Red Flags ft. Montaigne

A spooky ghost story to tell on Halloween night, or an uplifting love ballad that should definitely be turned into a rom com? (Ryan Reynolds/Barrymore). Massive thanks to Montaigne, what a legend!

It's in response to "I like it for the plot". He was trying to confirm what she viewed the plot as, thereby confirming what she actually liked about it.

[@planguy9575]

It's also a way to determine both why and in which way she enjoys the movie. Like, it might be more understandable if she's like, "Okay, this is going to sound really weird, but hear me out..." Instead she described the movie in one succinct sentence that tells you exactly why she loves the movie. Also the costume design.

After seeing this I looked up the plot to The Human Centipede out of morbid curiosity, and I also read the synopsis of its two sequels. The sequels get pretty meta: in the second movie, the first human centipede movie is the main characters favourite and he attempts to create his own human centipede. In the third movie, a prison ward (?) has seen both the first and second human centipede movies and wants to make a human centipede out of the prisoners. Human centipede movies like to have other movies in the series canonically exist within them. What am I trying to say? This video could have very well been the plot of another human centipede movie. I don't know if Tom did this on purpose, but if he did, that's very clever

Honestly what the fuck, this was my first time ever meeting someone on tinder Edit: I should explain that it wasn't just that she liked hannibal, of course that isnt weird in itself! It's the fact she kept talking about wanting to consume human flesh, the amount of detail in her murder fantasies, and the fact that i am a very small and easily frightened person that had never been on a date before In My Life.

This unlocked a memory from around when Human Centipede came out. I had a group of friends who would cheat on tests by blinking in Morse Code and through sign language.
