You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you.

Who's coming to save you?

I think I’ll do alright

Who can forget,

“Why? How do we know he didn’t invent the thing.”

Name that tune…. If you would be so kind.

Because I took Latin in High School, the whole scene where Brian has a grammar lesson at sword point busts me up. I think if my teacher had used a gladius I’d have been a more attentive student. Maybe.

The random tourist at the end of Blazing Saddles that was shooed off but came back in time for the shot of the cast bursting out of the studio who then was chased down to sign a release to keep his clueless reaction in the Final Cut.
Fav film performance with under ten minutes on camera?

Just watched a short documentary of the most Soviet thing. Super Laser Attack aircraft destroyed because ground crew was stealing the cooling alcohol from the laser, caused an arc, set the plane on fire, firemen need permission to access secret aircraft, it’s destroyed before they get permission

Everything’s made up
Literally everything’s made up
Like the words that I am saying
The rules by which we’re all playing
Everything that is and was and will be is made up
Religion and borders
Marriages and new world orders
Money that we tender
The rules for having a gender
Name your fav song lyric.

First I will pretend I can do it on my own
That I don't need your help this time
I convince you I am good alone
But don't believe, don't believe me

Then I will begin to argue and defend
I'll twist the truth, try blaming you
Make my case that I am innocent
But don't believe, don't believe me
Name your fav song lyric.

You can have it; I don't want it
And when you've got, it I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying
When the damage has all been done
Name your fav song lyric.

Larry Levine was my undergrad thesis advisor. His book Highbrow Lowbrow is a jewel, showing 19th Century Americans of all stripes knew Shakespeare well 1/
