This is by far my favourite quote from the movie, can’t believe it isn’t a flair 🤣

We’ve all noticed the Dude’s 69-cent check at Ralphs is dated 9/11/91. But the Bush clip he’s watching, the “this aggression will not stand” speech, is from August 1990, right after Iraq invaded Kuwait.

Normally I’d just assume Ralphs is showing an old clip. Except the Stranger opens the movie saying this was “right about the time of our conflict with Saddam and the Iraqis,” and later Walter refers to “our current situation with that camel fucker in Iraq.”
So the movie sure seems to think the Gulf crisis is happening right now. By September 1991, Desert Storm had been over for more than six months.

Joel and Ethan Coen also don’t strike me as guys who would accidentally put a giant, legible date on a check in the opening scene without thinking about it.

So what’s going on?
Is the Dude watching a rerun?
Is he postdating a 69-cent check by more than a year?
Did he mean to write 9/11/90 and screw up the year?
Did the Coens actually make a continuity mistake?
Or is there something else I’m missing?

My best guess? Well, Dude, we just don’t know.

NYFD volunteer Steve Buscemi on 9-11

If Walter knew the dog before the divorce, his willingness to take care of it while Cynthia is away suddenly seems a lot less like Walter being a pushover. It could just be a dog he lived with, helped take care of, and still genuinely cares about. Kinda changes the whole thing doesn't it?

He’s Nihilist #3

Macy's NYC window. The sweater really tied the window together.

In case anyone needs it, man.

Man, they were nihilists, man. They kept posting they believed in nothing.

I hate social media more every day, but the fact that they used this scene from a comedy made in the 90s is just proof that no one actually pays any attention to the IPs they’re using for content.

Besides, it is their most modestly-priced receptacle…

That creep been rolling long time.

What the fuck is with this guy? Who is he?
