"What did I just watch" thoughts

I was sitting on the can reading an article about critics best 50 (or how many ever it was) horror movies (since it's October and all) and got to thinking. What other movies have I seen and was like, the fuck?

Two that came right up were Bird Box (that piece of garbage from Netflix with Sandra Bullock) and Hereditary. The former then made me think of A Quiet Place. And, of course, as I googled them both to make sure I had the titles correct, I found that they BOTH have sequels coming out! WHY???

What other movies can you think of that just made you go, WTF was that?

"What did I just Watch?" #2

Welcome, everyone, to another episode of "What Did I Just Watch?" (More appropriately, "What the Fuck Did I Just Watch?")

Now, yes, I realize there was no first episode, so I will first address that here:

Episode 1: The Grand Budapest Hotel

Now for Episode 2: In The Tall Grass (a Netflix Film)

Only time will tell what Episode 3 will bring...

Who is this? (Revisited)

Back in 2015, I posted the following:

It's 4.5 years later. WHY IS THIS STILL A THING???

Learn how to use the technology, people!

Things I learned in Mexico

I was in Mexico City a few weeks ago (early June 2016) for several days and learned quite a bit. I thought I should share:


  • They use speed bumps in place of stop signs.
  • Beer costs $1, rum and coke $2.
  • Mushroom soup > chicken soup
  • Cheese quesadillas look like empanadas but are amazing.
  • The Japanese ruined peanuts.
  • They make their own lanes when driving.
  • Mezcal is gross.
  • McDonald's serves onion rings.
  • There are at least ten duty free shops in the airport. (Literally every 50 yards.)

Enjoy!

Ice cream cake

So, today was my boss's birthday. It's been a running thing the last year that we get an ice cream cake from BJs (they're frickin fantastic) and share it amongst the team. Something dawned on me today, though. Last year, I took my birthday off (it was a Friday). Never had any cake for my birthday. (I generally take at least a half day off from work for my birthday, fyi.) But then I realized, if I'm the one with the BJs membership, and I'm the one getting the cakes, who's getting a cake for my birthday?

Who?

Netflix!

There's been a lot of talk recently about the 'secret codes' that Netflix has at the end of the URLs. The short version is that if you change the number at the end of the URL, you'll get a different category. Well, someone went ahead and created a matrix with links:

You're welcome (and thanks to the guy that put the site together [and the people who's data he used]).

Things I hear at the bar

"When I'm wrestling the sheet monster"... (from a thirty+ year old man to his girlfriend (I assume))

Sigh.
