Things you were shockingly old when you learned

Nobody is shocked by your age except you. I think we’re mostly just impressed but don’t want to say so because we don’t want you to feel old.

(“can I be Aimless someday?” many ilxors ask)

you are too kind. or drunk. I can't decide.

both.

that Isabella Rossellini is the daughter of Ingrid Bergman and Roberto Rossellini.

When he first spotted Isabella, David Lynch told her: “Hey, you know, you could be the daughter of Ingrid Bergman.” A friend nearby informed him, “You idiot, she IS Ingrid Bergman's daughter."

Lynch uses that line on everyone.

an earring is a ring that goes on an ear

Ok, that's a bit shocking

Yeah

:O

scumbag as an insult comes from the word's usage in the 20th century as a term for condom

gross, right?

It was a lot more transgressive when i fuckin coined it tbh

surely the s should just be dropped if that's the case

that "Quisling" was an actual person who collaborated with the Nazis as opposed to a pleasingly onomatopoeic English word with vague connotations of faery changelings or some kind of hideous and stunted birdlike creature

have you just watched The King's Choice? That was how I learned about Quisling last year.

I was aware of the name source but not all the connotations of the term. Had been thinking of it as a term for Trump but it seems to be necessary for the country involved to be under occupation which it isn't quite yet.

I was thinking it meant deceptive sellout ala 5th columnist so criteria about country actually being under occupation wasn't vital.

The 16 men are on a dead man’s *treasure chest*, and not, like, on a guy’s physical chest (like a tattoo)

"One for the money and done for the rest" refers to the fact that all but one of those sixteen men are dead, too, and all the treasure belongs to the last one left alive.

No results found for "one for the money and done for the rest".

it’s not like there’s an authoritative version of that song that actually means stuff at this point

but it’s fifteen men not sixteen

i always heard it was a furlong or a shilling of men. imperial measures are incredibly fucked

It's more "got shockingly far through today before I clocked" but: Emily Bronte and Kate Bush were born on the same day, 140 years apart.

16 men and whaddaya get
Another day deader and deeper in chest

David Axelrod's a white guy

the musician or the politician?

the latter. There's a musician named David Axelrod?

thread delivers

anyway I would've sworn I'd seen pictures of David Axelrod the political consultant before, and would've sworn he was black, but he actually just had a mustache. Was I thinking of Eric Holder? Maybe.

looks white too?

My dad has a mustache but I've never mistaken him for a black man.

anyway I'm ostensibly at work

I think there's a new reissue of one of the David Axelrod William Blake lps, just saw it in a review section from I think this month.
Did some really great funky semi orchestral stuff and the Electric Prunes lps before he replaced teh actual band members.
Worth checking out if you're not already familar with him

the latter. There's a musician named David Axelrod?

unless it's just a pseudonym for arnold shawmobile

Probably not the right thread for this but I just found that the film director in "Singin' in the Rain" being slowly driven crazy by having to record sound was Kim Fowley's father.

Not all judges have legal degrees/experience.

This kind of blew my mind

I didn't realize until about a year ago that the chorus of Run-DMC "It's Tricky" was interpolating the chant from Toni Basil "Hey Mickey" https://t.co/ZdqV93HefI
