I mean *everyone* mimics pushing the throttle quadrant forward while pulling back on the stick, then swapping hands so you can retract landing gear, tho not everyone puts the seat back and closes the canopy

while listening to Maiden’s “Aces High”

right?

they’re working on a mouthwatering Gruyère and ham option but they can’t come up with powdered ham soluble enough in a latte

Mmm, spinach and feta latte to start the morning

I'll make them notice at the Royal College of Surgeons! THRIPSHAW'S DISEASE! Discovered by E. Henry Thripshaw! I'll write a play! I'll sell the film rights!

Just cranking away on day job stuff and expressing CHRISTMASTIME! to the Danny Elfman soundtracks for Darkman and Sleepy Hollow, online, since I can’t get away with doing so out loud in this office.

“My daddy said, childhood’s over the day you know you’re gonna die.” #MovieQuotes

“Victims, aren’t we all?”

SOMETIMES IT RAINS INSIDE MY HEAD
TILL THE WORDS RUN DRY
THE WALLS ARE BREATHING HANDS ARE REACHING UP
TO TOUCH MY THIIIGHS
NO THEY DON’T HAVE TO TAKE YOU AWAY

“Whatchoo all painted up for, crackhead? Halloween ain’t till manana!”

Yep it’s Crow-Quoting Season again

oh wow

switching from the Toto "Dune" soundtrack to Cheb Khaled was definitely a good idea

but not as good as switching from Cheb Khaled to Bombino

and it took me this long to discover Terakaft? damn they're good

"Now we are ready for battle!"
"Usul here are fifteen of our finest warriors to serve you as your bodyguard. The Fidaikin."

"Hiero's hit, I'm going in after him!"
"Impetuous boy! Ah well, who wants to live forever anyway. THIRD WAVE, DIIIIIVE!"

oh wait wrong science fiction movie

you have to admit Shaddam IV's golden barge with the rotating gunner's chairs is DEFFO something Ming would have

it's Yueh! He's sabotaged the House generators!

* Atreides techno fades, replaced by the menacing low rumble of Harkonen dubstep *

oh yes I forgot to tell you the Spice is found on only one planet in the known universe. The planet is Arrakis also known as Dune.

la la la la la la la la la
When you're feeling sad and low
We will take you where you gotta go
Smiling gently everything is free
All you need is positivity

the beginning is a very delicate time
know then that it is the year 10191
the known universe is ruled by the padishah emperor shaddam IV my father
in this time the most precious substance in the universe is the spice melange
the spice extends life
the spice expands consciousness
the spice is vital to space travel
the spacing guild and its navigators whom the spice has mutated over 4000 years use the orange spice gas to fold space
that is to travel to any part of the universe without moving

CHRISTMASTIME! Hee hee hee hee!

oh WOW

okay there was this BBC show "Connections" that'd get frequent play on public television so when I was a kid. The episode I remember best "connected" plastic to credit cards as part of credit which connected up to pike squares thence to canned food, refrigeration and air conditioning.

That particular episode made such an impression because a chunk featured reenactors and REALLY sold me on knights, medievalism and D&D and related. I saw that and went WOW I WANT TO BE THAT despite the way the knight meets a bad end. And someone finally posted that clip to YouTube!
