” Me: “Why wouldn’t I like it?” Boyfriend:…

    Never Say Never Again, while entertaining, was suuuch a confusing–but cleverly titled–addition to the Bond films. Though I believe I enjoyed it more than Thunderball, which I fell asleep through and barely remember watching. To be fair to Thunderball, I seem to be interchanging bits of all the Bond films…

    I have no idea why I’m still awake. Last night I dreamt I found the largest-ever skeleton of a coelacanth and won a Guinness record for it. It seems worth noting that while my subconscious did not remember what exactly a coelacanth was (it pictured something more stingray-shaped), it still…
