My new project: a documentary about a Naked Mole Rat Irish folk band. Done entirely in robotic topiary and narrated by Martin Scorsese.

I would pay good folding money to see this.

The sad part is, I started shuffling through my mental roladex of Irish folk singers to make casting suggestions. It was working out pretty well before I got to the robotic topiary part, but I respect your vision Hec. And I'm sure Marty would love to oblige.

Speaking of oatmeal:

28 days of oatmeal! I'm a little obsessed with trying some savory oatmeal. For breakfast. I love a savory breakfast!

Compassionately intolerant

I loved Ong Bak 1 after going along with a friend thinking I would hate it. It struck me later that after all the chop sockey and violence, the tragic reveal at the end took my breath away. I bawled like a baby even though I saw it coming.

Haven't seen the others. Should rectify that.

I like oatmeal with sweetener, raisins, and milk. Or peanut butter. I've never tried savory oatmeal, though. Intellectually, it seems like it would be good. I'm not sure if my inner 4 year old would kick up a fuss over it not tasting like an unbaked cookie, though.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I almost never eat breakfast. Am I crazy? I just don't get hungry until fairly late in the day.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

My god, Thailand is a violent place. Good thing they don't have guns, though.

Disagree!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Obviously you haven't been paying attention to the right sources, bon. My citations are impeccable.

Chop sockey, bonny? I didn't think we still talked like that.

I'd say it was! I found nearly-new Fluevog boots at Goodwill yesterday. Not my size (whaaa!), but I know that I can sell them on.

I am a non-oatmeal person. VERY MUCH a non-oatmeal person. I have bad memories of the instant stuff from my childhood. I have also had steel-cut oats prepared with butter and cream and some homemade strawberry jam, and I still didn't like it.

But Polish-American, no?

Given that my Dad was American, I'm going to say no. I'm not a big fan of hyphenating based on distant heritage.
