Monday Night Thread – Hopefully keeping cool

Evening all.  I had something I was working on and while trying to get it ready for tonight, I re-read what I had and I punted, it was how to put this “muy no bueno”.  So this is basically a Carpentered post.  But I did have a question for everyone, what songs have mention of movie titles (real movies that exist – so no Highlander 2 or Star Wars 7) and must not be from the soundtrack of the movie named?  I know Rocky Horror has a couple of songs that name classic shlock horror movies, but no others I can think of off the top of my admittedly stoned head.

I also hope everyone has holed up somewhere comfortable and are riding out the continuing heat wave in style.  The downstairs gang of rabbits has not been happy about only being out in the morning and evenings.  Behaving like 2 year olds having tantrums over not getting a candy bar.  I do have to take two of them to the vet this week.  Flan is sneezing (it is very adorable but worrying) and Noir has an ovoid growth next to his ear about 1/2in tall.  Hopefully it is nothing, just the rabbit version of a skin tag (skin tags disprove the very thought that we were created by some higher power because no sentient being can justify the existence of those “things” and ear hair, just why?

Anyway, I have not looked at the sporting schedule except to see when the next futbol matches are to be played.

See ya in the comments!

The Captains of Industry had a Yacht Rock special this weekend on Sirius:

If you can find it, there’s a dope mix from the heart of Yacht Rock revival. It’s DJ Skeet Skeet Skeet Skeet’s Yacht Rock Mix 2009. 1h 55m of smooth sailing.

WCS

DJ Skeet Skeet Skeet Skeet is a very 2009 name.

Last funny:

The 80’s were wild. There were houses in the middle of the street.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

That lyric always bugged the shit out of me.

yeah right

Pushing through season 3 of the Bear and it took some doing.

Episode 6, Napkins, was exceptional.

Made me glad I stayed with it.

Stay with what works guys. The characters and the actors who play them.

Horatio Cornblower

Jamie Lee Curtis was again exceptional, even if that episode pretty much defined ‘claustrophobic’

Ending really pissed me off.

Is that video a pisser or what? That woman is covered up almost up to her chin. She has a sweater on a boat! This was the first wave of the evangelicals in mainstream society, and boy does it show.

Wheres a giant meteor when you need one

Doktor Zymm

Even a small, well aimed meteor

Horatio Cornblower

I would accept a gas leak and a lit cigar.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I’d like to picture Monica Lewinsky being the one who wilfully lit the cigar but first I need to figure out how she escapes without getting hurt.

rockingdog

Found a funny:

inventing 0 carb, 100 calorie, 15g protein alcoholic seltzers. you have no idea how many morons like me would drink that bullshit

Doktor Zymm

I wonder how many people have tried using vodka instead of water when mixing a protein shake and I wonder how much they actually managed to drink and if they kept it down?

Gumbygirl

Doktor Zymm

Dunstan

You were talking in the earlier thred about how you were saved from certain doom by Playboy magaine. It reminds me of the time…..

It was the summer of 1975. My sister Nancy, her boyfriend Marc, the boyfriends friend Keith , and I were heading to the movies to see Jaws. We were just about to light a doob when a cop lit us up. I was the only one still a juvenile, so didn’t those fuckers toss all the weed and papers etc back to me. The cop kept us by the side of the road for what seemed like forever. We were so rattled after that, we never did go to the movie. Which is why, to this very day, Gumbygirl has never seen Jaws.

Gumbygirl

Magazine. What the fuck!

Bonus performance of Dead Man’s Party by Oingo Boingo

Pretty much every 80s action movie, especially the Cannon ones. I think they were contractually obligated to do that for Cannon movies. Over the Top, No Retreat, No Surrender (in which the protagonists retreat at least three times after saying this line) are the first two I can think of. Best of the Best also has this. Iron Eagle as well.

Unsurprised

There’s a great trio of mixtapes online called Blood Brothers that is a great workout soundtrack. https://archive.org/search?query=creator:%22Blood%20Bros%22

Then they released IV a couple years ago. Anyway. FOOTLOOSE.

Unsurprised

I don’t believe in using YouTube directly unless I have to. Hooray for APIs.
