The Lounge / Well, the lesbians really fyc***ed me this time....

So cat #3 died.  Yeah, I know.  I liked the cat.  But everyone else in house Crouton was really attached to this cat.

The next step, get a new cat.  I don't know how the hell this makes any sense but whatever. 

Mrs. Crouton goe scat shopping.  Picks this black cat.  I'm not racist.  I don't thinktt the cat being black ahs anything to di with it.  A very tall lay brings over a black cat. 

This cat hates everyone!  It's been a good long decade since we've been cat shopping so I didn't know what to make of it. 

Okay, so to make a lon shtory short we now have an extremely hateful cat in the utility closet for the next two weeks and I squarely blame the LGTQ community for this!

The Lounge / Can't sleep. Part 1. Flags of the world
« on: March 08, 2023, 03:59:03 AM »
Alright.  Kind of an easy list to make since most country's flags are kind of stupid.

I'd have to say Albania is my favorite flag.  It looks badass but maybe a little fascist.



Israel.  Not bad.  But putting a star of david?  Kind of seems anti-Semitic somehow.



UK.  This would be a great flag but they were obviously drunk when they drew it.  The diagonal lines are off for Christ's sake.



Ukraine.  I learned they flipped the colors a while back so it looks like a grain field on the bottom with a blue sky on top.  Kind of cool.  Not very threatening though.



The US flag... this just looks bad in my opinion.  It's like they had a contest for a grade school student to make our flag.  Worse yet, Uruguay, Togo, Malaysia, Liberia and Greece have suspiciously similar flags to ours.  I don't know if they're mocking us or if they think this will trick us into not bombing them.



I would have to say the worst flag is Saudi Arabia's.  A green mat with a crooked sword and they just scribbled a bunch of shit on it?  Without looking it up I'm guessing it's either gibberish or it says "Saudi Arabia flg"(I'm assuming there's typos in it).

This series is dumb as hell and the plot doesn't make any goddamn sense.

Yet I am really liking it.

It's okay so far. I do see one nasty flaw. The father is seriously miscast. Bring back Raul Julia!

Everything everywhere all at once. -- It's beaitufl in a way that makes my heart ache.

Midight Mass.  Regretitabl it as not worknng an award.  I'm strongly considering calling in a bob through tot he memmeyes aout this is.  My justice shll not terry.

The Watchmen(hbo) I think it did recicve awards.

Promising Young woman.  They're advertze it as daterape batman but it's not quite that.  It's a moie centered on rape.  But the rape is always held at a distane.  It's not her rape, it's her friend's rape.  It's rarely caled rape.  At one point we hear video evidence of the rape bu we have to know what we hearing of ahead of the time to know what it is.  But the protogonoist knows what it is.  She's enraged.  she created a plot to murder them. However she keep smurderd in the process but not before shooting off evidence of their misdeeds to the police.

I see it and I wonder, wouldn't every be much better off if she just let it go like everyone ewas telling her.

My facebook account has been hacked.  All the contact information is changed.  I don't know how the hell this happened.  I have two factor authentication turned on.  Fortunately I'm still logged in on my pc so I can make posts.

So here's my plan;

Backup everything; check
Leave a digital "suicide note"; check

Now I need to get myself permabanned.  I'm aware of some of the really bad conspiracy theories that'll get you banned.  It's just that google suppresses them in search results.  It's actually kind of hard to find these as the top search results are usually sites that debunk these.

Well it looks like this is going to be a thing we need to discuss.

My opinion of the man is not good. Though I admit I spent 75% of my time in a liberal media bubble.

I am open to the possibility that my impressions are wrong though. I hope they are since there's a real possibility he'll be our next president.

Okay that's a little hyperbolic.  The article is about the memoir of a higher up in NASA that's decided to air all their dirty laundry.  Basically the organization, at least the manned mission part, looks so dysfunctional that they can't even manage to get astronauts to and from the ISS.

Here's what I told it to paint;

Michael Bolton playing chess with Eminem

Joe Biden as Jesus

Vladamir Putin kissing Donald Trump

Joe Biden in the Golden Girls

Vladamir Putin in Seinfeld

Joe Biden in Tombstone.

The results are interesting.

Could this be the end of Boris Johnson just for really liking to party?

UK politics seem so tame in comparison.

So I reserve the right to delete this if it embarasses th ehll out of me.  I'm a little ontoxicated.

I found out a few month ago that he my dad ahs termainal prostat ecancer. 

Check this out this is kind of funny. At one point they throught it was a stroke.  So they gave him.. wait for it.. the Exactly test they gave president trump that he bragged about.

Trump bragged about passing a test makes made to see if your brains are scrabled.

So vi visited him todya.  He leave me his last wish.  No funeral, No burla, none of that shit.  Nothing that cotsmoney.  I ask if he wants me to sprinkle the asjhses with mom's grave.  he says "whatever, i recan't realy stop you at hat point'.

So 12 months.  I plan t visit every month.  Everything is a new phase in watching the cancer eat him alive.  My brother ad sister noce tht  because they live with him every day.  It hits me every time I see him

You'd think the worst part owuld be my dad dying.  That's not the worst part.  he worst part is that I have to figure out wha th ehll I'm going to do with my loser brother and sister who can't support themselves.

Man fuck my life!

Every time there was someone in the news whose face I see but I've never heard them talk, I always imagined they had his voice.

Todays' case study, Station 11.

98% approval on rotten tomatoes.  81% on metacritic.  I think I'm the only one who hates this show.

Episode 1.  Setups up an end of the world scenario through a pandemic.  And it does it through a somewhat serious and sober way.  Wow!  Great!  I am all about end of the world porn.  Then at the end of the episode they jump forward 20 years and it's... They've all become a travelling group of actors.  The absolute worst choice of profession in the aftermath of a complete breakdown of civilization.  My heart sank.  It felt like that episode of South park with the Terrance and Phillip episode, except it was the entire series.

Episode 2 and maybe 3( pretty drunk, don't quite remember 3).  They pretty much spend the entire episodes being actors and talking about acting.

Episode 4.  This is where I really started to hate the show.  The main character of this episode is some lady I've never seen before.  Her story takes places across 3 different time period and I can't tell which period preceded the other.  It started with a phone call to get the hell out of China because of the plague.  Then she spends the rest of the episode arguing with her boyfriend.

Episode 5.  Here I'm starting to suspect that this show might be a comedy.  We're back in the post apocalypse times.  The acting group meetings up with a few former members.  But tragedy has befallen them.  A mysterious asshole called the prophet has abducted their children and the children of many other people.

Obviously anyone hearing of such a thing would be compelled like white blood cells to descend upon this criminal and eliminate by any means necessary.

Their solution was to write a modernized version of Hamlet.  I'm not joking.  But I don't know if the show thinks it's funny or not.

There are 5 more episodes but I don't know if I'm going to be able to watch them since Mrs. Crouton has forbidden me to.  She is confused by the concept of hate watching and disturbed over how much I yell angrily about this show.

The Lounge / Pop quiz: what does this personalize license plate mean?
« on: December 14, 2021, 01:21:32 AM »
I have a truck that's old enough to qualify for vintage plates.  So no more emissions checks.

One small thing though, I had the option of getting a personalized license plate.  I picked 'JZLRD' and now Mrs. Crouton thinks I put a dick joke on my truck.

And Dune comes out tomorrow. What lousy timing, maybe if I can firmly tap my head  with a weighted rubber mallet I can get a similar effect.
