An older gentleman from “It’s A Wonderful Life,” standing on his porch after unsuccessfully trying to get George Bailey to kiss Mary Hatch after he witnessed the two in a prolonged flirting session as they were walking home from a high school graduation dance, muttering to himself, “Youth is wasted on the wrong people.”

Oldie but goody:
A comic in 4 frames. The first three frames are smaller and skinner across the top. The first shows a woman staring out a dark window, exclaiming, "It's pitch-black out!" The second frame shows the same woman looking very concerned, mouth gaping, arms out, asking, "What TIME is it?" The third frame has the same woman with her head turned, and eyes wide, asking, "IS IT MIDNIGHT?" The larger and wider third frame shows the same woman, hand on her head and face up in hysteria, shouting, "IT FEELS LIKE MIDNIGHT!" In the same frame, a man with folded arms and straight face, exuding calm, simply states, "It's 5:27 p.m."

In addition to today being Halloween, it also marks the 508th anniversary of Augustinian friar Martin Luther posting his 95 Theses to the door at All Saints Church in Wittenberg, Germany, kick-starting the Protestant Reformation.
Painting of Martin Luther after posting his 95 Theses on the door of the church in Wittenberg, Germany, only the Luther's head has been replaced by the head of Frank Costanza (from Seinfeld), and a caption has been added reading, "I got a lot of problems with you people!!!"

Jack Sparrow still from when he told the redcoat “But you have heard of me” after being told he was the worst pirate the redcoat had ever heard of, only the caption here reads: “But it is a week later.”

First intermission, and it's very good. A still image of the curtain:

Some might disagree with this, but fashion trends needs to reintroduce pleated, high-waisted mens dress pants.
Black and white image of actor James Stewart wearing a suit and fedora. Stewart's hands are in his pants pockets and his tie is tucked into his pants. The suit pants are high-waisted and include at least one pleat (though it looks like two) atop each leg, and are cuffed at the bottom.

A photo of musician Jon Batiste (in a blue suit and pink shirt, no tie) standing next to yours truly (in a maroon polo). Cropped out at her request: my fangirling wife, who is standing to Batiste's right.

Ugh.
A haboob (with the face of a Shiba Inu photoshopped into it) spreading over a suburban landscape. The haboob is captioned "The Supreme Court" and the suburban landscape not yet touched by the haboob is captioned "A thriving, modern society."
