Last time I saw "10-C" as us pros call it was on a giant-ass 70mm curvy screen, bigger than any of you have ever seen. The picture was so crystal-clear I was afraid that Anne Baxter's nipple would poke my eye out. Yikes! The audience was dressed like the cast of the movie and knew all the dialogue. I dressed like old H. B.'s character in one of me Mum's old dresses and actually was carried into the theater by some fat guy in a robe. Unfortunately I was recognized by Judith Anderson and my bearer exclaimed "I didn't know your were famous!" I ended up sitting behind Zina Bethune and Ethel Waters. When H. B. did his cameo the audience started cheering and singing and clapping and dancing while throwing dust, water bottles and figs at the screen while screeching their lungs out. My date, who wore Jungle Gardenia perfume, suddenly got a headache and had to leave. Zina and I hooked up and went out for chocolate malteds at Schwab's after the show. Man, I would have loved to have planted my fig tree in her new land...

Today at Starbucks I overhead two girls (late teens I believe) discussing "Blackbiird" and how talented Beyonce is to be able to write such an amazing song. I said nothing. Far be it from me to burst anyone’s bubble. I would have gladly burst their bubble. That's how people get smarter. I would tell them to look up "The Beatles"... I would suggest the scenario didn’t actually happen in the first place...... It happened. I was sitting next to the girls. Both had phones in their hands and could've googled the facts in 5 seconds. Neither bothered to do so. You sit in Starbucks looking at what young girls are looking at on their phones? That's weird...............

That's also how people begin to avoid your miserable know-it-all ass.

How did he even know what lululemon was? That and other details about their conversation, he was paying close attention. And zero clue that this kind of scrutiny is inappropriate, as well as announcing this behaviour on a public forum.

He should have gone over to these girls put them straight on the fact that it's a beatles song and then lecture them on playing their b yonce cee records on a crosley cruiser and need to buy a £10,000 Turntable for their analogue frontend or not bother and just listen to Spotify on their digital downstairs

He *might* have sat near some girls enjoying the tune; from there it's all fantasy, particularly "writ[ing] such an amazing song"

The image I got was some rando at a shopping mall food court in Akron, eating onion rings and fixating on a nearby table.

My wife stumped me on this one. Wife: Why is his name Ringo Starr? Me: His real name is Richard Starkey. Ringo is his nickname, his professional name, he wears rings, you know. You saw the Help movie, right? Wife: No. Me: Okay, we'll see that sometime, anyways... The Starr part comes from shortening his last name, and it's also obviously a play on words. Wife: But he has 2 R's in his last name? Me: Yeah. Wife: (facetiously) So his name is really spoken as Ringo Star R. Me: No, the last R is silent, silly. Just Ringo Starr. Wife: So why does he need 2 Rs? Me: Um... I dont know.
