The story of Star Wars is the story of building new lightsabers:

Congrats to this week's winner, I won't spoil that here but I will reveal that next week's movie is called Velocipastor and it's about a priest who becomes a dinosaur? I guess? Anyway, I noticed the other day on social media that Stitcher is doing a big promo for their premium service where it's something like $21 a year, so if that interests you, now you know. Paul also officially gave notice on the mini episode that there will be a pay per view charity episode of HDTGM where they do Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, with the $5 proceeds going to a charity that tries to get out the vote in the US. You can also sign up to be a poll worker, which I understand is an issue in the upcoming US election, so speaking as a nervous foreigner watching all this from afar, I encourage my American friends to do whatever they safely can to contribute to that effort. Think of it this way: if the Koch brothers and Putin have their way, the only movies we'll ever get to watch is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

I've never been a poll worker, but I have done election protection, where I monitored polling locations, making sure the lines aren't crazy or people who show up and not on the list get it figured it out or voters aren't discouraged and turned away or whatnot. That's really satisfying too! (Depends on the state rules, so unsure if this is a requirement, but I did this in my capacity of having a law degree.)

Alright!

That’s awesome @muttnik! I hadn’t even thought about working at the polls until today’s episode. I think your endorsement just clinched it

Yes! Please sign up if you're thinking about it/could use a few extra bucks! It's so important! I'm signed up for my state as a laptop operator and guys, it's the easiest job. And believe me, if someone with anxiety, ASD, and ADHD is telling you it's a breeze, it'll be like an ultra mega Geostorm breeze for ya. Do it!

I'm about 15 minutes in to Velocipastor and oof, for a 70 minute movie this already feels pretty long. I'll probably get high and finish it tonight. Anyone else have long weekend plans? If you have a PS4 and haven't picked it up already, there is a big sale on one of the editions of Red Dead Redemption 2, which is apparently how Jason spends a lot of his time these days according to his appearance on How Did This Get Played?

Why is there even one way to skin a cat?

Mr. Gorbachev, eat out this clit!

Oh, also wanted to mention for my fellow comics fans and because I know Jason is a big fan of my fellow comics makers Kris Bertin and Andrew Forbes (creators of the Hobtown Mysteries series) here in Nova Scotia, they have a short piece in a new anthology from their publisher, Conundrum press. The new book is called Nova Graphica and it's a collection of short tales about the region by local cartoonists.

I have to admit, I enjoyed this movie when I watched it as a kid. In fact, I watched it more than once. That being said, I certainly don't want to be seen as trying to mount a campaign to save the reputation for this movie. (I won't win, and my rose colored glasses from watching this when I was younger, I'm sure colored my opinion.)

Euripides' Shorts? More like Euripides' NUTZ.... got em.

Believe me, there’s no shortage of nuts over here—ripped or otherwise!

HOW THE FUCK HAVE THEY NOT DONE NORTH YET?

All my cases are brief cases, said the arrogant lawyer.

I was very disappointed their birthday was some random day in April instead of February 22nd.

Saw this pop up in a children's Dungeons and Dragons quiz on The Beano https://www.beano.com/posts/dungeons-dragons-character-quiz https://www.beano.com/posts/dungeons-dragons-character-quiz

I watched this as a kid, remembered quite a bit. Then they roasted Rob Reiner on CC and everybody was talking about how NORTH was the biggest price of shit EVER. I remember thinking, "it can't be that bad", and never thought about it again. Then a year ago I saw it was on tv, so I watched it. The rest is just a blur, but based off the police report, this was my reaction after watching NORTH, grown up, after all these years... ME: THIS MOVIE! *thunder claps outside* ME: THIS MOVIE!! *i throw my tv out the window, smashing it to bits raining glass and... rain everywhere* ME: THIS MOOOVIE!!! *i rip my clothes off and jump out my one story window* ME: THIS MOVIE! *i cover my whole buddy in mud* ME: THIS FUCKING MOVIE!!! *i burn my house down* ME: GIBBERISHNESS MAH MAH AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!! *i start pooping in the middle of the street* So yeah, it drove me insane. And that's why I think the HDTGM crew should do NORTH, it inducing insanity on its unsuspecting viewer.

The quote on top of that poster is so amazing.
