I don’t think I’ve watched it since Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did Weekend Update and even then, I mostly just watched it for that part and TV’s Funhouse.
I would agree Mr PP Boy, but my self proclaimed communist friend from childhood loved Stalin. And last I ran into him he was reading Maos theory. Guy was 27 years old at that point too.
So for those of us following along at home, you know a guy who believes a thing, therefore you have applied that belief to all people who proclaim to believe a different thing?
And his friends. And the people in the Marxist Leninist instances here.
Also, another really smart dude I talk to regularlu, he says he would consider himself a Marxists. Probably not a Tankie, but still says stupid shit saying that the war un Ukraine is the US fault and its a result of NATO expansionist. Which is wrong for so many reasons. And his grandma was a communist China apologist.
Communism is stupid, and the people that follow it are dogmatic and have no pragmatic basis for their “theory” other than their feelings. If it offends go cry about it.
Or apparently not replying at all, in this case. My favorite is the Jordan Peterson response, though: “I had over 6 months to prepare for a debate on this topic after decades of claiming to be an expert and showed up to admit I could only be bothered to read his manifesto”
One thing that comes up in the original book is dracula is apparently a really good cook but in some lore the can’t really eat food so I like the idea of dracula learning to cook then just tossing out the rest of the dish once he’s satisfied
That doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Firstly an aristocrat in the late 1800s, especially one who had been around for a long time, would not cook their own food, that’s servant work. Secondly, vampires don’t generally gain sustenance from food, so why would he care? Finally, if this dude can’t eat garlic I question his ability to make tasty food
I think it was a a curry but I could be totally since it’s been a while and at that point in the book he was telling johnathan that he lived alone so he at least wanted him to believe that he cooked it
I’ve only seen the 1931 movie but didn’t he have Renfield as a servant? Plus he had help when he traveled from Transylvania to London. So it still doesn’t make sense to me
I’m pretty sure renfield doesn’t show up till london as he’s in a psych ward there and it was johnathon’s job to set up the buying of a heart plus the trip to london
