Washington D.C.: Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy




Washington D.C.: Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy


Stumbled on this "meme" the other day and thought I'd share this and a few others of the same. Sort of a "one stop shop" for it. Enjoy ...




I remember Star Wars the first film. It will always be Star Wars to me, NOT "Episode Four A New Hope". Saw it sixteen times in the theater back in '77. Saw the second, seven times. After that, I stopped caring. Even less now that it's a "cult", cg and all ...

When in doubt ... VOTE 'EM OUT!


Sir Alec did dabble in Sci Fi before. The Man In the White Suit comes to mind.


The one residing here will be out after 2016.
Ya'll make sure Hillary doesn't replace him.


Sort of a repeat but just as good.


I shouldn't be so ungrateful. They are here to "help" me after all ...


I did time in Jersey. No, I wasn't in prison ... I just did time there ...


Typical day in D.C.. Thought I'd throw this one in ... or out.

Kyon contemplates "pretty poison".


3. star worse - It's not that I hate the franchise.  Actually I don't. It's only that I got burned out on it early on. Saw the first in '77 sixteen times in the theater. The second seven times. After that, I lost interest.  Saw the third one several years later on cable & only a small part at that. If you like it, fine. Whatever floats yer boat.

"English m----------r! ... Do you speak it!?"
"I am fluent in over six million forms of communication &
can readily ---" ......................................... BANG!


3. evangelion as the three stooges - Soitny'!

Hikari Horaki looks on disaprovingly as Kensuke "Larry" Aida,
Toji "Moe" Suzuhara, & Shinji "Curly" Ikari cut up in class.

4. haruhi suzumiya is God - Well ... yes! Why do people feel the need to state the obvious?

I thought Lain Iwakura was the lessor god of the net ...

5. cthulhu burger - Well ... Now we know what's in that "pink slime" stuff.



6. rei ayanami mad - Would a slight frown do?

"Rapture" Rei Ayanami. Sugar coated death.
12-21-12: When you see this, you'll krap bricks!

7. mlp haruhi - Blasphemy! ... Sacrilege! ...

This is just ... so ... wrong ...


Well, there ya have it. Seez ya next time ...

Star Wars: Star Worn Out

I really shouldn't laugh. I'm into movies 'n anime after all.

                                           Star Wars: Star Worn Out

                                                              by

      When Star Wars (I refuse to call it Episode 4, A New Hope!) hit the screen in 1977, I saw it sixteen times in theaters. SIXTEEN TIMES! Usually twice at a sitting.It was fresh, new. It was the first time since 1966 (2001 A Space Odyssey) sci-fi got a "big budget" treatment (Only 9 1/2 million to make but it looked waaaay more expensive.). We owe a lot to George Lucas. This was the film that opened up a "reniasance" for sci-fi that continues to this day.

      But .....

      When The Empire Strikes Back came along, I only took it in about eight times. After that ..... meh. I figured the franchise got enough of my dough. I didn't even bother to see any of the other films except for bits 'n pieces on TV over the years.

      I got star worn out. When the franchise started to become "kool" I knew it wouldn't be long til it got mainstreamed. Then all the people who looked askance of me for digging it would be on the bandwagon too. Some, no doubt, ready to tell me they were with me all along. Even to be disappointed that I wasn't still on it with them. No. Time to get off & get off I did.

      Now it's "marginalized". And such a BIG margin it is!


Now I love a parade as much as the next guy but come on!
      
      I don't hate the franchise. I wish Mr. Lucas & co. the best of fortune. I've merely lost love for it long ago. It was fun for me while it lasted & I'm glad to have "been there".
