Straight to the Gutter thread (NSFW)

Man - you’re soooooooo off the market if the GF’s mother is baking for you. That’s a definite “Welcome to the family” move… :slight_smile:

No. But the movie is similar to your assessment of the book. Possibly somewhat more enjoyable, but a lot of the same themes. They probably downplayed some of the book’s excesses. One thing that might interest you is that the actress who plays his secretary was also in The Brown Bunny. You may enjoy her performance in that. :smiley:

Otherwise known as

GR, once again taking it to the hole…

IYKWIM

Disturb: Yes. Disappoint: No.

Dude, she’s right on the mark there. I went from feeling like the dangerous BF (A good vibe you always dig) to “Such a nice boy!” cheek pinching the minute a GF’s mom started with the choclate chip cookies. I wound up marrying her too.

[Sigh]

They were good cookies though.

Ooooooh…
I thought he said Alpacastrudel.
Apple strudel is much better.

Frank Miller is taking All-Star Batman STRAIGHT TO THE GUTTER! They’re destroying copies of an over-the-top-gutteriness-containing issue!

For anyone without a faint heart, take a CLOSE look at what almost made it into one of this week’s DC comics:

Tell me again how comics are supposed to be “kid stuff”…

They haven’t been since I was a kid.

I don’t quite understand why the bars were separate from the lettering, unless they plan to do a non-redacted version at some point (graphic novel, maybe?)

That’s the printing error that now is the reason why they ask that comic shops destroy all their copies instead of selling them. Word is, they’re already worth a lot on Ebay.

Are you joking? Kids love profanity. :smiley:

No, it’s just that he’s a Paris Hilton acolyte.

So truuuuuuuuue! That’s definitely a sign.

I just read all the black bars as “sorry Barb.”

“This here arcade belongs to the sorrybarbing Batgirl!”

Love it.

You DO know there is one that uses iTunes right?

Yeah, but, honestly, I just don’t like the idea of such predictability, you know?

Ah. Now I get why the “genius” feature is a big deal.

If there is one constant in the tech world it’s…someone will figure out how to use it for sex (SorryBarb)

Oh… :o

I meant that I don’t like the idea of hooking up a hypothetical toy that I might have to an iPod because I know all of my music and there’s just no spontaneity in the perks of the toy matching the rhythms of the music. If I’m going to use technology for that, I’d want some sort of randomizer.

raises hand I did. I couldn’t stop reading because I kept waiting for something to actually happen besides posturing and brand-name-dropping. Even the torture/murder scenes were non-events.

Same reason I watched “Female Trouble” from beginning to end. My gay b.f.f. kept swearing it was such a great movie… That’s an hour and a half I’ll never get back…
