#skit rates stuff

[skitariiposting]

I asked a while ago about how to come up with colour schemes, and i found your advice really useful - so wanted to share the new scheme :)

The forgeworld of Chaemea II has a focus on the production of various chemicals, particularly in the rediscovery of making Phosphex. The entire world has a thick purple smog from millenia of chemical manufacture, hence the purple robes.

Ooh! That came out great! I'm glad my advice was able to influence it :D

I love the world building of the rediscovery of Phosphex, very cool! One of my favorite plot lines involving admech rediscovering things is Darktide's Moebian Steel storyline, and the rediscovery and reactivation of the admech factories to produce it. Its compounded by the urgency of racing against the Nurgle forces to secure it before they can.

I like the idea of Admech constantly forgetting, then rediscovering, then forgetting, then rediscovering techniques and technologies over and over; it really speaks to the dark age of technology they're trying to brute force their way out of in the 41st millennium.

Narrative motifs aside, your paint job is really good, nicely done! Your color choices are well placed, the little red wire is very cleanly executed, and the metallics look great :)

The Object Source Lighting on the eyes is always a cool addition - if you wanted to go the extra mile, I recommend a little dot of a slightly lighter version of the color the glow is, (green in for this one of course,) in the middle of the OSL. You certainly don't have to, this is perfect for table ready as is. Honestly, glowing eyes, or eyes in general, are typically my least favorite part to paint on minis because of how small they are, but I do think that little lighter color in the middle does help to sell the effect a bit more.

10/10 fantastic story, fantastic urpple, very good

Excerpt from "Here With Me - The Pros and Cons, Part One."

“Really is maddening that… Despite being surrounded by so many people and none of them, not one person, went to help or even come to ask if you’re okay…”

“Oh, I did notice that, yeah,�� you responded while looking around you, a small little offended glare in place. “Welcome to America, I guess. Bunch of rude fuckers. People’s phones would be out, recording my death and no doubt, I’d be all over everyone’s for you page via TikTok and so not in the way that would be welcomed.”

A light scoff left his lips, “Is there any other way on TikTok? I mean…” His shoulders raise in a shrug, “I dunno, I’m not on it, but it doesn’t seem quite appealing, does it?”

It was said so innocently, so casually, your lips stretching into a smile and eyes flickering with amusement. You could have fun with this, his statement sounding so… Almost boomer of him, despite the young age in comparison to actual boomers. Which only brought on further amusement in your eyes. “Not a fan?” starting off casually. Trying to ascertain how bad this could be.

“Well…” he started, brows raised a bit as his hand reached for the back of his head, scratching his neck. “Not that I ventured much into it, but…” He gave a shrug, “It’s just dances, isn’t it? Like I said. Not very appealing.”

You couldn’t help it. The roll of your eyes came immediately as did the laugh from your lips. “Oh, God, it is not all dancing. There’s so much more to it, it’s all sorts of things. All sorts of content from all kinds of creators. Actors doing skits, some they wrote, some they didn’t, or even just jumping on a trend that showcases their acting skills or recreations of famous scenes from movies, shows… Their interpretation of it, even if it’s lip synching, it’s them. Musicians showcasing their music by either remixing,” You paused a moment, raising your brows, letting out a soft laugh. “…which you know a lot about remixes, I’m sure…”

He gave a deep hum, giving a nod, “Yeah, yeah, more than I care for, admittedly…”

“Right, well, there’s that and singing, performing, either putting out a song or performing it live. Editors, doing video edits of either original material or… Or even video edits of their favorite shows, movies, actors… Artists? Speed drawing videos showing their skills and how a sketch turns to an actual fucking piece of art. Because not all artists can get their work in a gallery, but they can post a video on a platform that will literally show up on people’s screens,” a soft laugh escaping, and you saw how he smiled, tilting his head and looking at you as you spoke. “And then there’s cooking ��� you’re a foodie, right?”

“I…” he started, his smile growing as he gave a nod. “Yeah, yeah, I… I consider myself a foodie, sure. That’s on TikTok as well?”

Lips stretched across your face as you gave an earnest nod, “Yes. The good and the bad. Cooking food, sharing recipes, rating dishes or restaurants—shops, like… It’s such a tool for small businesses and in this fucked up economy, it’s so needed. And...” You hesitated a moment, before giving in to a reluctant nod, “It’s helped writers as well. Promoting their books, sharing their writing, connecting with readers and… You know, that stuff. And aside from content creators, the art of it, there’s simply fans of all of it, discussing all of it, connecting with others discussing it. I don’t know if you’ve considered that part but…”

You let out a sigh, “Whether you grew up having to hide just things you like or never really recovering from the isolation we all felt during the start of the pandemic…”

Shaking your head, “Connecting with others over things you love, or just even things or people you like… Without judgement, it’s so important. Also serving to just… Y’know, give yourself a voice. Not just about entertainment but… Just life and how it can knock you down. Pick you up. The fucked-up parts that traditional media is just never going to give you a chance to scream at the world, people on the app do. They’re given that chance, and they take it, and it’s great. And if you’re feeling down, there’s people that use the platform to pick you right up.”

Tilting his head, a bit, the corner of his lip let out a smirk, “So… Definitely not just dancing then?”

You laughed, shaking your head, “No, no, Mr. Quinn, not just dancing. And the fact that people are so quick to just boil it down to just dancing is… Not only ridiculous but fucking reductive. Yeah, it has some big downsides to it. Like any other form of social media, there’s toxicity and negative impacts and even people manipulating other people. A narrative that doesn’t align with the truth, but then —”

“That…is most social media.” His nose scrunched a bit, “Well… In the name of all transparency… Not just social media, but… Traditional media as well. Interviews and misquotes running amuck… I guess it’s not any better or worse.” His lips nudge to the side as his shoulders give in to a shrug. “I suppose I shouldn’t have downplayed it, especially since I didn’t know much about it… Until now, of course.”

Since @laindir mentioned something about Ratatouille!Dezel I decided to look up Gameplay Numbers for Snack Preparation.

First five rows are for failures. Not including those failures, there are 35 snacks that can be prepared. Numbers indicate the probabilities out of 100, so they are in percent essentially.

In terms of failure rate, Dezel cannot fail at all (0%), while Edna is most likely to fail (33%). The rank for failure rate is Edna (33%) > Alisha (17%) > Sorey (16%) = Rose (16%) > Mikleo (10%) > Zaveid (4%) > Lailah (3%) > Dezel (0%).

Not counting the failure stuff, Mikleo can make everything, while Edna can make the least (she can only make 14 snacks). The rank goes like Mikleo (35) > Dezel (32) > Lailah (31) > Zaveid (29) > Sorey (27) = Alisha (27) = Rose (27) > Edna (14).

Sorey and Rose might seem like they share similar stats here, but I think Rose might slightly be better at this since she has the highest chance (7%) of making the best snack in the game, Marron Glacé. Out of the humans (who all seem to be bad at this), Rose actually might be the best cook, despite trying to do so with abacus.

If we look at their specialties (by seeing which snacks have the highest possibility for each character)...

Sorey: Pear Compote (10%)

Alisha: Strawberry Waffle (12%)

Rose: Baumkuchen (10%)

Mikleo: Fruit Frappé (7%), Raspberry Mousse (7%)

Lailah: Strawberry Shortcake (10%)

Edna: Chocolate Rusk (12%), Palmier (12%)

Dezel: Baumkuchen (8%)

Zaveid: Grape Mille-Feuille (10%)

As seen from Sorey, specialty doesn't necessarily indicate favorite food. Here are some interesting tidbits:

Sorey can make his favorite, Soft-Serve Ice Cream, but out of the ones he can make, it has the lowest chance of happening (1%). I suppose that's because his favorite has to be specifically made by Mikleo (Perfect Guide's words, not mine), which has a 5% chance of happening, just below his specialties and Ice Pop. It's just when push comes to shove, like when Mikleo suddenly can't make it for him, he will make Soft-Serve Ice Cream himself... while crying.

Dezel and Rose share the same specialty. Makes you think.

Also, there's a skit where it's said that the way Dezel bakes Madeleines is similar to how Rose does it. The chances for Madeleines are 4% for Dezel and 2% for Rose.

You can definitely see from what they can make and their specialties that the seraphim's elements definitely have something to do with the snack preparation here, as mentioned in a skit.

And that's the useless Zesty knowledge of the day.

Yeah, Ayo got into trouble this year when she hosted SNL and the musical guest was JLo and people started pulling out all the stuff she had done shitting on JLo. They even had her do a sketch apologizing for posting hurtful and hating stuff online. She should have at least asked to host with a different musical guest so it wouldn't get awkward

https://youtu.be/v47uE_wrSYo?si=_TgC6ZXpLX-kNOeB

Ohhhhh!!! THAT'S what that skit was about!! 😅

I was wondering why it was on there. It def seemed very PERSONAL. 👀 I was lost during that entire skit, but it def seemed like an inside joke.

I did not realize she had made some hate online about JLo. 👀 What did JLo do to her lol? 😅

I didn't fully understand it, but now I get it.

I'm wondering if SNL even deliberately had them on the same night in order to get more ratings too. 👀

They obviously must have known about the past history with her and JLo if they had her do an entire skit referencing it. 🥴

Very very interesting 🤔

Fluffy February Day 6:  Stretch

Rating: PG

Fandom: SWTOR

Time:  3676 BBY/23 BTC

Pairing: Jace Malcom/Satele Shan, unrequited

Words:  1289

~~

“So… the Force doesn’t make all that acrobatic stuff possible by itself?” Jace asked.  “Like, if I was a Jedi, I’d have to be able to do a backflip anyway?”

Satele shook her head as she continued to limber up for her morning routine.  “Not quite.  Yes, you do have to stay fit and maintain some physical prowess, but the Force helps you defy gravity for a little longer, have just a bit more endurance in a sprint, a little more strength in your swing.  Think of it as an extra set of hands or guidance.”

Jace sat on a bench just a few feet away from Satele’s gymnastic mat.  “But it’s 100% the Force when Jedi lift stuff, right?  It’s not like ‘bro, you gotta lift this much on the bench or you’ll drop that rock on your foot,’ right?”

Satele’s laugh jingled in his ear, like the tiny bell on top of an old-fashioned swinging door.  “Yes, that is more rooted in the person’s discipline and concentration in the Force.  Word to the wise, all the same : don’t put bets against Jedi in benchpressing competitions.”

“Like I’m betting against the Jedi for anything.”  Jace sipped his caf as he watched Satele finish up her stretches.  “You really put yourself through the paces.  I hurried over here because I thought you’d run through warm-ups and be swinging your dualsaber in minutes, and if I sat around eating my waffles, you’d be done.”

Satele tossed her braid over her shoulder as she stood up.  “Believe it or not, Jace, Jedi are mortals.  We get charley horses too!”

Just as Jace sputtered into his coffee – because hearing prim Satele say ‘charley horse’ was somehow hysterically funny to him – Satele launched into her routine, activating her dual saber as she vaulted into the air.  

Stars, she could fly.

At the time he’d met her over Korriban, he hadn’t had a lot of time to watch her – he knew what she and her master had been doing was beyond his imagining.  Watching her practice her katas was far lower stakes but no less amazing, here on Coruscant.

Over the last five years, since… everything… started, Jace and Satele had been pretty faithful pen pals (in a way; neither of them used pen, praise be the Holonet).  Sometimes it took awhile: she had to go through her trials with a new master, he ended up on a cereal box because it was good for recruitment and he was apparently cute enough, then she and Dar’Nala (her new master) had been sent around the galaxy on diplomatic service.  Jace understood the logic: Satele had gotten to know the battle side of the Jedi Order a lot sooner than she did the peacekeeper end.  

Then Jace got promoted and was sent off to officer school – who’d’ve thunk it, a kid form Bacaria like him? That was almost as impressive as the cereal box, according to Kal.

Kal would be a higher rank and would probably have his own cereal box if he wasn’t so dead-set on being a maverick and a joker.  He just had to defy authority in some way, even if it was just wearing non-regulation socks.  And not taking every double-dog dare his stupid company threw out there.

So, five years into this war with the Sith, and here were Satele Shan and Jace Malcom, hanging out. Like normal people.  Well, if normal people could swing a dualsaber and do backflips at the same time, Jace supposed, as he watched her.  As if they weren’t the two kids who brought news of Korriban to the galaxy.  It was a weird way to start a friendship.

Jace was coming to a pretty rapid conclusion though.  He didn’t want it just to be a friendship.

Satele was the most amazing woman he’d ever met, and he’d covered a lot of planets since he first met her.

Scratch that from the pitch; that sounded way raunchier than he thought it would.  And yeah, he’d gone out with other women but not that many.  He didn’t know every—

Ok, this whole ‘I think we should be more than friends’ skit he’d mapped out needed about fifteen more drafts before he tried it live with her.  He didn’t want it to sound like he was infatuated (he totally was), and he didn’t want it to sound like he didn’t have enough experience to make the comparison (he did), but he also didn’t want it to sound like ‘out of the hundreds of women’ (which was NOT the case; Kal would rat him out to his mother for not respecting women or himself, and then there’d be holy wrath over the holocomm).

His chain of thought broke off as Satele nailed her landing at the edge of the mat, then detached her dualsaber into two parts, so now she wielded one shorter lightsaber in each hand. He watched as she went through the movements, fighting an invisible foe –

And great galaxies, she was fierce.   There was some sort of channeled rage in her, something that might have darkened another’s soul… but instead, she pushed it out and away from her heart, throwing it into her efforts against foes, for the Jedi, for the Republic, for the Light --!

…Most of all, nobody Jace had tried to date had understood what his service meant to him. They thought it was a ‘do your time, and then do what you really want to do.’  Get that veteran’s discount.  Get a leg up in hiring.

This was what Jace wanted to do.  He wanted to be career military.  It made him happier than grunting it out on Bacaria, where physical labor with zero intellectual engagement was still a top feature of any career there.  He didn’t want to get into a rat race or be once of those inspirational talk jackasses.  Credits wouldn’t make him happy.  This would.

And Satele – as devoted to the Jedi Order as she was – would get that.  And…

He really had to draft this next part out, maybe thirty times, and wait another five years, but… he was pretty sure he could marry her if she promised to pick the Order and the Republic over him no matter what, if it came down to it.  It would sting but… valid?  

But then there was the whole “I have aspirations for having my own Huttball team, composed entirely of our children (adopted and biological)” thing he had going on.  He and Kal were brothers and it was fine, but…

Ok, scratch that entire paragraph until Satele married him.  They could talk about it then, because, well, if she didn’t/couldn’t/wouldn’t have kids… he still wanted to be with her.  

Because she understood duty and a calling.  This wasn’t killing time.  This was life, period.  And she understood what it was like to change the galaxy by the news they brought. What it was like to go from 18-year-old dumbass (well, maybe Satele was never a dumbass like he was, but whatever the Satele equivalent was) to galactic celebrity to the leader of tomorrow to... whatever was next for them.  If they lived that long.

It might not last.  It might not work as well as he imagined it. But Jace wanted to give it a shot, to say ‘we tried.’

For now, all he said was “Water?” and offered her a bottle when she walked over to the bench, looking radiant (or sweaty. But to Jace, radiant).

[theknightmarket]

I did a tier list of the Markiplier Egos, so I thought I’d share it here – and, yes, perhaps some of these ratings indicate who I like to write, sue me. So, bottom to top, here it is:

Actor: Super Hell

         I goddamn hate Actor, as you could probably figure out. He’s a prissy bitch, who deserved everything that came to him. Okay, that might’ve been a bit of an exaggeration, but Jesus Christ do I hate him, mainly for causing Damien’s death, plus everything else, but mainly that. He deserves less than Super Hell, but that is the bottom of the barrel.

E-Boy Mark: F

         Reminded me too much of my boy Bing, and I did Not like it. Plus, I have the same tiger pattern on one of my jackets, and I did not want to be associated with this E-Boy. So, F tier.

Ed Edgar: F

         I hate babies. Simple as that. Props for being a cowboy aesthetic, but that mustache knocked him back down into F tier.

Derek Derekson: F

         Need I say anything? He’s abusive and a bitch, and I care too much about my baby Eric to put him any higher. I would put him lower, but Super Hell is reserved for Actor. F.

Silver Shephard: E

         I haven’t seen anything about him, except for the skit with all the other egos, in which I also did not see much. Cool costume, but no clue. E.

Dr. Iplier: E

         Again, not much. To be honest, both of the Egos in the E tier are ones I haven’t seen much of but know about. Hence, the doctor is here. Nice catchphrase, E tier.

Yandereiplier: D

         The animation is cool, I’ve always liked horror-blood elements, and the pictures of Yandere have the red hair, which I am a fan of. However, the game itself is a point down, and he is only for the sim, so D tier.

King of the Squirrels: D

         A classic start to the Ego train, so points given, but points taken away because I am not a huge fan of peanut butter. Squirrels I love, though, so again. Hence, D tier.

Bill: C

         Okay, so I haven’t seen the video he comes from actually, but I did see one clip of him saying ‘Oh, honey, no’ and, boy, did I feel flustered, and I don’t even know why! It was just weirdly sweet and reflects the kinda stuff you see in my S tiered Egos. But, alas, he’s not all that common in videos, so C.

Bim Trimmer: C

         I don’t know either, man, he’s just a funny guy. The image I have for him is so stupid, and he’s Bim Trimmer??? C’mon. C tier.

The Colonel: C

         Being separate from Wilford, he’s kinda lacking in substance compared to him, but I get it. Cuckolded a dude, which isn’t a great start, but it’s Actor, so I don’t care. Says ‘bully’, which is fun, but he does kill the viewer, so points off for him, putting him in C.

Google(s): C

         Might be influenced by my having a fic in the works for him, but I am also a sucker for AI, android stuff. Plus, the fanart I see for him is always cute. Him being rude to Bing takes him down a notch, though, so C.

Heehoo: C

         The concept of this guy is so funny to me – like, Jesus Christ, the Markiplier runs into the wild, completely naked, save for maybe shoes, of all things, and is fine??? The long hair pushes it over D, but the lack of a voice keeps him in C.

The Nightguard: C

         It’s mainly for the musical itself, and that one moment when he leans in and says ‘I killed a guy’ because obviously. Not to mention it’s Mark singing. However, this one can be excluded from being an ego because it is basing off of a pre-established character. So, C tier.

Captain Magnum: C

         I haven’t gone through his ending yet in AHWM (sue me, I got Yancy first), but I do love pirates ;) but I don’t love beards. Personal preference, it just takes away from the face. Basically, the aesthetic alone brings it into C tier.

Annus: B

         Now, I did watch, uh, [redacted] – catch my favorite video being the A.I generated basically fanfictions – and I loved the whole concept of it! The ending, especially during covid, kinda helped me get used to death and the idea of having to die in the end. However, some of this does not extend to the ego of Annus. I feel like there was a lot more they could have done with both Annus and Unus, but I understand that most of the audience would not have wanted it to be fully cryptid and ARG-esque, so B is both the lowest and highest I can go with him. I do love suits, though. 

Eric Derekson: B

         I have seen next to nothing about this boy! And I love him :D! He’s just so cute in everything I’ve seen and read. Solid B tier for the cute side, anyway. 

The Jims: B

         Honestly, it’s a goof ego, and I like that. The stupid movements and the little side bit about WKM made me happy after the sad events, and I saw them in Space, so I’m happy to put them at B, as a collective, of course.

Monster Gulch Mark: B

         I’m a sucker for apocalypses, man. The casual murder plot caught my eye, and then the second song was a banger, too. I was super disappointed when nothing ever came out from Monster Gulch again, and I appreciate the running water thing, if you know what I mean by that. So, for both Mark in this and the musical in general, B tier.

God of Night: B

         Dope aesthetic and I am a sucker for deity-stuff. However, I do not have the attention span to watch a 3+ hour video where he is not in all of it, and was, maybe, recorded without a hard script? I don’t know, but I know I should watch it considering I have a fic queued for him. Cool concept, but I can’t watch so much of that in one go. B tier.

Noir: A

         You remember that I said I love suits, right? Well, this guy, in a disheveled suit, the noir aesthetic – one that I loved since I saw Into the Spider-Verse – and the voice over??? A tier, and I will take no comments. Also, there’s something to be said about how the lower tiers tend to have the cocky-know-it-all egos, and the higher tiers are soft guys. This, the A tier, is a weird exception.

Murdock: A

         No. 1, the murder – no. 2, the vibe – no. 3, the outfit! The moment I saw Murdock, I had to put the screen down and go for a walk. You’ve seen this man, you understand what I mean. A tier, for everything he’s involved in.

Dark: A

         This is probably lower than a lot of people would put him, and I’m still debating putting him higher, but A tier is the least I will go. Again, there’s the suit, plus, I’m a fan of the glitchy, multi-emotion thing he has going on. However, as many of you will remember, he did shove the viewer into a mirror and steal their body. Not great on his part, but he is against Actor, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Hence, A tier, plus he does stage himself sexily on that desk, so…

Engineer: A

         This guy is plain cute. He’s devoted, he’s hard-working, he appreciates the aesthetics! He really should be in A+ tier, considering I have a sticker of him, too, except for one tiny snag. Actor. He is the source of all my trouble and complicates things in the theory sense. Is Engineer actually Actor? We don’t know, and I don’t like to think I would put anyone related to Actor in A+. So, sorry, my dear boy, he has to be in A tier.

Bing: A+

         If you’ve seen my other posts, you may already understand why he’s here, but I will reiterate for every who doesn’t know. I don’t know what it is, but the dumb, skateboarder-bro, with a heart of gold is a thing I love. The glasses are cool, the orange I adore, and an android? C’mon, I can’t put him anywhere but A+. (I also have a sticker of him on the laptop I am currently writing this on)

Host: A+

         I had to go searching for Host after the sketch with all of the egos in it, and, boy, was I overjoyed to find him. The blind-fold and narrator bit, and a couple of fics I’ve read influenced this decision. A+ tier, but it’s a controversial one. (Another that I have a sticker of)

Wilford: A+

         Yeah, this is just where he belongs. S tier is reserved for two egos here, and so Wilford is a banger in A+ tier. The whole fruity-bisexual-timelord thing is amazing, and, as far as character design goes, oof, the fluffy hair, slightly unbuttoned shirt? I am swooning. A+ tier. (Also, a sticker)

Illinois: A+

         This guy has two belts. What a dude. And the flirty thing I appreciate, the whip cracks, as well. Him walking backwards through a bunch of traps is pique douche, but in an oh-my-god-he’s-going-to-get-himself-killed-better-help-him kind of way. Like pulling a drowning dog out of a pool and them shaking off. A+.

Can you guys guess who’s at the top of this list? If you can’t, lemme tell you. 

Damien: S

         Damien is my comfort character, and that sucks because – spoilers – he is dead. I forgive him for shoving the viewer into a mirror, solely for his adorable personality and all of the fics people have for him prior to poker night. The ‘little monster’ nickname has me squealing every time I hear it, and I could fully write an essay on his character. Fuck Actor for killing him, and fuck anyone who doesn’t think he’s amazing. Solid S tier, no questions. 

Yancy: S

         Objectively the best character. He was my first ending in AHWM, I love his song, he applied for parole??? Look at that man, listen to him talk – the accent omg – and tell me, genuinely, that you would not do anything for him. Look me in the eyes and tell me that he isn’t the light of your life. ‘Free as a buird’ – gods, he’s adorable, and a sticker that I have on the inside of my laptop, to boot!

And that’s it! Feel free to reblog or send me an ask telling me your opinion, but know that I will fight you if you disagree on my S tiers :D

Have a good day everyone!

“I have to dress my part—I can’t wear my suit to everything, after all!” Did Volkner not know about the whole skit...? Ah, well, probably not. Stuff like this didn’t interest him, right?

“Most importantly, I had to match my dog.” Look at him. Look at Bernard. He’s a beautiful Stoutland! Why wouldn’t he not match his pupper! How dare. “And in any case, I am smarter than I look! Just like you,” he smiles. A nice, pleasant PR smile.

Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! #11: “Vacation” | November 19, 2007 - 12:15AM | S02E01

I’ve got the runs, but what else is new? So, if I do a very bad job writing about this episode, that is why, and no other reason. Also, I went very long with this one, so I might not edit this one with my usual care. That’s because I’d rather return to my 90′s SNL rewatch I’ve secretly been doing. Shhh! It’s a secret!

Season two! If I recall correctly, this was the first ten-episode batch of a 30 episode order from Adult Swim. Tim & Eric churned these puppies out somewhat quickly compared to other Adult Swim shows. There was usually only a few months between seasons. Seasons 1-4 aired at a rate of roughly one-and-a-half seasons per year. It was a good time to be a fan of Tim & Eric. Usually. 

I do think season one was the strongest and most consistent of Awesome Show seasons, and that seasons 2-4 in particular were a spotty and weaker overall. I remember my friends and I would usually pick the episodes apart afterwards and these bull sessions were markedly more grievance-based than they were during season one. This episode in particular had a post-classic sheen on it. It didn’t feel very special at all, and sorta let me down.

I was living with a friend Humboldt County, CA who was also a massive Tim & Eric fan. We had indoctrinated a few coworkers into the world of Tim & Eric and they were less-enthusiastic than us, but still liked it. I remember we wrangled a few of these people to have a watch party for the season premiere. I think we watched a few season one episodes beforehand. Also: we had digital cable, which was sort of a precursor to HD television. This meant we had the East coast feed, netting us the premiere three hours early. Our guests got chatty as the live episode was starting and I remember having to sheepishly shush them, which set a weird tone in the room for the rest of the episode. It was humbling when a just-okay episode of Awesome Show played for all of us. It probably caused those people to renounce their fandom.

The episode starts with a resolution to the cliffhanger featuring Casey and his brother, which is basically that the van explodes for literally no reason. This is accomplished via some great miniatures. It’s a fun sequence, and I still think it’s funny to basically Alien³ your season cliffhanger as a “fuck you” to your audience. Seeing it in the wake of getting shushed by a late-in-life virgin who wouldn’t put the TiVo in the main room because he wanted it in his bedroom for making custom DVD-Rs with (meaning I couldn’t simply pause and rewind it, because it was airing live and I had no device to do that with), it may have come off as more abrasive than funny.

This one features a wraparound segment with Eric turning his back on Tim to become best-friends with a cool guy named Raz. Raz resembles Rob Zombie-cum-Beach Bum, and I remember it being a common misconception that this actually was Rob Zombie. Either it’s that, or I am a huge shithead who briefly thought this was the case. The resulting music video has okay moments, but it falls a little flat. It’s not that funny to ironically celebrate tacky fashion, which is ultimately all this is. Making fun of corporate eateries... this is pretty staid stuff on this show.

Also: the guy who played Raz: I remember finding the guy’s actual Youtube page or something, and he did a lot of amateur comedy skits and stuff. He seemed like a good dude, a real sweetheart, but the fact that he was a guy who was sorta trying to be funny sorta painted his performance in a negative light. I think he does fine, but there’s a little moment at the end where it’s just this take to the camera he does where he looks mildly dazed. It’s weirdly contrived. I mean weirdly like, it’s weird that I feel this way, I think, and I am afraid of being judged for it by girls. Like a girl is going to furrow her brow at me and say “why do you care so much about this?” 

Also I think the moment where it cuts out to Tim & Eric in the studio while the music video is playing, and the music gets all tinny as if it’s being recorded on set out of the TV is too jokey in a John Landis sorta way. I feel like Frank Oz is going to show up in an on-camera role, and I don’t like that feeling. It’s deadly.

Okay: So maybe this is nasty of me, but because I’ve already got bones to pick here, I am now painting the entire write-up that way. The Poop Tube? Uh, funny commercial, but don’t you think it’s a little much to show some of the poopoo dribbling down the kid’s face when he’s using the poop tube for kids?? Okay you know what, I’m sorry. I’m sorry I’m doing this. This is a very funny sketch, and I like it. The idea of needing to stand while shitting in order to not diminish your status as a man (god’s gender), is great. The actor for this is great. Do you know who he is? He was Francis, from Pee Wee’s Big Adventure! You’ll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman! 

Okay, even though I consider this a disappointing episode, and sorta weak, there’s stuff in it I really, really like. Stuff I quote constantly, to this day. Such as, “Trick My Trick”, in which Bob plays a magician who does a crazy magic trick made out of largely-improvised-seeming act-outs augmented with comically-rudimentary video-editing effects. This sketch has great moments, like the way Bob pronounces “boos” with an unnecessary “y” sound. Such a dumb affectation. One of my favorite jokes of all time, honestly. 

There’s a Casey Tatum and his brother song, with the mention from Uncle Muscles that Casey Tatum is dead, and that they are showing one of his great performances from the archives. In fact, the show held onto this bit of continuity, and whenever they did a Casey and his Brother sketch they’d always make a point to let you know this was a posthumous appearance. They only broke this rule when they produced an episode that was cobbled together from a live-show. The live shows they do are typically not seen as “canon”, and have sketches that use alternate continuity from what’s seen on television. I have another example of this, but I would rather wait until we get to that episode. Also, I don’t think we should be talking about “canon” when it comes to this show, really. It’s just interesting to observe the rules that creatives have. I think. My main point is that Tim & Eric, for being described as “random”, sure liked to pretend character development and change was important on their show.

James Quall gets his first big spotlight on the show. I remember not being prepared for James Quall. He’s a truly baffling man. A maniac with a very loud, schmucky voice. He’s naturally hilarious, it almost doesn’t matter what comes out of his mouth. His presence is pure comedy, and that’s the nicest way I can say it. This sketch is a commercial for the best of James Quall, who performs various celebrity impressions that all bafflingly include references to “Spaghetti and Meatballs”. This was a sleeper hit for the episode, and to this day I still sometimes slip a Spaghetti and Meatballs into my own bad celebrity impressions. I recently bowled over the discord chat by reciting Mike Judge’s recitations of “It doesn’t get any better than this” as various Beavis and Butt-head characters, but said Spaghetti and Meatballs instead.*

Though I damn it with faint praise, this episode succeeds in giving us some truly wonderful gifts. May I too one day have something to offer someone!!! *I might be lying about this, either the fact that it happened, or that it was me who said it and not another friend, or that they laughed when it happened. But it’s a good idea and I want you to know about it, even if it’s only a theory

What did you think of the whole all star weekend btw?

Honestly I don't really know - I think parts of it were fun, but some parts of it felt very poorly thought out/executed to me. I think my favorite part was the dunk tank, because they all looked ridiculous in shorts t-shirts flipflops and hockey gloves. I cringed through the entire shot competition thing where they had to act out a skit or bit (Except Ovi's son, that part was cute), and the goalie game was....weird.

But the actual games this afternoon were pretty fun, even though the broadcast I was watching didn't show the FOB concert nor did they show any of the replays for the last 5 minutes of the final game which made seeing any of the plays VERY hard.

Overall, my rating is - Meh. I'd watch it again, but I would definitely be hoping that it be better than this was.

(Also: I'M SO UPSET THAT MATTY GOT HURT I WAS SO EXCITED TO SEE HIM PLAY AND STUFF MAN)

Ok so my bf’s back is a bit better so we went to watch Deadpool & Wolverine (side note: I missed both Challengers and KoK in theaters between his health stuff and my health stuff so that sucks because I really actively want to watch both, but anyhow that’s a story for another day).

We actually watched Deadpool and Deadpool 2 over the weekend to get all pumped for it - we got super pumped btw like maximum effort of pumped - and went today while I was getting my car tires changed and wheels aligned and stuff because I’ve been driving a lot lately and I’m kinda bad at taking care of my car and the tire shop is right by a mall. So off we went and we got Nando’s and then to the movie. We were super fucking excited after yk 1.5 months mostly not doing anything fun 😂💀

Long backstory to us watching this film and part of why it’s so long is I’m… really disappointed? So I have more to say about the cheeky Nando’s than I do about the movie.

Firstly, it was a bit too fan servicey for my taste (I know that’s the point but it just didn’t hit that hard for me). Secondly, the jokes became repetitive for me. My bf described it as akin to when an SNL skit goes on a bit too long yk and it sorta ruins it? Like when it’s a fun premise and the actors are doing a great job but it lasts a touch too long and by the end of it you’re like “urgh they could’ve cut this a bit and then it would’ve been top tier.” I don’t think D&W should’ve been shorter but I think they needed a bigger variety of jokes/bits because it kinda kept being the same thing? Finally, I found the plot needlessly confusing and not especially interesting. Again, personally I’m not enjoying the TVA stuff very much, although I usually like time traveling and alternate universes and shit like that but idk man the TVA is still underdeveloped as a concept to me. Maybe I’d get it more if I watched the Loki show but I tried and really didn’t enjoy that either. I don’t really understand what Marvel’s rules for time/multiverses are right now in the franchise as a whole and I get this sense that THEY don’t fully either. I spent a fair amount of time confused in this movie and idk man I’m not like a stupid person generally speaking but to me this was confusing. Not in a “they wanted to make it confusing and deep” way, which I might have liked, but in an “I don’t think the writers fully know what’s going on” way. Like idk man.

I did really enjoy the humor (it was just repetitive for my taste), I enjoyed majority of the cameos, the soundtrack was cool, the fight sequences were fun to watch, I dug the VFX and the 3D was super well done.

I would rate it 6/10 and I feel I’m unlikely to rewatch it. I don’t regret watching it because it was still a fun afternoon but I really did have much higher expectations and I do feel disappointed.

What did people who watched think?

Ok this request was from one of my online Friends, she requested one of my own OCs! A very popular one at that. FLASH/FELIX!

They wanted an x reader prompt with a date. This is an in general thing so I'll make it somewhat mostly in a modern setting.

I hope this would be a good mini fic!

FLASH/FELIX X READER: DATE NIGHT

Warnings/rating: no nasty, flirting, Flash/Felix being bold as usual. Still trying to be gentleman-like. (Some mentions of blood but not actually blood n stuff)

You're on a date with a gender fluid person who is also a dragon person and a royal in their universe. Goes by either or but mostly shape shifts into either gender too. (Also you can imagine yourself as any other race in my story or just some sort of DND races too lol. You can be human too)

★★★★★

It's a quiet night upon the harbor of the Kingdom of Yoitz. You and your date, Flash, ride in on their bike to go to dinner. You were on basically a set up date/Tinder date with this dapper young person. She treats you to a lavish dinner. You think that this will be normal, possibly minimal drinking as well since she drove you here on the bike. Their features were sharp yet soft and the beaming gaze of their hooded gaze made Flash look fierce like a dragon.

Once inside the lavish yet simple restaurant, Flash tries to be polite and help you into your seat and used proper manners when addressing the waiter for drinks but something seemed out of place when you got your food as well.

"is something wrong?" You tilted your head.

"Yeah yeah everything's fine, just...never been one for these types of dates. Don't worry I'm still paying" Flash sighed.

"oh I'm not worried about paying or anything. Your profile seemed to be more...wild and party-like." You questioned.

"Yeah but my sisters insisted I'd be more gentleman-like especially on a first date. I've always been the more bold kind but never one for feelings half the time." Flash rubbed the back of their neck.

"why don't we go to a club or something after dinner, just try not to get wasted. It's up to you" you suggested. You've been to bars and concerts before but not as often as you think they've been to.

"I'll think about it over dinner, can't think on a empty stomach" Flash winked. "Maybe I might surprise you if we do go"

You chuckled and smiled as the drinks and dinners you ordered arrived. When dinner was done and you thank for the meal. Flash pulls up on their bike and you get on. Flash chuckled as you held on tightly with the spare helmet over your head. You two soon rode up to a performance bar club. It was well known to host famous people from all over the world. Actors, singers, band groups, etc came here to have a good time.

"Why are we here? This is an expensive and popular place..." You questioned.

"trust me with this, if you wanna see the real me like you wanted, then this is the place" Flash parked the bike in a special parking spot and the bike was protected with a spell. They lead you to the VIP lounge in full view of the stage as a band group performed for the hour or so they were there.

"I'm gonna go get dressed, you watch over the balcony. I'm gonna rock the house and shake it to the core" Flash smirked a toothy grin before disappearing.

You sighed and thought to yourself what could possibly be going on. The band soon finished up their skit before a familiar emblem showed up on the monitors. The Black Fangs. It was one of your favorite bands. Then a dragon roar echoed in the club and everyone cheered as smoke and fire filled the stage. Then a male voice.

"Alright your drunken party goers! Who's ready to rock the house with Crimson Death?" The male voice spoke like velvet with a hit of a gruff undertone. Everyone is yelling and cheering the name Felix as he takes off his shirt and begins to sing.

"it can't be...did she..." You smiled with excitement as the song began to play.

"Thank you everyone! That was a demo of our upcoming song called "Burning Dreams". Make sure to watch out for the music video coming out soon!" Felix smirked and looked up at the balcony and winked.

You were taken aback until you saw the tattoo, the hand part looked exactly like the tattoos Flash had. What was going on you didn't know. You were curious then when Felix came through the door with the same shirt Flash was wearing you were confused.

"so? How did I do?" Felix chuckled.

"YOU'RE CRIMSON DEATH?!" You smiled brightly.

"that I am, I can shape shift into these forms or into other people, but I like to be in this form a lot. Makes me feel tall" he smirked

You smiled with a blush, "can I have...your autograph...your music is amazing and unique"

"sure, where should I sign?" He pulled out a sharpie.

You raised your sleeve and pointed to your arm. He signed it with a hum and added a little heart under it.

"it'll be awesome if you get that tattooed, make this little date worth it." Felix said in a smooth tone.

You blushed, "I'll think about it, but I'll be sure to send evidence"

"you better" Felix smirked before "or I'd charge double for that"

You chuckled as he went back to perform some more after a quick break and a few drinks. When the night ended and it was well after midnight. He drove you home that was a bit outside the main city. You waved goodbye from your doorstep and went inside. After a few minutes you heard revving and tired squealing. You look outside your upstairs window to see Felix doing donuts and turns to make a heart on the road and zoom off back to the city. You didn't know what to make of this date but you knew one thing.

"definitely getting this tattooed..."

(not my gif BUT this does kinda looks like Flash/Felix does it not lol) (it's a character from Tokyo revengers)

In Response To The Christian Horror Film 'Nefarious'...

RATING: ★

Honestly, I'm a conservative Bible-believer and I've heard all of this before. It didn't feel creative at all. It felt like a church-level skit, and in a church, I might have applauded. Overall, it felt like a truly unwatchable film.

The script was lame! They actually tried to sneak in what used to be a funny YouTube meme as if it were something serious? Like on YouTube, there's a running joke in the comment section where someone asks you if you want one of two things, but you want both, so you just say "yes." In the film, the doctor says, "Is hell a physical place or a state of mind?" and the demon just responds, "Yes..." like it was supposed to be dramatic. That annoyed me. At one point, the demon writes a book about the protagonist and the protagonist looks at the book for a total of twelve seconds and says, "There's stuff in here even I don't know about me!" They don't even explain it at all. It's just a rushed scene with bad writing and bad directing. Later, he is literally strangling the protagonist and three police officers come towards him and the demon says "Back up!" and they all do? Since when does a prisoner have authority over police? I know what you're thinking. It's not supernatural. Like, at all. It's not even indicated anywhere that this thing has supernatural powers outside of psychic abilities and now I'm starting to think that light shattering in the trailer actually WAS a coincidence!

There is a sort of reference to the biblical Peter story when Jesus says, "You will deny me thrice." When the demon says, you will kill three people by the end of the day, it feels like a pretty good buildup to something actually happening. But again, it's lazy writing and just so happens the doctor is euthanizing his mother and his wife is having an abortion on the same day? That's the laziest attempt at writing I've ever heard. And why should I care? Oh yeah, it's to tell us that those things are sins.

I actually liked the framing and the underlying premise of a film shot in one room with a psychiatrist and a death-row inmate, but the plot doesn't even make sense! If the demon is trying to get this guy executed, why not just appear sane? That would have made this movie five minutes long. "Hi, I'm Edward. I'm sane. You can kill me now." Doctor says, "Okay, great." Signs the paper. Roll credits!

Yawnfest. I will hear these things from my Pastor, not a DEMON!? It should be illegal to make a movie this predictable. I won't spoil the ending because I don't have to. If you've read the Bible, you know that any time a demon exits one body it enters the other. If you haven't read it, you will hate this movie.

Oh wow, and a HORROR? LOL! Not even close. It's clearly a thriller, so you can change the genre on every streaming and ratings platform there is, because this is nothing like a horror. I thought I was walking into a good horror movie based on the reviews and the poster. Last time I checked, lying was a sin.

This is a movie for Christians who hate movies. I'm surprised they haven't put this on PureFlix... because a lot of movies on PureFlix are exactly like this.
