    That's such a crazy story about the lady brawl. The food lines I was in weren't so bad. Although those tacos did beat up my insides a little bit. I did arrive a few hours earlier so had more time to wander around and such.

    I ended up in a super-packed area on the beach for the main event. Most people around me seemed to be enjoying everything, even the new stuff, which I LOVED and sounded awesome. Agree on Red Mosquito being a big highlight, especially as it was my first time seeing it (my only non-Gigaton "get" of the night). I would try your "walk closer to the surf" maneuver next time. I spent like 5 minutes trying to find you JP but eventually couldn't move anymore. Maybe next time.

    Yeah seeing rumors but not sure when. I was talking to the girl at Grindcore and they said it's happening they just don't know which day.

    Also there's currently a Philly PPA tow truck towing cars off my block with notices up. But that may have to do with the gigantic fire that happened yesterday.

    Gotcha. Yeah, hearing something about today/this evening but not positive. What burned down? I did not hear about this

    Innnnteresting. That’s cool.

    so shooter I literally drove through the set going to a penn state game, leaving my original place at 2nd and arch. 21 bridges had a ton of scenes filmed right outside my work, sunny had a scene filmed from my front steps (before I lived there but mac’s original house is right across the street) and now this. Not too shabby

    Yeah I was just out for a walk. Tow trucks are flying all around the area. They're clearing out a lot of spots from Wednesday to Friday.

    Our last place in SoCal was out near the end of a jetty in the marina and the street that lead out there was the only way in/out.  There was a little "fisherman's village" with shops, piers, and restaurants right before our complex.  It seemed they were always filming there, and it fucked stuff up every time.  Being where we were and knowing so many people who worked in that industry (including my wife) there was no novelty, only pain in the ass.

    The Bluth banana stand was one of the things I always laugh at being "there".

    Good luck dealing with that crap.

    The banana stand is great! That’s a good one. 

    Yeah I haven’t seen enough to be annoyed, but I’m sure it’s annoying if it happens all the time. The only mildly annoying thing I experienced with shooter, and to a lesser extent 21 bridges, is basically no notice it’s going to happen and boom you can’t go certain places. I basically drove through the set of shooter, leaving my parking garage since they didn’t tell us. 

    But yeah, Good day Philadelphia literally just showed our house. So bizarre. Don’t think we’re heading back to see it, but kinda want to.

    Hopefully this movie is decent. All I've known of Adam Sandler in the past 15-20 years that didn't suck was this, because of my kids:

    I love old school Sandler but agree it has been a while since something I liked was out. 
    Tried watching the jewelry one where he got props for his acting but turned it off.
    That's My Boy and Grown Ups, maybe?  Both totally idiotic, but that is sorta his thing.

    I give him credit for taking his crew of friends with him and knowing his movies are garbage that make mountains of cash. I'd do the same thing. Just off the top of my head the last thing that I really liked of his was Anger Management. Reign Over Me and Funny People I thought were ok. Oh, and that standup special music jawn he did was not bad either, actually pretty good! Dude loves him some oversized shirts.

    I was going to say reign over me, funny people and grown ups. 

    Didn’t hate uncut gems, didn’t love it

    I liked Big Daddy -- still call any old dude with white hair/beard "Old Man Balls" -- worked with a guy that looked like the old man from Big Daddy for years and this was how I referred to him.
