I don't know, I was just curious as you are familiar with the site. I sometimes look for horror news and read the comments. I saw members bullying Brad Miska's articles sometimes  :laugh: but there is a female editor who enjoys greater approval.

I think so. Registred in 2016 to Disqus only to be able to partake in discussions on Bloody Disgusting.

Don't think I insulted or bullied anyone who didn't come after me first.
Did critisize the site often. I'm also picky and critical when it comes to horror so I tend to sound somewhat negative. As it turns out, people don't like a downer. Who knew?!  :D

Rant:
My main problem with the site though, is that they advertise themselves as a horror news site. While they often promote non-horror at the cost of real horror, that gets less or no attention because of it.
The writers often use lines like "us in the horror community" and "we're not just a horror community, were also a family" along with exagerrations and just being plain wrong.
There's a guy who see Cthulhu everywhere. "Big monster with tentacles, must be Cthulhu" when each time it deviates enough from the literature and drawing of Cthulhu made by the person who thought him up.
"Those creatures look fishy, must be a Lovecraftian movie!"
And so on.

Hey I can empathize with that. Some think that everything that has tentacles is Lovecraftian, and forget that it's about the unknowable and incomprehensible what really defines this type of horror. Ok I sound like a pretentious dick.  :laugh:

Edit: An American philosopher cataloged Lovecraft's fiction as Weird Realism.

But overall it's nerdy nostalgic pareidolia. Sometimes it happens to me with Alien prequels. Seriously, there was a time when I saw Engineers even on my toast.  :laugh:

Her smile and optimism: gone
:(


Years of my life gone mate, up in bloody smoke, just want this pandemic to end so I can even start trying to do things again.

In the American south the virus hasn't really done anything to change how we do things.  In Kentucky mask are advised but not enforced because the way the thing was passed originally bordered on violating the law, so Police and Sheriffs don't actually enforce the mandate.  Businesses can, just like they can refuse you service for any matter of things, but they don't because they need the business.

I did the things I was supposed to and still caught it (wore mask, avoided crowds which I do anyways because of slight social phobias, and stayed six feet apart from everyone) and since then I've just been in kind of a f**k it mode.

Heart palpitations when I lay down are making it difficult to sleep.

That doesn't sound good, Local. You should get that checked out.

Nope.  It's a relatively new affliction.

If I suddenly go silent, just assume my ticker gave out.

I have no idea how literal that last sentence is, but if you can see a doctor without going broke in that ghoulish country of yours you probably should.

Maybe we should all refrain from posting nun stuff for a while.

Also: What VM and SM are saying.

It couldn't hurt to get it checked, but don't panic. Alot of things can cause palpitations. Just about everybody I know has had them at some point, regardless of age.

Nein. If he's not feeling well, I want him to have only the biggest/finest nuns.

I'll chip in.

If you gotta go, there's worse ways than a (drug fueled) sex induced heart attack by hot nun.
Coming and going at the same time.

Spoiler
I know this is a serious issue but I'm not good with that so I'm using humour as a coping mechanism
