Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein are still stone-cold classics. History of the World and Spaceballs, um, I'm not 13 anymore, I guess.Kory wrote: ↑13 Aug 2018, 1:18pmYeah I still like WW, but it's only because of the nostalgia.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
God, Robin Hood: Men In Tights and Dracula: Dead and Loving It were excellent when I was 13.
Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
Young Frankenstein and Dracula were my favorites. YF is still gold, Dracula has some moments but isn't quite as timeless.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
I got pulled over on Saturday for going 80 in a 60. My drivers license expired on my birthday and I had the wrong insurance card in my glove compartment. The cop let me off with a warning. I guess he thought I was cute*!
*He let me off because I'm white.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
It can be both!
I've never, ever been let off with a warning for anything. It kinda annoys me. What the hell good is white male privilege if, on top of all the other benefits I get in life, I don't also escape breaking the law consequence-free?

Also middle class. But definitely a white middle-class cute.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
This is the first time in my long, storied history of speeding that I was let off with a warning.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
I've got a pretty good story about this. I was driving with my then-girlfriend to a local park and she was directing me because I'd never been there. She directed me into a right turn only lane, only to realize as the light turned that we needed to go straight, which she quickly and loudly proclaimed to me. I jammed on the gas to get into the left lane in the intersection and promptly got pulled over. The cop strolled up and asked me if I knew what I did wrong, and I told him I did but that I was being directed by my girlfriend in the passenger seat. He laughed heartily, patted me on the shoulder, and said "ah, I understand." He went to run my info and came back and let me off with a warning.
