Funny story about the video: that isn't the band in the sexy video. The band is from Ontario, but the band's label Casablanca is stationed in The Land Down Under. Being that far away they couldn't get the band to shoot a video, they hired some Aussie dudes to act and direct the video sans permission. The end result is a golden phoenix.
You don't know relief until you finish a bottle of Maker's Mark thinking you are out of whiskey and then see a dusty bottle of Knob Creek peering at you from the back of the liquor cabinet. On a related note, I like to imagine that my liquor cabinet is like those little green aliens in Toy Story and that I'm the claw.
"The Graaaaaavy. The Gravy is our master. The Gravy chooses who will be drank and who shall stay." Relief is finding that fifth of schnapps you've hidden at the back of your freezer in case of an emergency (a.k.a. after 9pm in the Bible Belt).
If it's peppermint I suggest you find a bottle of chocolate syrup, so that you can make a peppermint patty.
I know we are supposed to be mocking this video, but I greatly enjoyed watching that guy dance. I want to go out with him. (As in go out dancing with him, not date him. 96% sure that guy's gay.) What I don't understand is why he was rapping through Bane's mask. I couldn't hear anything he was saying.
I am actually really happy that video exists. Favorite part? The white beefcake wearing pikachu masks. Yes.
I've listened to it about 8 times tonight. Shit's catchy. And, yes, he is extremely, famously gay. He's also local (for us), so you might get your wish.
I'm watching a 1922 horror film...Nosferatu. If doubt this shit scared anyone, ever. It's still pretty amusing. Doesn't sound familiar? Maybe you recognize this picture:
No scary movies! Not even the old cheesy ones. I have serious problems stemming from some Stephen King movies viewed at age 4.
I've never seen Nosferatu, but I have seen Shadow of the Vampire, a movie about the filming of Nosferatu, in which they cast an actual vampire as Nosferatu but only the director knew. It had its moments.
Nosferatu is an important film historically, but not scary save for Shreck's appearance which is startling ocnsidering the film was made in 1922. You want modern-era fright? What household would have this toy sitting around in the first place even if it WASN'T haunted?
So there's like a massive group of adults with down syndrome at this hostel. And for some reason the beds are pushed together at the centre of the room rather than pushed up against the walls. Weird.
