    Found out there was a 2nd White Noise movie. MF's didn't scar us enough, they had to make a second one.

    Oh hell. Another person who lost their father when they (both of them) were way too young. I'm sorry to hear that.
    It's one of those things you never really get over, but trying to be the person you think they'd want you to be helps!
    Thanks for the nice thoughts! :emoji_kissing_heart:

    That movie scares the shit out of me. As a science nerd, I know that part of the white noise between radio and TV stations is interference from the CMB.

    Ok so we were talking about the same movie.. when I googled it this came up:


    Having CLW in it is kinda weird.. seems like a semi-big movie (wasn't he in the pet cem remake?) but never heard of this & it has nothing to do w/ the first one lol

    My take was that the white noise was certain past, current, and future dead speaking out in their last traumatic moments into the Universe, and embedding themselves into the RF jumble of the Universe.

    And of course I'm guilty of another Boomer miscommunication here!
    Barbara was particularly hilarious in that movie to us older people because of her especially outrageous role.
    We all remember her as being incredibly prim and proper back in the days of black and white TV! :)

    To be honest, I would've given up watching Airplane if you hadn't chimed in. It's funny in a way that could NEVER be made today. It's a slow, gently simmering comedy that goes from zero to "OOoooohh DAAMN!" in .004 seconds.

    Thanks @Bob W

    I pulled the plug at $3.53. No need to get greedy. Watched Angel has Fallen and sat on the patio and watched a storm roll in.

    I love watching storms. It's calming somehow.

    I stopped at $11 and just let PandaCrazy run. I wanted a half-assed day off to just screw off.

    You're safe, nature is busy rampaging. When I was homeless, storms were awesome. Just 4ft of concrete between me and the storm, and the creek would run rampant and sometimes go over it's bank and I'd wake up and go "Oh. Oh shit. Shit." Almost but don't quite miss it.

    Man, I miss that so much! I used to have a perfect patio situation for watching storms. It was great! Definitely worth missing out on a couple bucks.
