Priceless Leia meets a Blues Brother and a jerk

Special K: I haven't watched this but plan to. It's only 20 minutes.

<50 minutes passes>

I just watched that Blade Runner video and it's brilliant. Feels a little like The Clock.

<13 hours pass>

b1-66er: Just watched the blade runner mash up. Interesting. Thanks for sending it. 

K: Did it remind you of The Clock at all?

b1: Not really. Too overall thematic. 

I see why you say that, though.

K: Specifically, the scenes where characters from one movie hear things from another.

b1: I have certain expectations from experimental film. 

Yours either doesn't meet them at all, or overwhelms them.

In either case, it doesn't qualify. 

He's interplaying characters. 

It's both the genius of the clip ...

... and the cheat. 

He's gotta be about our age. 

K: I'd guess so.

The radula of an ark

Special K: "SilkyMilk believes it her highest honor is to reflect those same fantasies as sympathetically and soberly as possible; to truly embody a character, even as that character prepares to fuck a giant squid."

b1-66er: It's hard to argue with that. 

K: I wouldn't.

You aren't what you think

Special K: "By next week they'll have enough test kits to check every UCSF patient for #coronavirus. Until now, they were just testing those with  symptoms. And only 4% of those tested positive. 19 out of 20 who thought they had #COVID19, didn't."

How about when you, "need to go home now?"

Special K: One of the weirdest things about this staying at home business is that it doesn't feel all that weird.

b1-66er: That'll be important in the long(er) run. 

Let in the vat

b1-66er: "Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department dissolves mounted patrol unit"

Special K: That's a lot of acid. 🥁 

You dirty bastinado

Special K: "Two groups of governors, one on the East Coast and one on the West

 Coast, announced Monday that they were forming regional working groups to help plan when it would be safe to begin to ease coronavirus-related restrictions to reopen their economies."

b1-66er: Lord grant me the patience. 

K: You are religious.
