    Default The Power of the Internet

    My parents have this story they've told for my entire life. The story is short. It is about the funniest movie ever made (according to them). My mother likes to tell it every few months. The short version is:

    My parents watched the funniest movie they had ever seen. It was a cowboy comedy. The bad guy wears black, the good guy wears white. It's full of every cliche you can think of. They never stopped laughing. They thought it was Blazing Saddles, but it wasn't. Now they can't figure out what movie it was.

    This past Sunday, my mother made an odd comment which was obviously a quote of some sort. I asked, she said it was from the movie, after the short version of the story. And, once again, lamented on not knowing the name of the movie and so being unable to watch it again.

    Fortunately, this is the future. We have a global database of every bit of information that survived into the 21st century (including a heck of a lot of misinformation) which is searchable by everybody at all times; provided you have a smart phone and data plan.

    Google to the rescue! "You put that violin up under your chin where it belongs". Which was the mis-quote of the actual line (Google figured it out anyway), "you just tuck it up under your chin like a fiddle's 'sposed to be played". And IMDB provided the rest.

    I still haven't seen the movie. But now I can find it and let my mother watch what she believes is the funniest movie ever made.

    Note how she doesn't tell us the name of the movie either.

    Got my refund, and pre ordered Titanfall 2.
    November's gonna be a fun month

    Sadly, I can't buy Skyrim Legendary Edition as a result, seeing as how I'm out of cash till my birthday next year.
    So no Skyrim special edition for me :\
    (If you own Skyrim+all DLC on the PC, you get the Special Edition for free)

    Tried making a post on /r/giftofgames, maybe someone'll be kind enough to give me a copy :P

    I think you're right Pseudograph.

    The hero would only shoot bad guys in the hand.
    So to beat the "good guy", the bad guys brought in another "good guy"
    Resulting in the most hilarious shoot out ever!

    Nope: I stand corrected, it IS the Evil Roy Slade!
    I had completely forgotten about that one!

    Here's another hilariaous one.

    The Villain

    With Kirk Douglas, Ann Margeret, and none other than Ahnold Schwarzenegger!

    Are those new pop-tart flavours? How horrible. Have you actually tried any of them?

    It reminds me of the decade I spent without jam because the local store wouldn't sell just plain old strawberry. It had to be straberry-something-that-doesn't-quite-work. Stop breaking what isn't broke!

    [edit] okay, so it wasn't a decade. It was probably a month or two. But it was the month or two when I needed to buy some jam.

    ....
    Have tried the lemonade and orange ones. The root beer ones don't even sound good, so am passing on those and relying on gut instinct.

    I want the Wild Cherry ones back. Not the Wild Berry mix, not the plain Cherry with crunchy sprinkles... The Wild Cherry with swirly frosting.

    I am on a Pop Tart strike until my local store starts stocking them again.
