Jurassic Park is so quality like the little girl is the hacker, the main woman is sensibly dressed & smart & allowed to have agency w/o people being like “no women can’t do that thing”, and Jeff Goldblum is the one who’s shirt is sexily open & who’s injury causes him to lie in a strategic model pose to his best advantage. Plus of course the cgi & robotics are incredible
My friend got married yesterday and we missed the wedding because of work but we made it to the reception. Because its mid-September and the reception was in a nature center (awesome!) there was a little bit of a fall theme. Not overbearingly, but the tables all had these tiny pumpkins.
So they’re cleaning up at the end of it and we’re still hanging out because we haven’t seen these people in forever and we can talk until three in the morning when we get together. All of a sudden, the Maid of Honor hands us a tiny pumpkin.
“Take one.”
“Um… okay?”
“Take another.”
“….?”
“It is my duty as Maid of Honor to make sure that the guests leave with an uncomfortable number of tiny pumpkins.”
So it turns out that she’d gotten a bunch of them for a Halloween party last year and after the party was over her mom threw them into the compost heap thinking that would be the end of it. But what she didn’t seem to realize was that if you put pumpkins in a compost heap- it grows more pumpkins. It grows pumpkins exponentially. Serious mathematical anomaly pumpkins.
So this year she has even more tiny pumpkins and she figured it would be a good idea to have them as decor for the reception. BUT- she would still have to throw them out at the end of the day and no matter where you throw them you are doomed to have a ridiculous amount of tiny pumpkins growing SOMEWHERE at your fault.
So everyone left with at least two tiny pumpkins and that’s how we made friends with the Maid of Honor.
So I forgot about it and then the next morning I woke up and found these two tiny pumpkins in my purse and had a puzzling moment of ‘what?’
We were invited to the Maid of Honor’s house the other day so we could:
take some of the flowers off her hands
help with some post-wedding stuff
watch the presidential debate
play Clue for like three hours
drink a lot of booze.
And there are just… tiny pumpkins EVERYWHERE.
They were in the bathroom.
At the end of the night, I counted 26 tiny pumpkins, and that was just what I could see.
Little Sammy is impatient to prove to Dad he’s fit for hunting. Since Dad won’t let him join them, he asks Dean to take him out in the field. Sammy is so eager that he even lets Dean pick the hunt. It doesn’t matter, as long as he isn’s left behind anymore. After days of pestering, Dean decides to take him to what he believes being a harmless tourist trap. “…it doesn’t look like a real hunt to me”, Sammy points out, looking doubtful. “Dude, it’s right on the brochure. Guided tours, gift shop – castle ghost. What do you want more?!” Dean doesn’t expect to be so spectacularly wrong!
It’s reveal day!
Here’s my entry for this year’s SPNSummerGen, based on tyrsibs’s prompt:
“Dude, it’s right on the brochure. Guided tours, gift shop – castle ghost”
so a new girl in the building accidentally set off the fire alarms Sunday night, and she obviously felt super bad about waking us all up and I was thinking of making cookies or something and bringing them over as a nice-neighbor thing
but I got home today and there was a little thank-you card tied to my doorknob with brownies from her saying sorry???
my cookie/introduction plans have been dashed but, like, these are the kind of problems I want to have
Why was Shrek’s soundtrack so incredible like who sat down and decided that a movie about an ogre would have a beautiful Rufus Wainwright ballad followed by a Smash Mouth/Eddie Murphy cover of I’m A Believer and how can I thank them
