Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Family Christmas are the only things I’ll still require my kids to watch with us every year. They’re just the best.

Watch out for the icy patch!
I don’t even recall seeing it as a kid in the 80s, but I found it once I had kids and it’s absolutely our favorite to watch as a family. In fact, now that the kids are teenagers, this is probably the only one that will draw them out of their rooms to watch together still.
Right. I never pull the wrong one anymore because fan=fan and light=light. I know it’s a stupid minor thing, but it’s great.
One of my favorite purchases in terms of usefulness, cost, and fun (relative) was these frigging ceiling fan pull chains. I saw them on some “things you didn’t know you needed” list or something. But for less than $10, they have made my life infinitely easier and they do give me a little joy every time I pull on them.
I was going to reply to OP with “They aren’t cockroaches, they’re palmetto bugs.”
Like, I absolutely get that these things exist and will be a part of life in Florida. But when we’re staying in your fancy hotel and complain about the bugs scurrying away from the light in the bathroom, you have to do a little better than argue semantics with me.
I go about 50/50 these days.
Browsing a bookstore will always beat out a website. Favorite books or authors will always get a physical purchase. Used books are cheap and awesome. And sometimes lengthy books are easier for me to get through if they’re physical.
But I love the convenience of my Kindle. I have a ton of books and can add to that collection any time I want. I can adjust text size, font, etc. Dictionary lookup. Syncs progress with the phone app so I can literally pick up and read anywhere.
Working okay here. It might be a Lemmy thing though rather than 2ith Eternity. If you click the same from the website, does it show what you expect?
It actually WAS Community for me. I tried it a few years back and it just didn’t click. I think because Joel and Pierce especially are such shitty people. Tried it again last year and loved it.
Same thing happened with The Orville. I didn’t even make it through the first episode the first time I tried it. Loved it the next time.
Sometimes it’s all about the timing in our lives or the experiences we’ve had.
While I would gladly take more years of him being alive, Carlin had gotten really bitter in the years before his death. Where previously his rage was playful and tempered with humor and wit, his later stuff was just angry. It was a disappointing change.
Please update if you remember. I’ve been digging through 1 shot videos, but haven’t found it yet.
Haha. Last night my teen was watching the MJ halftime performance. She was SO offended that they cut the rap out of Black and White because “it’s the only part of the song that makes sense!”
I’m also not seeing it currently, but there was an issue with long community names. If you go to Settings > Interface > Posts, try these two settings and see if it helps.
Start with the largest. Beat it up a little each day. Every few days replace with the smaller ones in a worse and worse state of decomposure.
Lots of money to just trash things, but you know.
I prefer A Mighty Wind to Guffman, but still a good rec. And American Movie is an all-time fav.
Bob even becomes convinced he can shoot people by aiming his finger-guns and yelling, “Bang!”
Wow. I completely forgot about this movie. I loved that gag. Suppose I’ll seek this one out today!
Common if you grew up with HBO in the 80s and 90s, otherwise maybe not so much.
I recently had about $40 of Play Store credit that was inaccessible to me for weeks. Google support just kept telling me “Okay, wait 24 hours and it should be good now.”
FINALLY someone got it straightened out, but during the course of it, I had to explain to support what Stadia was and why I didn’t have a gift card number.
I think you should try Christopher Moore. Suggested starting point: Lamb.
Here’s how it starts: six year old Jesus and his little brother are playing a game where the brother kills a lizard with a rock, then Jesus puts it in his mouth to resurrect it.
His humor is irreverent, absurd, and constant. The stories are all grounded in the real world though, so you won’t struggle to understand lore, settings, or language. Very easy to read.
Maybe it’s just too early in the morning for my brain, but I’ve read this sentence at least 10 times and I’m still not certain what happened to who.
Vlad spent several years as a prisoner of the Ottoman Empire, along with his younger brother Radu, and his father and older brother, Mircea, were murdered in 1447.
I think it means to read something like…
Vlad, along with his younger brother Radu, spent several years as a prisoner of the Ottoman Empire. In 1447, his father and older brother, Mircea, were murdered.
OMG (facepalm)
If STATES existed outside of the United STATES, they would BE part of the United States. It’s right there in the name. We own it.
Do your own research.
