Topic	Life After Geeks
Zeus 07/19/20 9:38:08 PM #405:	Getting close to the next topic. Are we keeping on the COVID theme? If so, we could use The Continued (Natural) Self-Quarantining of the Geeks The Geeks Don't Go to Camp 28 Geeks Later Or we could go with Twilight of the Geeks, if it hasn't been used. In general, I don't think we'll see many new things around the corner. ParanoidObsessive posted... But did you watch Hot Tub Time Machine? Didn't interest me. ParanoidObsessive posted... Not really because of his performance (he was basically the Straight Man, and the Straight Man is almost never the reason why you like any given film/show/performance, even if the Straight Man is often necessary to cast the other characters into better relief), idk, I'll watch a movie knowing a great Straight Man is in it, given that their reactions can make almost any joke funny. ParanoidObsessive posted... I always find it interesting comparing older wrestling fans who used to be huge Chris Benoit fans when he was alive who absolutely cannot stand to see anything with him in it (even the old video games) to this day, as opposed to the people who are adamant about being able to separate the performer from the performance and still appreciate his work as a wrestler even if they find his actions as a person reprehensible. Ranging all the way from people who can't even watch old PPVs if he was on them (even matches he's not in), to people who argue he should still be in the Hall of Fame for his work, because his contributions to/impact on the industry were significant even if his personal life was a horror show. That one was easy, since I never liked him before. In fact, it seems like it's almost always the ones I don't like that turn out to be monsters (whereas the ones I do like merely turn out to be assholes or creeps). Maybe I have a super-power. Do you think it's too late for me to join a school for gifted youngsters so I can hone my ability? --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:942327077] in Life After...
