I want to look him straight in the eye, and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey shit he is! Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where’s the Tylenol?

🫡 YouTubeTV vs. Fubo

Posted November 26, 2023

Going to try out Fubo for a few days and see if we want to switch from YouTubeTV. Access to Bally is the big one (Wild, Timberwolves, Twins), but 4K is included in Fubo Elite too. Both have DVR and Apple device support, so need to review overall cost and quality of apps…

I’ve probably watched this at least a dozen times (and listened to the album hundreds of times), but still very fun to see the 40th anniversary restored version tonight at Alamo. RIP Jonathan Demme, Bernie Worrell and the “real” Uptown Theater 💜

Shut up, you American. You Americans, all you do is talk, and talk, and say “let me tell you something” and “I just wanna say.” Well, you’re dead now, so shut up…
