they’re kitted out like they’re storming the beach at Normandy & then trying to chase people, brilliant stuff

What could possibly be so mission-critical in those fucking Rob Liefeld leg pouches?

Gallon bags of Skoal? Their sacred back issue collection of Der Sturmer? An entire KFC Family Bucket?

The hallway fight scene. So that guy is Benny “The Jet” Yrquidez, and JC had been training with him since “Say Anything”. I read that bc they had sparred together for so many years, they went like 80% strength with each other, and so to me this fight has a gritty realness to it that feels natural

personally, i don’t require that people like me in order to oppose them being slaughtered but we all make choices I guess

The man who made movie poster art, well, *an art* has passed: the great Drew Struzan.

Loved his work.

Let's not forget how he was tasked to make a poster for The Thing in hours knowing only the premise of the original 1951 film. The paint was STILL WET when he handed it in.

May he rest in peace.

Drew Struzan's poster for John Carpenter's 1982 movie The Thing, which depicts a weird unearthly light emanating from the unseen face of a man wearing a parka in a wintry setting.

Tagline: "The ultimate in alien terror."

If he hadn’t sent the second message I wouldn’t be on here Old Man Posting but I LOATHE that kind of old school hard bargaining kind of thing from a small business. Hey man, your quirky individualism is interfering with your vocation

An American Werebadger in Oregon @werebadger.bsky.social · 16h

i get that. My spouse said that.

Site talks about them being an established 50 year family business & “the best in the valley” but I’d never heard of them so I sent an email to another company that is a local business about that old (40 years) I’d actually used before & they were happy to help

I’m trying to imagine just pissing away a $500 sale and then trying the actual oldest trick in the crappy sales handbook

(I have been forbidden from trolling this guy so I have to vent a little)

An American Werebadger in Oregon @werebadger.bsky.social · 16h

guess what, this dude was full of shit and I got a cord of wood delivered today from the second business I contacted, paid with a credit card over the phone and they were super nice about it because it’s 2025 you crusty old fart

fucking Watto-ass businessman

(our furnace is out lol 🙃)

Me: “Hey (redacted)
I have a couple questions about your delivery of
cord wood. First off is, are you able to take credit cards? Second, do you have open delivery time this weekend?
Thanks for your time, have a good day”

(Business Representative) : “Cash only on delivery no checks no cards no vemmo we are currently about two weeks out on deliveries
you would have to get on our waiting list”

Me: “Okay thanks”

(Business Representative) : “Any reputable supplier is a couple weeks out on deliveries. You find somebody available tomorrow. You
will probably get less than you bargain for”
