hard to overstate the impact Rob Reiner had on our culture, the ubiquitous references, the cadence of humor, drama, conversation

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (either War or Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.
(This was not the gif I wanted, but after FOUR attempts to upload that I just gave up and used this one. On a related note I hate this interface sometimes).

6 matches per group. 12 groups. So 72 matches to get rid of just 16 teams? Really? The phrase "pointless money grab" kind of springs to mind. #worldcup2026
World Cup draw. Remember half of the third placed teams go through. Unlikely to be a gripping group stage, but some fun matchups nonetheless.

Strangest sentence I've read today :-
"My moms are homophobic as fuck"
No context. No explanation. Just the sentence.

Well the release schedule for #StrangerThings Series 5 is slightly more balanced than Series 4 but still annoying as all get out.

Well I think I've found a solution. It involves writing an application to process the WriterSolo "export to CSV" format, but hey - nothing's perfect in this life. #ao3 #nanowrino #writersolo #coding #codingyay

So my #NaNoWriMo story has hit a snag because formatting it on #Ao3 is proving a total bugger to do.
So watch this space. (Well not this space because it will be on Ao3 but you get the idea)

Well that's all folks. My #NaNoWriMo story is done. "Lost In A Galaxy Far, Far Way" - a screen play that takes in the first three Star Wars stories and totals 90, 785 words. Total of 29 days (don't do the maths, it will just worry you). And I admit - at the moment I am damn proud of it.

So much of the final episode in #spincity is outstanding, but The Mayor's farewell is - quite probably - the highpoint. It really shows the comedy genius of Barry Bostwick and the writers. He does such a brilliant job of it.

Every time I watch the "Am I gay?" scene between Barry Bostwick and Connie Britton I am always impressed they get through it without cracking up. #spincity
The expressions on Connie Britton's face are just hilarious.
