The clown runs a huge company and is frequently captured on good-quality video. Not a cryptid.

The question lies in his relationship with fellow sandwich clowns The Burger King and Jack in the Box. Is this a trinitarian situation, one of syncretic prosopopoeia, or convergent evolution?

"Kids should never mess with elders, even asshole elders" is a strong principle in older generations, but "Keep your New York bullshit out of [non-Yankee region]" is an even stronger one.

Any thief can steal or burgle, but a heist requires a team of specialists, and probably a flashback sequence.

If you're wondering about the roof trapdoors it makes perfect sense for humans who have mastered neither hinge nor lock living near big cats who have not yet mastered the ladder.

a poster with a picture of an ufo and the words `` i want to believe '' . Alt: Fox Mulder, from the X-Files, hucks a sharpened pencil at a poster with a picture of an ufo and the words 'I want to believe.' Throwing sharpened pencils is one of his hobbies. And yet the show never had him huck a sharpened pencil into a cryptid 's eye; what we might have had.

The vibe I got from...was it the Reckoning? was that the hunters are Rowdy Roddy Piper in 'They Live!' with the glasses permanently on, and also the glasses show some really decent folk are aliens, and things will probably end as they did for Piper (poorly, with a side of domestic terrorism).

That's just truth in television --about 70% of human-compatible planets look like Southern California. That's why you see the same in "The Twilight Zone," "Outer Limits," etc.

Dark Crystal is non-negotiable. Willow is on the list. Hellboy 2: The Golden Army has some good bits to it; likewise the equally Doug Jones-intensive Pan's Labyrinth. I don't know if I'd class The Hollow as more fantasy or folk horror but it's got a delightful take on the Fey.

Sorta, but the current admin really seems to be pro-coal and anti-renewables (also pro-disease, starvation, etc.) for cargo cult reasons rather than economic ones.

This is a specific Weird 'Murican Trad Catholic flavor; I went to college with a bunch of them.

Essentially Francoist; the "me" part is the main focus of the Gadsden flag for them. The kind of guy that gets a clerkship to our current Supreme Court.

What are some classic Halloween books, in the same way 'A Christmas Carol' and 'Hogfather' are Christmas stories? I know Zelazny's 'A Night in the Lonesome October' and Bradbury's 'The October Country' and 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' --are there others?
