My stupid brain always associates the name Thirteen Ghosts with Venom (2005) and I only realized why just now, when I looked up the latter:

Summary: A group of teenagers fear for their lives in the swamps of Louisiana, chased by Mr. Jangles, a man possessed by 13 evil souls, and now relentless in his pursuit of new victims.

I only saw Venom once when I was way too young and it has its own neural pathway.

Bonus: I found Venom by searching “horror movie truck snake demon” because that’s the imagery that automatically pops into my head alongside Thirteen Ghosts. It’s the first result.

We could be living in utopia, but those damn youths had to go and break stuff

It’s like post-marketing. You’re already a user/customer, but companies still want to put psychological hooks in you.

Kind of reminds me of steam’s insane discounts or epic giving away games. That’s more geared toward bringing people in, maybe.

I’d like to believe some instances of this sort of thing can be out of genuine appreciation for supporters, but I might just be naive… It is straight out of the abuser’s handbook.

“I know you’re sick of it, but I’m gonna need you to get the chicken Parm again. Trust the process!”

But babe, we have to go out tonight. It’s for science!

I was going to make a joke that you didn’t even mention the tubes, but TIL that’s anti-net-neutrality idiot propaganda :( Idk why I thought it was, like, Tim Burners Lee or someone trying to explain things to non-nerds.

I literally have that one followed by this

Lmao, so I’ve used PollyMC before and knew about Prism forking from PolyMC, but I never knew why. Luckily, I made it out of the rabbit hole.

Mad Men was hard for me to keep up with because I just hated everyone and it made me angry

TIL my brain is full of schwanz

There are a few moments that nod straight to Breaking Bad though, like Tuco’s entry. It had me fanboying and hyped for the directing/writing especially across shows. I also feel like you can really get a sense of the writers’ personal development coming off of Breaking Bad, like they refined so much that was already some of the best TV. And the contrast between Walt’s unreal saga and how Saul is so humanized; he’s deeply flawed but just a guy trying to make it.

I really need to finish Better Call Saul.

I can’t believe I forgot about Letterkenny. The riffing is just so good, it doesn’t get old, and every character is perfect. And the music, especially season one’s display is exactly my taste. The whole show is top notch, but season one is something special.

Schitt’s Creek, too. Both are Canadian gems. I love how like half of the cast is Eugene Levy’s family, and Dan Levy is bae. It’s one of the few comedies to bring me to tears, I’m pretty sure more than once.

So many shows have to be tied for number one for me lmao. Every time I look back at this thread the list gets longer.

I was recently watching Archer again, so I’ll have to see how the later seasons hit this time around. It’s one of those shows I’ve watched multiple times over (all the shows I mentioned are, honestly) and it seemed to fall off, but I might have just been finally burnt out lol.

And that’s a good point about Bob’s Burgers. It’s always pretty wholesome. I almost forgot about all the songs, too. They’re so good!

It’s Always Sunny and Bob’s Burgers are standouts for me, along with a lot of this thread.

I guess I’d categorize them both as shows where every character, however minor, contributes perfectly to the hilarity and overall vibe of the show. Really, any show with great chemistry/cohesion and ownership of the characters, where you couldn’t change a single thing to make it better. Psych and Futurama are a couple mentioned that fit the bill. Others are on the tip of my tongue but not coming to me. Oh, King of the Hill!

The best thing about IASIP and Bob’s Burgers is there isn’t a single off/bad episode in the first like 12 and 5 seasons, respectively. I stopped keeping up with both at some point when I was up to date and waiting. There’s not really a bad episode in any of those shows.

What I really like about Bob’s Burgers is how they record all together and have a lot of fast quipping and reactive energy.

Oh, and Archer! At least until things really switched up.

I can hear the snaps from the shadow lol

I’m still on bemenu since I used dmenu with dwm on X. I should probably check the others out.

This, logseq, and PKM in general for me. I guess it’s not really “can’t live without” because I hardly know where to start, but the possibilities for organizing my mess of a brain are enticing.

It would probably help to have a project to work on and actually use the things rather than diving too deep into PKM conceptually… Really wish I knew about them in school, though.

Midi chlorines is my favorite chiptunes album

Fair enough, but that is OP, my friend
