Had never heard the phrase "cousin walk" before today but cannot deny it being a thing: my own cousin and I once smoked seeds out of a Diet Pepsi can behind her barn on a -10 degree Thanksgiving Eve

PUBLIC ENEMIES, because if my take hadn't annoyed all my Facebook friends so much, I probably never would've become a film critic, which gave me the chance to annoy so, so many more people
What movie are you most thankful for? (not necessarily your favorite!)

This project is crying out for a really obnoxious, self-satisfied director and a really shallow, programmatic script 🤌

Side note: the way you complete the chord with pecan pie is with a moderate dollop of whipped cream and a cup of black coffee
I think Pecan Pie is one of those things that is divisive now because it’s just a blob of sugar with nuts on it but to someone 150 years ago who ate shoes it was probably like having 12 orgasms at once

Not that I would ever choose violence, but if you want to piss everyone off with a bad cultural take, music is clearly your best target of opportunity.
