This one keeps getting posted, but it’s not like it’s actually The Future.
The Future is whatever we all make it, and we’ve got 10 months to make it joyful and wonderful instead of shitty. I’m doing my part to spread joy; and part of that is being optimistic instead of the opposite.
It’s like predicting a stock market crash. If you predict it every year for the rest of your life, you’ll probably be right at some point. Keyword: “probably”
As a kid I couldn’t eat that. I still have problems with this. I tried buying dino nuggets a while back and my spouse had to eat them in the end. Which is especially absurd considering that the animal shape throws me off of eating an actual animal. But I’ve worked my way through to be able to eat gummibears and sometimes even chocolate santas, but I have to eat them immediately and not let their headless carcass lie around. (Bunnies are worse.)
I guess so. I had to convince myself that gummi bears are in great pain and the only thing that helps them is to be chewed on, like a massage kinda thing. That’s the only way I can eat gummi bears. I am in my 30s man.
King is my favorite author, hands down, but I don’t understand why so many people seem to look down at Koontz. If we’re really being honest, Koontz would be much more well regarded if it weren’t for the fact that he’s so frequently directly compared to King, and Stephen King is a one-of-a-kind, once in a lifetime literary master. Absent the comparison to King, the bulk of Koontz’s work holds up quite well. It’s entertaining writing with relatable characters that are easy for become invested in. Hell, some of his ideas were not only terrifyingly imaginative, they were also oddly accurate predictions of the future. Demon Seed is uniquely chilling in that it was almost comically over the top with its seemingly ridiculous technology that has since very much become a reality.
I would also argue that Koontz has had a few film adaptations that ended up better than the King adaptations of their time. Phantoms, Watchers, Servants of Twilight, Whispers, Intensity, and Mr. Murder were all pretty great.
Koontz has a great track record. He simply suffers from living in the shadow of a modern day colossus like King. Absent the comparison, I feel Koontz would be much more favorably viewed.
was it a car crash video/gif sub? sounds familiar.
I also remember a dank meme with a sketch of jesus and a helicopter pilot, with different dumb captions, like “hit this bong before you takeoff, bro, trust me, my son”
I would be happy to have King sign my Moonlight bay books (C’mon Koonts get the third one out!). But only if he signs it " …needs more underage orgies -signed Stephen King."
Jesus is chilling with his friends, some call them disciples, but that’s not really fair. They were the only ones who believed in him when times were rough, and he treasures that. They’re having a few beers, a few laughs, enjoying life.
Suddenly a voice calls out though space and time “Jesus, take the wheel” and an eldritch spell summons Jesus to a metal coffin, hurtling down a river made of stone at speeds which shouldn’t even be possible. Jesus can’t even believe what is happening. What the fuck, he screams as he desperately spins the wheel in his hands and flips over into a ditch.
