Pro tip: if you see a group of people, online or in real life, joking around or talking about movies, t.v. shows, video games, sports, comic books, or whatever, DON'T be the guy who says, "well, I think there's more important things to be concerned about right now."

People can't just sit around worrying about the Kung Flu 24/7. The stress itself would probably kill them. Right now, humor and escapism are good for our mental health.

In short, to quote Sgt. Hulka:

@Bilitamp Infinity War, Dark Knight, Inception.

Those are actually the only ones I've ever seen.

First pineapple and now kiwi?

For the love of all that is holy, STOP PUTTING FRUIT ON PIZZA!

Can we all agree that there are some movies that appeal mostly to men? If some women like those movies, that's fine, but the primary appeal is to men?

Conversely, some movies appeal to women. If some men like them, that's okay, but they still primarily appeal to women? Can we agree to this baseline?

Many years ago, a girl I was dating convinced me to see "The Bridges of Madison County," with Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep. And at one point Eastwood takes his shirt off, pumps out some water from a well and starts washing himself.

And Meryl Streep is staring at him through an upstairs bedroom window. And she starts biting her lower lip and rubbing her arms, cause she's so turned on by Eastwood's sixty-year-old meaty man-boobs. And then he puts on his shirt and walks back to the house, and she runs over to the mirror and starts putting on makeup and earrings.

At this point, I was like, "Oh, shit. This movie is about something in the female experience that is totally alien to me. Christ, it's only thirty minutes in? The next hour is gonna be an ordeal."

So, ladies, can you admit that just because I don't like this movie, it doesn't mean that if I drive home and my girl has burnt dinner that I'm gonna go all "burning bed" on her ass and start throwing haymakers?

I cannot WAIT for all of the movies that come out next year that are all shot like they're Zoom meetings. Boy oh BOY that'll be a good time.
