    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I never saw "Night of the Hunter", but remember the scene from "Do the Right Thing." Made me wonder how many of the people who have that tattoo on their hands actually know the story. I've met at least two alt models who have it and never thought to ask at the time.

    What makes a teaser or trailer work for you?

    Same. Give me the genre and premise, then a few non spoilery scenes to let me see what the actor interaction and directing look like. Done.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Back in the mid-late '90s, there was a government austerity programme in Ontario. This was just before I started working there. Budgets were cut to the bone.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Same. It's 27 years here. I'm currently at 25 vacation days a year, can carry 50 before cut-off, and generally get an extra week (sometimes 2) between Christmas and New Year as the uni is shut down.

    Dude, 20 years ago you started a rumour campaign about me, for no reason, to try and mess up the reputation I had built over a lifetime. Why in hell would I want you as a "Facebook friend"?
