We need SkinnySki but for bike lanes

The bike lane on Ford Parkway was completely covered in snow and ice. Interestingly, I could see the exact point where the bike lane turns into a second car lane because that was completely clear. Weird how that works.

A lot of people laughed really hard at the person, who definitely wasn't me, that did this

Omg I hope that's true. It always bothered me how agile the ents are.

Tbf, you are completely right!

My actual recommendation for how to fix Two Towers while staying true to the book is to add a real-time enactment of the entire Entmoot. That would definitely help the pacing.

Kemps is a good one. The brand they have at Costco this year is a little too thin and could’ve used a lighter hand on the spices, but it works.

Oh definitely. If they hadn’t invented a whole new plot for Two Towers they could’ve kept Cirith Ungol in that story and included more in RotK.

On the other hand, I’m not sure how well the scouring would actually translate to the screen.

Ever since I learned how to make eggnog from scratch I have had an extremely deep appreciation for the store bought stuff.

How the fuck are these Yuri accounts still appearing?

Anyway, here’s a block list. Merry early Christmas.

Just a reminder that Christmas was invented by polar bears to sell more Coke.

Oh gross. I assumed it was more in line with the price for Adderall, which is a lot less. Maybe it’s cause Vyvanse’s generic is so new? I’m sorry you have to deal with that 😫

Oh and the scouring of the Shire.

But those would just make the movie more perfect. Their absence does not make it less perfect.

Okay the only thing that could improve it is if they showed more of the Houses of Healing and gave us more Eowyn and Faramir. I do love the bit they added in the EE, but I want MORE.

Can you take the generic? If so, you could consider switching to that and paying out of pocket for it. It’s waaaaay cheaper.

The other best part is every goddamn second of it because this movie is literally perfect

Mount Ngauruhoe

Mount Ngauruhoe

Me smiling after finally getting to the highest point of the hike. This was only the halfway point. Mount Ngauruhoe is in the background.

Now for Return of the King, I present our trip through Mordor.

We did the 10-hour hike through the Tongariro Alpine Crossing and honestly barely made it to the end. Mount Ngauruhoe served as a stand in for Mt. Doom and some of the Mordor scenes were filmed in this area.

If you ever have to replace your Christmas tree stand, I highly recommend getting a rotating one. It makes decorating the tree sooooo much easier.
