  1. Final time-lapse process for Inktober 2025 - Day:31 MAJOR Award

    I had a lot of fun this year, I hope you all enjoyed following along. I’m VERY glad I started early and was inspired by so many of you. You are some seriously talented folks. Let’s do this again next year, if we’re not all rioting in the streets by then I mean.

  2. @gocu54 Just remember, if you see the word "fragile" it's not Italian. <grin> #AchristmasStory refference there.

  3. Dreamed last night of a movie, "A Christmas Story" but it's a Bollywood movie in India with a hot metal slide and instead of Santa Claus it's Ganesh the 🐘 elephant whose foot comes down toward [not Ralphie]. Definitely a dream because Ganesh said "ho ho ho."

  4. Jean Shepherd, who wrote the articles on which "A Christmas Story" was based (and narrated the film), was a ham radio operator. So why isn't the movie about a kid who wants a ham radio for Christmas?

    Cartoon from 2013 for the late, lamented Popular Communications Magazine.

  5. It never occurred to me until just now that Ralphie’s mom just leaves Scut Farkus bleeding in the snow when she leads Ralphie away after the fight.

  6. #FröhlicheWeihnachten (Originaltitel A Christmas Story) ist eine Filmkomödie aus dem Jahr 1983.

    Der Film handelt vom Alltag eines kleinen Jungen namens Ralphie in der Vorweihnachtszeit. Ralphie hat einen ganz besonderen Wunsch: Er möchte zu Weihnachten das Luftgewehr Red Ryder BB Rifle bekommen, das einen eingebauten Kompass im Schaft besitzt.

  7. @QuirkyFilms The “old man” (Ralphie’s dad) in “A Christmas Story” is constantly reading the paper. I didn’t appreciate until recently how well the actor uses the newspaper as a comedy prop 😆
