“DEMONSTRATE ALL YOU WANT...” - Len Elmore Tar Heels, Boise State, CFB, & the Stanley Cup Champion Carolina Hurricanes. #BringBackHomeWhites BBQ ≠ social event. Dad broke kayfabe on me when I was 4. My wife is scheduling my next vacation as I type this.

Hello good people of North Carolina: If you plan on eating at or getting takeout from a Chinese restaurant that's in the same shopping center as a Food Lion in the next few days, please shoot me a DM before you do!

in 2005, Three 6 Mafia won an Oscar for Best Original Song for the film Hustle and Flow ("Hard Out Here For A Pimp"). Dolly Parton was nominated in the same category. After celebrating heavily, they had a nice personal note awaiting them when they arrived back home.

An excerpt of the oral history of Three 6 Mafia winning an Oscar in 2005 as told to Variety.

DJ Paul: I woke up in my hotel room the next morning with my housecoat on and a bottle of champagne in my hand, and the phone ringing because the Hollywood Reporter or somebody was calling for an interview and taking pictures of us. Then we did some interviews and flew back home.

When we landed there was so many people in the airport waiting for us, there was applause, the minute we stepped off the airplane people started going crazy, it was almost like a little parade at the airport for us. It was crazy.

Juicy J: When we got back to Memphis, Dolly Parton actually sent us a letter congratulating us and signed it, saying she was just happy [the award] came back to Tennessee.

Rewatching Bloodline again and Ben Mendelsohn is an absolute force of nature here. The simultaneous chaos, tragedy, and impending sense of doom he brings to literally every second he is on the screen is incedible.

With the Cup in Raleigh and the players/staff getting their day with it, great events are starting to pop up. You can see it at the Bulls on Tuesday, and next Friday, 9/4, Jeff Daniels is using part of his day for Pup with the Cup!

Watching Napoleon Dynamite for the first time and maybe it was a “you had to be there in the moment” deal, but this shit is one of the dumbest and most unentertaining piles of garbage I’ve ever seen.
