tommyrot, you make me laugh, only because *I* got Citizen Kane from the library this afternoon!
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Y'all should get high & eat White Castles first!

not generally as gross as MacDonalds and its ilk. Usually crunchier. Or ice-creamier. Mmm.
A bowl of ice cream I had the last time I was under the influence was decidedly one of the Best Foods Ever.
(But I'm SO boring when I'm high -- I go into the corner, stare at the ceiling, and giggle at random intervals. It feels bourgeois to admit, but I like booze better.)

Speaking of pot....
(no, not really)
Has anyone seen Naopleon Dynamite, and if so, what did you think?

I liked White Castle when I ate them, but I was 10 or something...I expect my palette's evolved. But I do like to eat junk, so maybe not.

Ah, well, see, my problem is, I'm a bit TOO much fun when drinking. Man, I wanna be a stoner again. Sadly, my contacts are not what they once were...
Hmm, topictopictopic.... Aha! Entertainment Weekly has a list of top 10 stoner movies! The Dude is listed as the best movies stoner ever.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Do you mean a gyro?
That'd be it ... though we include lettuce with the tomato and lamb. Is "gyro" just a bastardization of "yiros", or is there another reason it's called that in the US?
OT: they won't let you eat a yiros in the cinema. Bastards!

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
That's just how it's spelled here. Dunno why.
I can accept lettuce on my gyro, but I went to one place one time where they put pickles on it. Almost made me throw up.

From Wikipedia:
Gyros (also spelled gyro or yeeros, Greek γῡρός 'round') is a sandwich usually made of a pita, tomatoes, tzatziki sauce and minced meat. The meat is usually a mixture of lamb and pork, roasted on a rotating spit. Gyros is a Greek food but similar to the Turkish-German Döner kebab. The pronunciation of gyros is widely debated with one linguist noting 5 pronunciations just in Greece. yiro(s) ("yee-ros") is one of the leading pronunciations.
Gyros and souvlaki are sometimes used as interchangeable terms in Greece although they refer to two different dishes.

If you have not seen the Korean action flick Tube you don't really know how over the top a movie can get. It takes a bit of the Speed concept, throws in a little Apollo 13, and concocts something gloriously outrageous and yet all its own. It's a lot of fun.
