Story time.

I went to a pet shop/zoo in Providence one time. Guy had alligators monitor lizards snapping turtles. I asked the gentleman what's the thing you want to be bit by the least. He pulls out a coffee tin and gets a feeder mouse. Drops the mouse in and tilts the can towards me.

I was expecting a dinosaur or a thousand scorpions made out of barb wire. I look in and see a centipede bite the tiny mouse and hang on. I was like. 'Cute bug'. The mouse proceeds to melt from the inside out like it stared into the Arc of the Covenant and it was the most terrifying thing I've ever seen.

I've since thought about that bug biting my hand or my ankle and just feeling my tissue dissolve. Tendons, arteries even bone just become a green mush and how devastating that would be. Achilles' tendon just corroding down to paste.

What an awful little pile of shit that centipede was.

Disney buys Star Wars.

I don't understand how a bunch of 25-40 year old men complain about a movie studio/toy company who's purpose is to sell to children buying a franchise that was made for children.

This is like everyone being mad if Disney bought Nintendo, when I was a kid Nintendo was great, I'm an adult now I don't blame Nintendo for having kids games, they're not for me anymore I didn't expect Nintendo to mature with me much like I didn't expect Sesame Street or The Muppet Babies and the way Star Wars fans shouldn't be upset that their franchise didn't mature for them. Children like Jar Jar Binks. Kids loved him, like the fan boys all liked Chewbacca. Have some fucking self awareness you fucking pricks. It's not for you. It's time to grow up and move on to overrate another mediocre franchise that will haunt me the rest of my life.

Try The Dark Knight. I hear there's plenty of mundane shit in that movie to debate forever.
