I passed some of these witticisms on to my hubby. He said to note that you can make a source of electricity from a wet soda cracker with a penny on one side and a nickel on the other. Don't let the word get around that you've done it, though. You might get arrested for a saltine battery.

oh groan and double groan.

After I drank my coffee, I showed my empty mug to the IT guy and told him I've successfully installed Java. He hates me...

Suicide Squad...

I just fell in love. Please whoever wrote this, I adore you. Marry Me! because you wrote this review from Vanity Fair that did it:

“Suicide Squad” is bad. Not fun bad. Not redeemable bad. Not the kind of bad that is the unfortunate result of artists honorably striving for something ambitious and falling short. “Suicide Squad” is just bad. It’s ugly and boring, a toxic combination that means the film’s highly fetishized violence doesn’t even have the exciting tingle of the wicked or the taboo. (Oh, how the movie wants to be both of those things.) It’s simply a dull chore steeped in flaccid machismo, a shapeless, poorly edited trudge that adds some mildly appalling sexism and even a soupçon of racism to its abundant, hideously timed gun worship. But, perhaps worst of all, “Suicide Squad” is ultimately too shoddy and forgettable to even register as revolting. At least revolting would have been something."

I take it you didn't like it.

I didn't see the movie.

This is one of those reviews that is spectacular in its eloquence because it is sparse. I read another review that was 1700 words and sounded like a therapy session. This is 130 words. It does however say that its author is jaded and stuck up with an overblown ego.

I'm going to wait for the movie to hit free cable.

I have several other movies that I know I will enjoy -- "Fantastic Beasts" and "Dr Strange" and possibly "Inferno" ... that last one off the latest novel by Dan Brown.

Well, they all have their pluses and minuses.

A forbidden statue of a very naked eunuch (not one of ours but of a banned subject) was placed in 5 cities today...

Remember -- this is taboo...

Please don't make any comments here. It's forbidden. Go make them in the comments at the website.

I'm going to wash my eyeballs, scrub my hands, sanitize my keyboard, and quite possibly vomit.

Pretend that this post isn't here.

Don't even laugh at it here. Just hit the link and ignore this post.
