Good news everybody, you can watch the whole thing on YouTube for free...

I bought that one, with actual money (only, like, £3, admittedly, but still). I also bought the first one, and it was totally worth it just to see Jeremy Irons' frothing overacting.

What is it about Napoleon Dynamite? don't get me wrong, its an awesomely classic movie, but its not really about anything and kids love it! my daughter had a sleep over a couple weeks ago with some friends and they watched it. our nearly four year old also stayed up and soaked up every second of it! he hardly if ever sits down for a full movie
absolutely amazing movie!
Of course since then he has taken the Napoleon way of saying Ugh! and God! into an art form even Josh Heder would admire:-p
again, amazing movie!

ND came out when I was in either junior high or high school; I'm not going to bother looking it up.
Everyone in school was quoting it. It became irritating very quickly.
I finally saw a couple of scenes and it was... well, exceptionally stupid. I couldn't and to this day can't see for the life of me what is supposed to be so entertaining about it.

There were three, coicidentally released once every five years (or so) for the express purpose of keeping the rights to the film names in perpetuity, from what I can gather.
Cheap, and juuuuuuuuuust enough to attempt to satisfy the needs of the contract. Which it may or may not.
(People were suing people over this, last I heard. I've not heard of the results.)

My son is watching clips of construction workers in Honduras load and unload heavy equipment on to trucks in a decidedly unsafe manner... Oh my god that truck is entirely too small for that Excavator!!
Man I miss driving heavy equipment... oh well as soon the little guy starts going to school :-) until then nights at the toy store will have to do

Should I wash myself, dress, and go to rock club this evening or not? Some friends are going but I can't decide if I want to... There will be people there. What's worse, that particular club demands an entrance fee. Not much, a price of one beer or little more than one small soda at pub (I was buying food for two days in the past for that - when I was totally broke, and people didn't believe me that one can survive on so little) but I vehemently dislike paying for nothing - and mere entering the club qualifies as nothing to me. There is a significant chance that I would be coming, saying hello to my friends, sitting bored for about two hours and then go away...

Also, probably anything interesting will be happening once I decide that I am bored and fed up with all those people around, and deafened by the noise, and go home.

Ah but betting for money is a fool's bet, what have you got to lose betting on a good time out with friends:-)
I'd do it, but I also HATE loud clubs and understand why you wouldn't want to, I'm also super cheap and hate cover prices, but it could also be a good time and as you said you never know...
Have fun if you do go :-)

Long story short: Chuck-E-Cheese's style restaurant in the early 90s-ish needs a security guard for the night shift. (That's the player.) When you actually play the game you learn:
A. The terrifying animatronics are let loose to roam the halls at night. They're also haunted and will try to get into your office to murder you. (There's also one animatronic that will, randomly, just magically appear in the office and kill you. Even if the doors are shut.)
B. Someone apparently murdered some kids in the restaurant in the past and stuffed their bodies in the animatronics. Probably the source of the hauntings.
C. You're on extremely limited power and using your security cameras, lights, or doors drains it. Power goes out - total blackout followed by murdering.
Second game is a prequel involving a different but related set of murders and set in a prior restaurant in the 80s. Third game is a 30-years-after sequel where the remnants of the now-defunct restaurant are being used to start up a haunted house... which is literally haunted by murderous robots and hallucinations.
Again, not my type of game to actually play, but the lore is fascinating. Now if only it didn't keep me up all hours of the night after just a few videos on YouTube. Not even watching playthroughs, just theorizing and evidence conjecture.

Yeah i am not clicking that.
Honestly it's not even the regular robots that scare me all that much. It's the ones that break the laws of physics. Golden Freddy in the first game, Shadow Bonnie and the Puppet in the second, and the various hallucinations in the third.
Especially Shadow Bonnie. Good grief that thing is terrifying looking.

sounds like a playable advertisement for shotguns. Cuz I would be walking around with one If I were a night watchman.

The creepiest thing? It seems loosely related to real-life events. Emphasis on the "loosely" of course, but yeah.
(Also, that it "bears"* a striking resemblance to ShowBiz Pizza. Man, like, no one remembers that place...)
* Do~hohohohohoh~! I'm so witty!**
** No.

Okay, okay.
Except the guys who make Gravity Falls.
EDIT: Okay, and accept me, I guess.
EDIT 2: Alright, fine, and accept for anyone else that remembers it. SHEESH INTERNET. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW. >:(
:D

Oh yes definitely. Sadly the game does not arm you. Period. The first game gives you absolutely nothing but your cameras and doors. The second gives you a flashlight but takes your doors away. The third keeps the cameras and flashlight, still has no doors but you can temporarily close off air vent passages, and gives you sound files to distract the animatronics away from you... but your machinery is in poor condition and has to be rebooted regularly, leaving you defenseless for precious moments.

Yes, this was the video that introduced me to the series and got me first interested in the mysteries in the games, despite the fact that I'll never play them. GT's videos are actually pretty tame, showing very little of the creepier content; it's the related stuff in the side videos that I made the mistake of poking my head into that was nightmare-fuel-filled.

I finally failed my Procrastination save/Constitution (Heat) check and installed the window air conditioner. It's only been running about a half hour, but my urge to kill most everyone within a half-mile radius has diminished quite a bit.

I was slicing ham preparing to dice it for a quiche (which was delicious) when the block of ham tumbled and the chef's knife cut right through the middle of my ring finger nail. I'm not sure how it's doing. When I took the first bandage off to show people, they said to COVER THAT DAMNED THING UP EW EW EW so I've kept it covered since.
2 projects due Monday for my online front-end web development course. I thought they would be easy. I should not have procrastinated. Sleep, bye-bye.

o.o
:(
I'm praying for a quick recovery.
Back. Ouch, my legs.
Pros: I
dancedbounced on the dance floor a bit.
Cons: People. Noise. Ugh.No interesting events, no interesting conversations, no interesting new people met. Well, there were some people I haven't met before but they were not very interesting.
Hah! Praying for a quick recovery in a very different way.

Nah. I only had single rum with cola. I am already up and as fine as it can be with the wrong mattress.
