Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

At the top of the coming hour, as the timestamp on this post indicates, The Synchtube Troper Coven will, for the first time in nearly two years, finally be revisiting Bruno Mattei's plagiarism masterpiece Shocking Dark, aka Terminator 2, aka Aliens 2, aka Alienators, aka Contaminator, aka Appalling Italian B-Movie.

(Although, what you really want to do is skip to the end of this trailer, @ 1:14, and treat yourself right this moment to a good, long laugh.)

But first, swing by now for new Retsupurae, more of Cybersix, and some other stupid stuff!

I fitted the Kroenen mask to my head, and made it so I can wear a peaked cap over it, like in the opening scene of Hellboy.

At the top of the coming hour, as the timestamp on this post indicates, The Synchtube Troper Coven is rewatching the anthology horror film H.P. Lovecraft's Necronomicon: Book of the Dead', which, in addition to the mouthful of a title, also contains Jeffrey Combs as H.P. Lovecraft, David Warner, Belinda Bauer, and the bad guy from The Barbarians.

But first, swing by now for new Retsupurae, Cybersix, more of the worst CGI animation ever made, a vote to decide one of two cinematic atrocities to revisit for our annual Awful Friday, and some other stupid stuff.

I'm still visiting my dad and his family. Although I like them, I can't wait to go home. My stepmom is a die-hard Christian and we have to listen to Christian music EVERYWHERE (in the car, in the house) and she makes us have prayer meetings every day. I am also a Christian but I was raised Episcopalian and Episcopalians aren't usually this enthusiastic about their religion.

Sympathies. You Americans are stuck with a pretty crappy oligopoly in that regard. Then again, it looks as if Google is intending to start competing in that sector as well, so that may improve.

Got up early to get ready for a lunch not-date.

Aaaaagh, tried to go to bed early but it still took me over an hour to get to sleep so I look all underslept. That's not very presentable.

Out of total boredom, I was browsing through Kickstarter and ran into this. Okay, some of the projects' summaries in the search results were interesting. This is just... no.

EDIT: Okay, should I take that last one back or just throw this onto the fire?

Happening now, the The Synchtube Troper Coven is kicking off Awful Friday, our single worst night of the year, with the annotated cut of Ratatoing.

Then, at the top of the coming hour, as the timestamp on this post indicates, we revisit the horrid disasterpiece that is Nukie.

In a world where MAC & Me is widely viewed a horrible ripoff of E.T. - The Extra Terrestrial, Nukie even more blatantly stole from 'MAC & Me' for its own sinister agenda!

Be very, very afraid.

Ah, feeling amorous? It happens to people occasionally, and often passes quickly.

Detailed version

Electric Nova was almost behind the sweet veil of sleep. Vowing to stay awake, she refreshed the page continually for new posts. Deep in her heart there was a desire- amorousness that never faded away. Doubts and fears and hopes and dreams flew around in her head.

Tommorow would bring something. She knew little of what it was, but..... She liked surprises.

Now there's an idea. I'll bet even the most mundane life could be made more interesting by narrating it in this fashion.
