On the original DVD for Bring it On, there’s an easter egg in the menu somewhere.

The Easter egg is a 5 second clip of the director saying “congratulations, you found the Easter egg.” That’s it.

The pressure and the lack of creativity.

Everyone truly expects some Hallmark movie perfection, often with minimal effort from them. Pouting like a spoiled child when you don’t do everything just exactly perfectly right. The exact shit that sometime else fetishizes that literally no one else notices. Or the genuine expectation that you have and can spend $2000 to visit, just to sit around and watch TV most of the time you’re there.

All of that packaged up in the same exact bullshit. Never waiver. Never add anything new. Same playlists. Same images. Same movies. 20+ years ago Elf worked its way in through sheer persintence. One new entry. So repetitive and droll.

Finally, I love love love the lights. Because it’s a pagan solstice party after all, lights to brighten the long cold dark nights of winter are simply intuitive. Why do we take down the lights on Jan 3 or 4 and make the next month ugly and miserable? Leave them up until the second full moon of winter. This year that’s Feb 1. Makes sense, yes?

Kart racing. Or dirtbikes. Take your pick.

I’m suggesting the exact opposite.

That we tell stories of drama and tradgedy and greed and irrational decisions when we think that opportunity and resources aren’t limitations. As if those limits prevent normal people from losing their morals.

In reality, it’s just normal human behavior. The desire for wealth and power and greed doesn’t know or depend on how much money you have. We once fought to the death over water and livestock and crops. That hasn’t changed.

Well, so I’m told by a friend lving there who grew up in Kansas City. It’s a whole thing about which BBQ is superior… Long inside joke i guess.

Right, so if OP is a Kiwi asking and not from Alabama, the responses may change, yes?

Unless, of course, Southern BBQ is a thing in NZ? (I know it’s not).

That’s why I asked. knowing more context would get better results.

Sorry, but are you British? It doesn’t fully make sense for your aunt to be some hardcore MAGA person and you’re all “shite” and “tonne.”

Edit: Where is your aunt? That has an impact on possible responses.

Other civilizations? A whole buttload of alien abduction stories center on anal probes and extracting DNA by sexually assaulting people. Many times, with a grey alien in a wig banging a human.

Aliens are horndogs, too!

Also, data.

200 jars of piss on a shelf? Schitzo hoarder.

200 labeled jars of piss with date/time, place collected? That’s a data set waiting for testing.

Yes, but, wouldn’t it actually be more accurate to say a prolonged throat queef?

Vocal folds do actually look less like a sphincter and more like… Uh… Other things

Hey, Monica has has it bad enough. Literally left the country to get therapy.

There’s some South African grocery chains that sold a 3 pack of red, yellow, green bell peppers.

Also, for some reason SA calls traffic lights “robots.” Supposedly, it’s because when traffic cops were replaced by signals, it was a “robotic traffic signal.”

So when you add these two things, you get…
