  • Guess it depends on what kind of vibe I’m looking for. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is high up on the list. It’s funny and it’s got that noir detective vibe, but a bit more modernized. Considering the movie was released in the early 2000s, I guess it isn’t that modern. Speaking of another movie that isn’t that modern, twelve angry men. I don’t care how often this thing is posted on lists. It’s posted on lists, because it is good. And to follow up something else that is not posted on lists, but is also good. The man from Earth. Do not confuse it with its sequel. The sequel is dog shit. But the man from Earth might be one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. One set films are probably my favorite movies, because it relies heavily on acting and dialogue, not just visuals and special effects. That being said, I do love visuals and special effects, which is why Star Trek First Contact is also high up on that list. But the last movie I’ll reference is also a one set film. The sunset limited. It is a movie directed by Tommy Lee Jones, starring Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson. Tommy Lee Jones’s character tries to kill himself by jumping in front of a train called the sunset limited. Samuel Jones saves him and brings him back to his apartment to try and talk him out of suicide. The entire movie takes place in this very, very, very small apartment. And is exceptional considering it is two powerhouses of acting, acting opposite one another with an amazing script




  • Internet speeds are kind of irrelevant to me. I can download and install Helldivers 2 in the space of 15 minutes. So speed is irrelevant. Space, also kind of irrelevant but not nearly as much. Most of my space is dominated by memes, I wonder why. However, nonetheless, 20 gigs. It pisses me off when I see anything that goes above 50 or 70, and I don’t know if that’s just from playing on console for years or what, but it drives me absolutely fucking insane.


  • I don’t mean to sound ridiculous or facetious here, but honestly, absolutely nothing. Absolutely nothing. I have nothing to be hopeful about anymore. My best friend had been screwing me over for months. My family hates me because I’m gay. I hate myself for a thousand different reasons. Like, I don’t really have anything to be hopeful about anymore. I’m just waiting to die.


  • Yes although no one actually cared about me just what entertainment I provided. I was the only openly gay dude for miles. People pretended to actually like me but they just liked being able to say they had a gay friend or liked the novelty of me or whatever. Not a single person knew anything about me other than the fact that I was gay. I’ve met some of them since and they didn’t even recognize me. Like clear recollections of everyone else but then “Who are you?”

    Lesson learned real young that people don’t often care about you. Just what you can provide. Once that’s used up…

    And when I say popular I do mean it. I don’t want to sound arrogant but I got constant invites and offers, especially from deeply closeted sports dudes. And it wasn’t just with classmates. Teachers often liked me because I also paid attention and was a bit of a nerd and able to riff without going overboard. What a shocker that I ended up doing stand up
