Makes me wonder about the sanity of some people...

Reminds me of the Buffalo Children's Pediatric Intensive Care center where the door opposite the elevator had a sign:
"Premature Infant Exchange Center" ... where they performed blood transfusions |

I was just thinking about the film Delicatessen and a tiny visual pun I caught in the background. At least I think it was a pun.
There was a sign "Defense d' Afficher" on the wall near the butcher's shop. Someone ahd scratched out letters so it read "Defense d' A ché" Which I assumed would read the same as hacher. I felt quite proud considering I never took French in school

I was minding my own business today, trolling around my Netflix account. The site claimed to have some suggestions for me. One of the sections was "Thrillers", but only offered one choice "Notorious". Fine. But there was a little doodad saying "Rate more thrillers for more suggestions", so I clicked it. Lots of thumbnails came up and I had the option to rate them on a five star scale. Ok, I rated a handful of them, and it would ask a follow up question about how frequently I watched "xyz style" movies like the title I'd just rated, never, sometimes or often. I found Alfred Hitchcock's "Rope" on this page, I have seen it and I loved it (it's notable for the style in which it was made seemingly done in one long continuous shot). So I rated it five stars.
Then the following follow up question appeared: Quote:
Was it the rope or the cock in Hitchcock? Or just the crack they're smokin? :LOL2:

I could see a connection if you had clicked on "Rooster Cogburn" |

FB lately has been recommending friends that for the life of me I can find no connection to. No mutual friends. No education, work, or cities in common. It makes no sense. When I click on their names to see who the fuck they are, I see that they have like 25 friends. It's not like it's some famous person with thousands of people following them.

I don't get it.
Do you not call them monkey nuts over there? I've been buying them to feed the squirrels since I was about 7.

I know what Defense d' Afficher means. Defense d' A ché? Nope. I watched Delicatessen until my video warped. I wasn't so good with detail then though. These days I'm all about the background and (sadly) continuity errors...

And ground beef is what we use for "Steak Tartare". We eat it raw mixed with salt, pepper, tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, onion, parlsey and garlic. Some people add ketchup and/or mayonaise.
