They should do a faithful-to-the-book adaptation of Moonraker!
Straight out of the mid-50s, an ICBM pointing at London and in a countdown. A race against time! (and Hugo Drax)

The opposite of a Bulwer-Lytton!

How about a threefer with
Jerry
Lee
Lewis!

Reminds me of that Simon & Garfunkel lyric, along the lines of

...he's so unhip
when you say Dylan
he thinks you're talking about Dylan Thomas!
Whoever he was.

Hey, Imaginary Percentages, cool!

To generate Complex Demographic on a Cartesian plane.

And what did the working class do this election?
They gave the keys to the kingdom to the con men, and that includes the twitter and amazon assholes.
That'll fix things! That'll show 'em!

Because if it wasn't Gaza, it would have been another excuse to not lift a lazy goddamned finger and still delude themselves into feeling "morally superior"while sitting on their fat mediocre asses at home.

Before Harris, they also leaned heavily on the "Sleepy Joe" bullshit and "two old white men up for election, who cares". Once the old "Sleepy Joe" element was removed from the equation, they had to find a way to keep their goddamned stubbornly lazy and ignorant narrative intact.

Now that the election is over, most of these "concerned and outraged" deadweight assholes will never think about Gaza and the plight of its' people again. And they will keep on feeling smug about themselves.

Didn't The French Connection also begin with cops in disguise, too?
I seem to remember it, but it also feels like my memory could be playing tricks on me.

Great, now I'm seeing "teim" and not "team".

Which reminds me of Mexican 7-Up knockoff Teem, which used to be in all the taco stands decades ago. Whatever happened to Teem? One day it was gone and no one seemed to notice it. It disappeared and life carried right on.
Did it disappear right around the time Sprite started showing up everywhere? I can't remember.

Anyway, there's no "i" in Teem. Carry on!

While filming Citizen Kane, director and star Orson Welles likened making a movie to playing with a toy train set, and that playful inventive spirit shines all throughout the movie.

Raised eyebrow - "Fascinating"

Of course I hope you are right, but if after the past decade and everything that has happened, that has been said, this election seems to be in a dead heat instead of Harris/Waltz winning by anything other than a landslide, I hold no illusions about the intelligence and decency of the "average" american voter, these people are already dead inside, or at least not too far removed from illiterate medieval peasants, easily dazzled by bullshit and god-kings with magic political wands... abraca-fucking-dabra.
