Can we all take a moment to admire the fact that 2801 technology still supports emoji functionality? 🤩 👍 🕷 💁 🩰 💫 🍆 🧊 💅 👁‍🗨 🎯 🤡 🔋 🐈 💲 🧙‍♀️ 🐦💋 🐜 👽 🕶 ⚡ 🕵🏻‍♀️ 💦 💦 💦

It seems like they're pretty set on calling us 'Hatchlings', so... hello, fellow Hatchlings, I'd like to play a game.

Two truths and a lie. I'll start.

  ① Starbucks makes the best lattes.
  ② I've never watched All Dogs Go To Heaven all the way through.
  ③ My birthdate is May 21st. What year? Every year. 😉😉😉 But my party in 2018 was 🔥🔥🔥.

what guy
what?
i'm right
they never get it right, they leave out half the book

( )

[unclesam]

barnes & noble.
my man.
my dude.

this might shock you to hear, so please sit your geriatric ass down for a moment.

books and movies ain't the same medium. you can't copypaste that shit for an adaptation.

[freightcars]

I know that, sam's club
I've watched movies from books IN GENERAL
but I draw the line at the hobbit
I'm not letting Hollywood ruin that one for me

[unclesam]

sam's club - really? you're lumping me into walmart? that's low

but you know what, I'll give you the hobbit. don't watch those. there's three, and no one knows why.
but the lord of the rings movies are treasures, you complete heathen.

[freightcars]

I couldn't think of anything better in the moment

considering how fast you folded on the hobbit, I'm not sure I trust your judgment

[unclesam]

look, humanity made some mistakes.
but so you're telling me you ain't never seen a single disney movie? play adaptation? anything? you just gonna pretend to be a total purist?

[freightcars]

Of course I've seen Disney movies
Fantasia came out in 1940
I told you, it's just the Tolkien stuff, it's one of those
you know
personal
things

private dm/inbox instead of public network

[unclesam]

alright before I cross the line from charming asshole into just plain asshole
we talking personal as in 'it's a preference, I'm just a hardass about it'
or personal as in 'this has actual meaning to me, stop pushing'

[freightcars]

It's not some huge
significant
traumatic
life event thing, but yeah, it's got a special place or whatever you wanna call it

[unclesam]

alright. no lord of the rings marathon for us. between this and marvin gaye, you're just dead set on breaking my heart, aren't you?
so what kinda movies do you like?

[freightcars]

i LIKE marvin gaye

( you are so frustrating wilson )

scifi
fantasy
2001: a space odyssey was good, before aliens ruined space for everyone
they did a good job on pirates of the Caribbean

why, is this another email underscore thing?

[unclesam]

only if you give me the wrong answer on a silver platter

this is more a 'I'll see what I can unearth at the theater so I can drag you into an insomnia movie night sometime' thing.

[freightcars]

Feels like I can't reply being an asshole after that gesture, so
thanks

( hurgh how does he make reciprocal smalltalk without sounding stupid and weird or like he's a 14 year old on a date ​)

what do you watch

( Excellent nailed it what a fluid transition )

[unclesam]

yeah well, I need an alternative to letting you wipe the gym floor with me.
plus occasionally I can be nice. shocking, I know. I'll try not to make a habit of it.

I'm good with sci fi and fantasy.
if you're into trash talking movies, dumb action flicks are always and option, too.
and I'll find an alligator to feed you to if you tell anyone, but I might attempt to sneak a period drama or two in there.

[freightcars]

a period drama huh
are you like a Mr. Darcy kind of guy or is it more of a Hamilton thing

[unclesam]

we don't slander the emotionally constipated dreamboat in this house, buck, shut up. faced with my ma and sister, pa and I knew to keep our mouths shut and appreciate.
and hey I won't knock anything that's got good music, even if it ain't my usual speed.

[freightcars]

fair enough, can't argue with that

[unclesam]

that is the most sensible thing I've ever seen come out of you

yo did you hand your comms off to someone else to impersonate you?

[freightcars]

of course not
it's me, your friend borky
nothing to see here
what's your social security number

[unclesam]

you think you're hilarious, don't you

[freightcars]

I am hilarious

[unclesam]

what you are, chuckles, is an idiot. with one entire brain cell that you don't even have sole custody over.

[freightcars]

flattering you think I have anything at all going on up there

[unclesam]

you realize any endorsement from me is questionable, right? I've jumped at a helicopter feet first. and had one drop on top of me a few days ago. disregard this, maybe I just have personal issues with helicopters.
no plan beats bad plan any day though.

[freightcars]

does that mean you're the one that has joint custody of the brain cell
