Muppet for scale conundrum.

I always thought the Gorgs and Sweetums were the same size. But based on the Muppet Family Christmas, Kermit is the same size as the Fraggles. And the Kermit to Sweetums ratio ≠ the Junior Gorg to Gobo ratio.

So therefor the Gorgs are larger than Sweetums.

Muppet Math!
So this happened.

I hope everyone has or will find someone who enjoys you like Cringer enjoys sucking the edible bits off of an Etherian roasted fish…

Me: In a flurry of weird excitement and after an overdose of Crystal Light I develop time travel.

Everyone Else: Where are you traveling to?!? An old Toys R Us to stock up on vintage Jetfires and copies of Fireball Island?!

Me: Shows up at this photo op so I can hug the werewolf Vestron PR dude…

Hey @michaelmay.bsky.social, guess what? My son came rushing up to me when I got home, excited because he found one of my books that he really wanted me to read to him.

age verification?

I’m younger than Star Wars, but older than Elvis Dying on a toilet.

5:00am, I walk into work and immediately an older lady that works adjacent to my area (and is usually the only other person here at this ungodly hour), shuffled over with her phone held up to me and she was like “LOOK AT THE 2ND DEGREE BURNS ON MY DAUGHTER’S THIGHS AND PELVIS!”

I almost screamed…

In 1989 your kids could wear these to sleep. And then they’d come stumbling into your room at 2:00am when the gummies are really kicking in and JFC…

That weird feeling as a collector when super rare, niche items that you already own pop up on ebay and you still feel that pull to snag them. Yes. Collecting is kind of a sickness…

The Mexican lobby card/poster is one of the rarer Monster Squad posters and that French VHS was so hard to find…

I should have taken a picture with me AND the most famous shutters I’ve ever seen. Damnit, no one is going to believe that part of my eulogy now…

So I won one of those Slice Apple soda gift sets back in December but they never shipped it. So I bought one myself like a commoner.

Verdict? I liked it.

Is it like it was? Hell no. It only has 5 carbs. But being on Keto set me up to appreciate it.

Ultimately I have an empty (and pretty) can. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m always excited for a new CFC episode, but especially this one. I remember how much this movie blew my mind as a kid. “Evil Macaulay Culkin? Say it ain’t so!”
We’re in the taint of winter and everything is kinda depressing, so this month the Cult Film Club is leaning into that hard as we talk the 1993 Macaualy Culkin Killer Thriller The Good Son! Don’t F with MaCulkin!

Stoked to discover that The Good Son (our latest episode of @cultfilmclub.com) had a novelization.

@paxholley.com, you up for reading a book this dark?

You can hear our take on The Good Son here (or whereever you snag podcasts)

Today over at @cultfilmclub.com me, Shawn & Pax discuss the anxiety-inducing 1993 thriller THE GOOD SON starring Elijah Wood & Macaulay Culkin, both incredible in their roles.

Don't let those sweet, innocent faces fool you, this movie is fuuuucked up!
