there was a dew drop inn right across from my house in london for years; at one point it changed proprietors and they changed the name to “the dew drop” 🤦

it doesn't work with an English accent, so I'm sure they missed it too

That Caran d'Ache, the pencil company, takes its name from the Russian word for pencil. I did lots of drawing in high school and also took Russian, but somehow I never put the two words together before.

GOOP being in some way a play on Gwyneth Paltrow's name had escaped my attention until today.

I guess I'm even worse at puns than I thought. It literally just occurred to me that WhatsApp is a pun.

I get to hear that at least once a month at karaoke, usually minus the big hat

Looking in the freezer last night, I realized that "Summertime Rolls" by Jane's Addiction must be a play on spring rolls.

Does Goodwill feature prominently in the movie (never seen it).

...me neither, I just always assumed it was a pun...

m0stly clean (Slowsquatch), Wednesday, 17 April 2024 17:53 (two weeks ago) link

on the phrase we are all saying all the time, "Goodwill hunting"

G. D’Arcy Cheesewright (silby), Wednesday, 17 April 2024 17:59 (two weeks ago) link

After puzzling over it, I concluded it referred to Damon and Affleck appealing to producers to show them some good will by bankrolling their project.

Skylar has inherited money under a will, but learns that what is truly important is human connection with a man named Will. The movie Good Will Hunting tells the journey of Skylar "hunting" her emotions about the "good" Will out from among the complex web of feelings she has around the "bad" will.

The sequel Good Will Hunting 2: aka Applesauce, Byiatch! did not receive a wide release.

Just realised the old Mac game Myst refers to both the mystery of the game and the literal mist onscreen concealing the graphics

assert (matttkkkk), Tuesday, 30 April 2024 19:22 (three days ago) link

does it

G. D’Arcy Cheesewright (silby), Tuesday, 30 April 2024 19:56 (three days ago) link

The game's name, as well as the overall solitary and mysterious atmosphere of the island, was inspired by the book The Mysterious Island by Verne.[3]
