Lingerers, yes. Perhaps I slightly misused the term.

You know the guy at the party who is the last to leave? He doesn't seem to get the social cues like others, so he stays well beyond what is comfortable. Often people will sense a turning point in the vibe of the party and leave en masse. For some reason he doesn't. Perhaps he wants to ask you something? Or maybe he likes you? Who knows. Now it's getting awkward, but he's still here.

That's kind of what I was thinking of.

Edit: Another literal interpretation that isn't strictly the definition is the idea of the people who "hang on" to an idea and just won't let it go. Hanging on to it well beyond its useful lifespan or relevance.

I do not usually drink the classic versions of either.

So diet Coke > diet Pepsi by a long shot

But Coke Zero = Pepsi Max for flavor although Zero << Max for caffeine content, so it depends on the mood/need at that moment

Actually, it looks like I have several. A few I wasn't sure about. Did you do the one with "Quasi"? I thought so but couldn't remember. I'm sure about these:

I've actually been curious about which clocks are actually dead.
Last time I was here, I was trying to figure out what happened to Bio. Through creeping around on the waybackmachine, I think I found his personal site, http://dogvox.com/

It looks like he had kidney failure and eventually stopped posting both on his site (which he blogged on pretty consistently) and his Twitter. So he might have died. I didn't confirm anything though.
:(

I don't know. I went to a Taco John's once out of curiosity when we were in South Dakota. It's like if you took other fast Tex-Mex chain food and sucked out the flavor, spice, and heat from it, leaving a lifeless, unsatisfying pool of calories.

If you uploaded it to NewGrounds, it's still there. Go to your projects and look at the big ugly text link list there, things with asterisks next to them were removed for whatever reason, but the files are still there. SHOOT THOSE FILES OVER TO ME AND I WILL UPLOAD THEM SOMEPLACE SAFE.
Interesting. I have a couple movies removed, presumably due to music copyright. Is there a way to recover movies that were blammed back in the day?

Seems to me that the ironic, "for the lulz" humor of the CC would translate pretty seamlessly into Pepes and Groyper chuds. Let's be honest, the CC historically hasn't been socially enlightened. Out yourself here, you freaks.

It's really awesome going through and reading these posts. It's these quiet, lonely nights that come up from time to time which draw me back in here.. like a lot of folks said, I think CC was just that panacea to the misery that adolescence and life can throw at you. Even the people who were assholes here are people who I remember fondly, and tbh? While I can't relate to a lot of the content I made or consumed, and can't say I'm near the same person as I was before, I'm glad to have known all of you the way I did.

thanks <3

saw it in the theater
the scene after the... well, that scene. you know the one.
I kept expecting it to cut away, and then I was begging for it to cut away, and then I gave up on it ever cutting away. excruciating. I can't think of a single other filmmaker who wouldn't just cut for god's sake! the important stuff has happened! we feel bad enough, you brute!

I ended up really liking the movie, but that scene has grown to gargantuan proportions in my memory. not to say it wasn't bold and effective, and really a small (if significant) part of a larger film with a lot more going onâ€" I'm really fascinated by, among other things, the compositing of the live shots with the miniatures, both thematically and in terms of how it was accomplishedâ€" but idk if I could sit through it again. I could easily see myself seriously contemplating a rewatch, thinking about that scene, and deciding to just watch The VVitch again instead. The VVitch has a similar lingering and oppressive sense of dread, but it never made me sick to my stomach. that scene, FUCK.

and for those who haven't seen it, it's... well, it's not a gore thing, put it that way.
it's more like all the most horribly awkward moments from The Office rolled up into a single stiff punch to the liver.
Agree. I don't know if I could (would want to) watch it again, but it was a really well-made movie that had me thinking about it long after it was done.

The parts that are so excruciating aren't the horror/supernatural bits, but the unforgivingly tragic bits. I think that's mostly because you can see yourself "there." Ain't no one levitating at you in real life. But... that scene. Yeah, something with similar consequences has happened to real-life people, and that is just... devastating. His reaction, subsequent actions, and her screams of anguish were stuff of realistic nightmares.

Does it have any jump scares though? I hate jump scares... If it's good ol' building up of tension to whatever that scene is, I'm game.

I also though I might do a joke along the lines of:
"Haemophilia?"
"Hereditary, my dear Watson."
But I decided against it.
It's not a jump scare movie really. The scary stuff is usually on screen but hidden (and it doesn't jump out but you eventually notice it's there) or slightly off screen but you know it's there.

Not "haha, that got me but this is silly and fun" but "oh boy this is non-stop cruel in a way that causes me psychological pain"

I hear it's also a movie! Movies are also fun.

I watched Hereditary last night, and oh boy was I not expecting that. I saw the trailers for this movie last year. They seemed to bill it as a traditional teen horror movie. Having watched it now, I don't know how you could successfully market this movie. Duping teens into going into what they think will be a jump-scare-laden slasher flick is probably they best way to get a return on your investment. But it is not that. And the hilarious 1-star Amazon reviews given credence to my thought that this movie was not a all what most viewers were expecting. And most did not know how to take or deal with it.

This movie is pure pain. They suspense is very intense. The family discord is physically unsettling. The violence is quick and unforgiving. It hurt to watch this.

It is a very well made film. The cinematography is beautiful. The symbology and psychological aspects are rich, with a lot of depth, encouraging thought and analysis long after it's over. It reminds me of the other A24 release, The Witch, which I also felt was a very well made, almost art-film style of horror. I like this type of horror movie.

Give it a go and tell me what you think.
