The people directly in front of me, at the computer lab help desk, are talking about Tetris Attack and this guy is drawing pictures on a piece of paper to show someone else what it looks like. I guess I'm really not the only person in the world who remembers this game.
Also, when I first got to this web page, (Angelfire), there was a big banner at the top instructing you to "Shoot the Evil Kangaroo." Wow. An evil kangaroo, huh? Now that's just weird.
In fact, that's almost as weird as the mouse for this computer, which keeps glitching out and making the web page have seizures for a few minutes, after which it will stop for no reason. At least the mouse isn't making the corner of my thumb black, like they usually do here.
What else is weird? Well, on Amazon.com you can buy this 200 page book all about Target. Yes, that's right, Target, where I work. I stumbled across this while I was searching for red shirts at Target.com, since you'd think they would sell them, but no...
By the way, I've been having "Talking To"'s at work since, apparently, I'm not getting enough TARGET CARDS. But hey, it's not my fault that nobody wants to get a Target Card from me! Besides, everybody in Bozeman who goes to Target regularly already has a Target Card, so there.
While we're on the subject of things that are weird, besides the fact that saving my e-mails is glitching out too, I'm going to post what I think are the weirdest movies of all time. I posted something similar already on an Amazon.com Listworthy List, but I've since then changed my mind and as far as I know, you can't edit Listworthy Lists that you've already created, (unfortunately.) So here we go:
1.) 8 1/2: The weirdest film ever made in the history of the motion picture. In the first five minutes, a guy flies out of his windshield and has to be pulled out of the sky by people who lasso a rope to his foot. The next thing you know, he's dead and a whole bunch of circus performers come out of a spaceship and march around. Just don't ask.
2.) Akira: Screaming blue kids, blood on windshields, and Tetsuo turning into a giant blob. Um, yeah.
3.) Hiroshima Mon Amour: The first ten minutes or so are marginally interesting, and suddenly this lady starts having a flashback about being locked in some dungeon because she was crazy. It just gets stranger from there.
4.) The City of Lost Children: Wow. If the Insane Santa Claus Posse doesn't give you nightmares, then the midget lady and the people's brains hooked up to electrodes while they scream will.
5.) Total Recall: For me, it was that nasty puppet thing coming out of the guy's stomach and giving Arnold advice that really did it. If that was supposed to make sense, you can just shoot me now.
6.) Repo Man: The opening shot involves a policeman opening a guy's trunk and getting disintegrated from the knees up. After that, just when things begin to settle into your average punk movie, a glow-in-the-dark flying car shows up. Right...
7.) Edward Scissorhands: "I think you should come home with me," says the nice lady putting antiseptic on Johnny Depp, wearing the freakiest costume in existence. Suddenly he's in her car as they drive past houses painted solid red, yellow, green, etc. Two Words Here: Just Strange.
8.) Return to Oz: Dorothy and her talking chicken friend end up in a world filled with angry rock people and notoriously bad claymation. The whole thing is one big head trip waiting to happen.
9.) Pee-Wee's Big Adventure: It's funny that I thought this movie was really serious when I watched it as a little kid. But really, what's with the huge fat guy in the tub, the evil clowns, the Marge trucker lady, the Alamo's basement, the estranged criminal who cut a tag off of a matress, and finally, the "Movie" version of Pee-Wee's adventure at the end? Yep, it was serious... seriously trippy.
10.) Beneath the Planet of the Apes: What do you get when you mix monkeys, Charlton Heston, and a cult of psychic people living underground who sing freaky hymns and pray to a big nuclear bomb? That's right, you get this movie, by far the weirdest of the Planet of the Apes flicks, and that's saying a lot.
Well, that was fun and exciting. Coming soon: My Ultimate "un-numbered" List of the Most Mind Bending Movies of All Time. And this is a really long post, so I'll get going now. Until next time: Snaps for you!
