You May Say I’m a Dreamer

Yes and we can talk about my anal bleach.

@Benedick:
only if there is video

Somewhat related to anal bleach, we’re having a primary election today to pick a successor to L.A.’s Mayor Smiley McZipper, who is now rumored to be enhancing his international affairs dossier by boffing a Mexican actress. Turnout is reportedly very low; polling is showing “I Don’t Give A Fuck” in the lead.

That unpleasantness in the 1860’s comes to mind.

@CaptHowdy: Do you know that H&R Block uses a very similar green square? How much are they paying you movie graphics people for the advertising?

@Dave H:
perhaps I will color correct my greenscreen

Can we offer suggestions of where they could bomb? In a totally theoretical scenarionish kind of way?

@Dave H: I doubt they’ve got quite the right green. Greenscreen green is not just green it’s a very particular green that outgreens all other greens for the purpose of making green invisible. I spent a couple of very unpleasant days at Silvercup in NYC on the deck of a fake whale boat being blasted by water canons in front of a vast green backdrop. When seen on TV I was on the deck of said boat sailing a pristine Alaskan fjord as whales leapt in the background as Jerry Seinfeld made a pitch for AmEx. I was not pleased and I was not paid enough.

It’s not easy being green.

@Benedick:

more specifically it is a green which – like the color of Bohners skin – is not found in the natural world so it can be “keyed” out. although the keying is done digitally now.

@Benedick: “Do you realize you are trying to purify quite possibly the purest air on the planet?”

That made my snowquestered day, good sir. A day in which I am cellar dwelling for a cash-only arrangement that allows me a dry place moderately close to my work in ONC but requires me to put up with a slightly unstable roommate who apparently has never used the operational end of a vacuum cleaner.

I could be home building slush-and-snow men with my kids, instead of this.

@Benedick: Did you stay a little rosy or go full pink?

@Beggars Biscuit: Oh dear Christ, you remember the copy???

@Tommmcatt Can’t Believe He Ate The Whole Thing: I don’t do things by halves.

BREAKING: Sen Rand Paul is doing an old-fashioned, talk-til-you-drop filibuster of Brennan’s nomination to head the CIA. It’s on, bitches!

@Beggars Biscuit: @Benedick: Hope some extra got residuals for that.

@nojo: Awesome-est post in the history of Stinque and its ancestors.

@nojo: Extra? Extra?? I’m the ruggedly handsome one with the accent. It only ran for six weeks and I may have made as much as $5,000. I suspect that Mr. Seinfeld was not working for scale.

@Benedick: Could have sworn it was Darrell Hammond doing Sean Connery.

@nojo: @Benedick: Marvelous. Love.

@nojo: Coffee —> keyboard

@Benedick: Smashing, darling.

@Mistress Cynica: @SanFranLefty: I’m here to class the place up.

@Benedick: Wait. That was fake?

@Benedick: Mission accomplished, darling.

@JNOV: The boat deck was set on rockers about 15 ft off the studio floor so the stagehands could rock it. There were a couple of water cannons, huge fans, and a giant green screen behind us. Everything else is digital.

@Benedick: And you didn’t break your hip!

Steve approves, BTW.

@Benedick: Clean the toilet while you’re at it.
