You can’t believe I haven’t seen them. Sometimes, I can’t believe I haven’t seen them because you’re so incredulous that I haven’t seen them. Some of the so-called greatest 80s movies, LIKE-OMG-EVER. And that’s exactly how you say it, too. The Goonies. I KNOW. I just haven’t gotten around to seeing it because it’s like “a [...]
Many a spooky story is told about people using the reply all functionality on an email when they meant to send a snarky comment to just one person.
